      GmWell, (355333@1)guy in a skeleton costume
Bb (x1333x@1)                       EbComes (x43121@3)up to the guy in the Superman suit
                        GmRuns (355333@1)through him with a broadsword

I flipped the television off
      Bb (x1333x@1)                  EbBring (x43121@3)all the bright lights up
               GmTurn (355333@1)the radio up loud
C (x32010@1)I don't know why I'm so persuaded
F (133211@1)That if I think things through
EbLong (x43121@3)enough and hard enough
D (xx0232@1)I'll somehow get to you
             GmBut (355333@1)then you came in and we locked eyes
    CYou (x32010@1)kicked the ashtray over as we came toward each other
           EbStubbed (x43121@3)my cigarette out against the west wall
D (xx0232@1)And quickly lit another
GmLook (355333@1)at that

Would you look at that?
C (x32010@1)We're throwing off sparks
Gm (355333@1)        F (133211@1)       C (x32010@1)        GmWhat (355333@1)will I do when I don't have you
                       Bb (x1333x@1)  GmTo (355333@1)hold onto in the dark?

     GmYes, (355333@1)everybody's gonna need a witness
Bb (x1333x@1)                           EbEverybody's (x43121@3)gonna need a little back up
                       GmIn (355333@1)case the scene gets nasty

You throw the attic window open
      Bb (x1333x@1)                    EbAnd (x43121@3)I throw myself all around you
                        GmAnd (355333@1)night comes to Tallahassee
C (x32010@1)                                 F (133211@1)I don't know why it's gotten harder to keep myself away
EbThought (x43121@3)I'd finally beat the feeling back
D (xx0232@1)It all came back today
            GmAnd (355333@1)then we fell down and we locked arms
   CWe (x32010@1)knocked the dresser over as we rolled across the floor
Eb (x43121@3)I don't mean it when I tell you
D (xx0232@1)That I don't love you anymore
GmLook (355333@1)at that

Would you look at that?
CThe (x32010@1)way the ceiling starts to swerve
Gm (355333@1)        F (133211@1)       C (x32010@1)        GmWhat (355333@1)will I do when I don't have you
                             Bb (x1333x@1)  
When I finally get what I deserve?
