C5
I?m sorry that I?m late
C5
I went blind
      E5
I got confetti in my eyes
      F5
I was held up at yesterday?s parties
       C5
I was needed on the congo line

C5
But my dear, oh my dear
             E5
I?d like to fight the good fight for another couple of years
           F5                                           C5
?cause to say the war is over is to say you are a widow

                      C5
You?re not a widow yet!
                      C5
You?re not a widow yet!
                      D5
You?re not a widow yet!
                      C5
You?re not a widow yet!

C5
So this one?s for the critics and their disappointed mothers
         F5
For the cupid and the hunter shooting arrows at each other
               G5
Ain?t no such thing as a saint,
                                   A5
Ain?t no such thing as a sinner, oh

A5
There?s a swan among the pigeons of Barcelona?s floor
           G5
There?s a Samson with Delilahs lining up outside the door
            D5
If you are sharpening your scissors
D5
I am sharpening my scissors,
A5
And I am sharpening my sword
           F5
So you can take me to the dragon?s lair
           A5
Or you can take me to Rapunzel?s windowsill
       G5
Either way it is time for a bigger kind of kill?
                  F5
A bigger kind of kill.

C5
Oh I see your face when I close my eyes
             E5
Oh I see the muscles in your legs from the way you always rise
       F5
To the occasion of catching things that fall
         C5
Like the statuettes on pedestals I tend to build too tall.
           A5
But I have navigated Iceland
            G5
I?ve laid my claim on Portugal
        D5
I have seen into the wasteland
       F5
Oh the future
       G5              A5
Oh the future of us all.

(bridge, i think it's am , learn the guitar solo instead though, it's way cooler)

  F5
I kicked at a whole country
  C5
Of dead, dead leaves last fall
  F5
I kicked at a whole country
  C5
Of dead, dead leaves last fall
  F5          C5
Dead leaves
  F5          C5
Dead leaves
  F5          C5
Dead leaves
  F5          C5
Dead leaves
  F5                      C5
Seen from the back of a train
  F5                      C5
Seen from the back of a train
  F5                      C5
I rode away from your station
  F5                      C5
I rode away from your station
  F5                      C5
They drifted in the air
  F5                      C5
They drifted in the air
  F5                      C5
Like memoirs of old conversations
  F5                      C5
Like memoirs of old conversations
  F5                      C5
Sprung from a leather case
  F5                      C5
Sprung from a leather case
  F5                      C5
You opened in the wind
  F5                      C5
You opened in the wind
  F5                      C5
To watch the papers chase each other
  F5                      C5
To watch the papers chase each other
  F5                      C5
Into oblivion

  F5                      C5
(You?re such a champion
  F5                      C5
You?re such a champion
  F5                      C5
I hide behind your sun
  F5                      C5
You are the champion) x3

  D5                                A5      F5       C5
So you can take me to the dragon?s lair
  D5                                A5      F5       C5
You can take me to Rapunzel?s windowsill
  D5               A5             G5
Either way it is time, oh it is time
                      F5
For a bigger kind of kill?
                    C5
A bigger kind of kill

                   F5
A bigger kind of kill
                   C5
A bigger kind of kill
                   F5
A bigger kind of kill  (repeat between C and F till ending)
