Intro:

F#       C#      Abm        C#
I cannot say ?oh sweetness?
        F#     C# Abm C#
like he could
      F#       C#     Abm
cause I cannot play a lullaby
C#      F#     C# Abm C#
like it should

F# Abm C# x2

Verses:
  F#
I used to cry but now I have to laugh
           Abm
because she?s got that torment
C#
to a fine art
F#
smart like a foxy
                    Abm
and craf-ty-as - A-cat

i?m looking up

as i?m lying on my back
         F#
bite the beast

if i want a big piece of the pie
          Abm
but she?s taken the feast
       C#
in the blink of an eye
  F#
I can-not-jus-ti-fy

what?s going on
     Abm
- it feels so right
        C#
when it seems so wrong
       F#
like a plot hatched

in the sweet spot of that trap
 (G#m )
- ask what she?s schemes
        ( C# )
she say ?oh this and that?
        ( F# )
then she snaps like a camera

in black with a flash
        (G#m )
puts the drum in the drama
   ( C# )
the hand in the clap

        F#
she?s a map with no bearings

attached - no
Abm
safety-in-this-match
C#
fire you can?t catch
     F#
then zap I was struck by that

bolt before dawn
       Abm
then by breakfast honey
       C#
we was signed and sworn

Abm Bbm B C#

              F#              C#
I?ll give you all night movie marathon
      Abm                C#            F#  C# 
Abm C#
and a triple expresso so you can stay awake
            F#
it might be late - but
     C#                     Abm
it?s never too late for that lovin
   C#     F# C# Abm C#
my sexy babe
F#               C#
something always telling me
      Abm            C#
?save prayers before dawn?
         F#               C#
cos what happens when I?m with you
         Abm                C#
makes me shake my head then smile and yawn
    F#                C#
I?m worn out but I?m beaming
       Abm               C#
and it seems that we are dreamy
      F#                    C#                  Abm  C#
as we head out through that strange old morning door
