Intro:
F#5 C#5 Ab5 C#5
I cannot say ?oh sweetness?
F#5 C#5 Ab5 C#5
like he could
F#5 C#5 Ab5
cause I cannot play a lullaby
C#5 F#5 C#5 Ab5 C#5
like it should
F#5 Ab5 C#5 x2
Verses:
F#5
I used to cry but now I have to laugh
Ab5
because she?s got that torment
C#5
to a fine art
F#5
smart like a foxy
Ab5
and craf-ty-as - A-cat
i?m looking up
as i?m lying on my back
F#5
bite the beast
if i want a big piece of the pie
Ab5
but she?s taken the feast
C#5
in the blink of an eye
F#5
I can-not-jus-ti-fy
what?s going on
Ab5
- it feels so right
C#5
when it seems so wrong
F#5
like a plot hatched
in the sweet spot of that trap
(G#m )
- ask what she?s schemes
( C#5 )
she say ?oh this and that?
( F#5 )
then she snaps like a camera
in black with a flash
(G#m )
puts the drum in the drama
( C#5 )
the hand in the clap
F#5
she?s a map with no bearings
attached - no
Ab5
safety-in-this-match
C#5
fire you can?t catch
F#5
then zap I was struck by that
bolt before dawn
Ab5
then by breakfast honey
C#5
we was signed and sworn
Ab5 Bb5 B5 C#5
F#5 C#5
I?ll give you all night movie marathon
Ab5 C#5 F#5 C#5
Ab5 C#5
and a triple expresso so you can stay awake
F#5
it might be late - but
C#5 Ab5
it?s never too late for that lovin
C#5 F#5 C#5 Ab5 C#5
my sexy babe
F#5 C#5
something always telling me
Ab5 C#5
?save prayers before dawn?
F#5 C#5
cos what happens when I?m with you
Ab5 C#5
makes me shake my head then smile and yawn
F#5 C#5
I?m worn out but I?m beaming
Ab5 C#5
and it seems that we are dreamy
F#5 C#5 Ab5 C#5
as we head out through that strange old morning door
(Verse Two)
