[Introduction] Bm [Verse 1]
Bm                G                             D     A  Bm
So I opened the front door, you walked in all handsome

      A           G
And ready for something you saw in my eyes

      Bm                    G
Right here, we sat and we tripped out

                 D   A Bm         A          Em
Saw celestial mosaics,    and I fell and I crawled over and held your hand
[Pre-Chorus 1]
    G      A        Bm
And nobody worried about the roof being blown off

   G          A             D          F#
So I went farther than I'd ever gone before
[Chorus]
Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis

              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath

                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet

                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread

                               F#m              Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window
[Verse 2]
Bm                   G                               D       A  Bm
And so I climbed the stairs and bled, and here was a starseed

       A                                      Bm
Right here he came to us in the bed in our bedroom

                     G
And you trusted me enough to follow me anywhere

       D              A  Bm      A            Em
Or the other way around,     the other way around as well
[Pre-Chorus 2]
    G             A            Bm
And I blocked my nose and dove in the deep end

    G             A            D             F#
And swam like my life depended on it, and it did
[Chorus]
Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis

              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath

                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet

                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread

             Em               F#m               Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window
[Hook]
Em  D
Oh, no

F#  G  Em A#m F#
Oh, no
[Verse 3]
Bm                       G                     D   A  Bm
Right here, in this very backyard, we promised forever

    A          G                             Bm
And we put our helmets on and threw the confetti

                     G
And then there's the phone call

           D          A          Bm          A           Em
Telling me to breathe in through my nose and out my mouth
[Bridge]
                 G            A       Bm
And out came our girl, faster than we thought

    G        A        D     F#m
And now I am beyond recognition

                 Bm                            D
I guess that's a good thing, and still, I want to go deeper
[Chorus]
Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis

              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath

                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet

                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread

                               F#m              G       E  D  F#  Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window
[Outro] Bm C#m Bm C#m Bm
