Chords

[Intro] Am G Am G [Verse 1]
            G
When you’re known far and wide as a wizard of words

                                     G7
But you spend all your time with the lizards and birds

        Am                         C                            G
And you don’t make a sound and you don’t have a thought in your head

         G
Well the moon gets heavy and the night gets blurred

                                       G7
And you don’t crave affection from the wicked world

       Am                C                           G
You prefer the scales of justice and the feathers of bed
[Chorus]
G                   G7               Am
  I just can’t look into the eyes of any living mammal

D         C                    G
  When my blood’s running this cold

G                  G7             Am
  I turn the music up so loud it erodes my teeth’s enamel

     D             C                  G
Keep one hand free   for the other to hold
[Instrumental] Am G Am G D [Verse 2]
          G
We’re the last two members of a dying race

       G7
When I said the wrong thing you threw your drink in my face

        Am                 C                    G
And the stakes are total extinction, but that’s just as well

           G
For if the world’s survival depends on love

                                        G7
And that’s just the resource that we’re running out of

     Am                        C                         G
Then baby you can eat shit and die and I will see you in hell
[Chorus 2]
G                  G7                   Am
  I just can’t get comfortable with our fingers laced together

D                 C           G
  When you’ve got retractable claws

G                   G7                    Am
  I’d like a little time offstage but the show goes on forever

     D                   C                G
Keep one hand free for a   Zen round of applause
[Outro]
     Am   G   Am   G
Oh boy
