[Verse 1]
                            C#m7
Well I guess I'll treat her right

                       Bsus4            Asus2
I guess I'll treat her right more this time

                  C#m7
I'll try not to rely

             Bsus4              Asus2
Try not to rely on the perfect line

               C#m7
And I see no boundaries

               Bsus4
Except for the ones I'm in

      Asus2
And I don't expect you to overcome them
For that's my job description [Verse 2]
      C#m7
In a world of players and private eyes

  Bsus4
Unless you realize this

          Asus2
There's a whole lot you could miss

                        C#m7
Do you know which one I am

              Bsus4
I am the cigarette smoking man

Asus2
Once an hour I light the flower
And burn baby burn [Verse 3]
            C#m7
When is it your turn

                      Bsus4
Lord tell me when the sun goes down

          Asus2
Because I feel much better then anyway
Well I see much much better then anyway
        C#m7
Well I feel exposed

    Bsus4
Although I feel at home

Asus2
Dressed as a black plastic rose
All flowing head shoulders knees and toes
   C#m7                  Bsus4            Asus2
We dance, we dance, we play, we rant and rave

        C#m7                 Bsus4              Asus2
Oh´ We dance, we dance, we play, we rant and rave
[Chorus]
          C#m7 (C#m9)   Bsus4 (Badd4)  Asus2
Oh this childlike,     wildlife       is flooring me

          C#m7 (C#m9)   Bsus4 (Badd4)  Asus2
Oh this childlike,     wildlife       is flooring me
[Interlude] C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4 C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4 (Rythm change) C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4 C#m7 Bsus4 Asus2 Asus2 Bsus4 [Verse 4]
             C#m7  Bsus4  C#m7
Early in the morning

            Asus2
Late in the evening

Bsus4 C#m7             Bsus4  C#m7
Evening, we kinda get delirious

                  Asus2 Bsus4
Breaking from the seriousness

C#m7              Bsus4    C#m7
I try not to get disoriented
[Verse 5]
                Asus2   Bsus4   C#m7
Having chewed too many up on my side

          Bsus4        Asus2
Is it any wonder how I miss your smile

Bsus4     C#m7     Bsus4 C#m7
Is it any wonder, ohhh i,

          Asus2  Bsus4    C#m7
is it any wonde--r oh where

          Bsus4            Asus2
Is it any wonder, how I write

Bsus4 C#m7         Bsus4 C#m7
Pag---es layered upon pages

                         Asus2         Bsus4 C#m7
Which to no one else but me can be accounted for

                 Bsus4
For this moments sake
[Verse 6]
            C#m7
I do not become me

    Asus2           Bsus4      C#m7
For path tunnels or straightaways

         Bsus4               C#m7
I do not watch as often as I should

   Asus2     Bsus4   C#m7           Bsus4
So instead I sketch my life a comfortable creature

Asus2             Bsus4
Slow and beautifully----y

C#m7 Bsus4 C#m7 Asus2 Bsus4
y---------------------y

C#m7  Bsus4        Asus2   Bsus4
Sl----ow and beautifully-----y

       C#m7                    Bsus4     C#m7
Oh the smell and tastes of the past nights

                        Asus2    Bsus4    C#m7
Well they're still locked up in my gentle jaw
[Verse 7]
              Bsus4            C#m7
Not that I am wanting them to go

             Asus2   Bsus4
Just that they     are

  C#m7             Bsus4   C#m7
Ouou And I'm very much aware

                 Asus2            Bsus4          C#m7
The madness of slow motion as you move your legs to walk

               Bsus4
I'm very much aware

      Asus4
Of this madness when you talk
[Chorus]
        C#m7       Bsus4      C#m7   Asus2   Bsus2
Oh this childlike, wildlife is   flooring me

        C#m7       Bsus4      Asus2
Oh this childlike, wildlife is flooring me

   Dm7      Csus4
We dance, we play

  Dm7       C       Csus4    Dm7
Oh lord we rant and ra-------ve

   Dm7         Csus4   C
We dance and we play always
