Kimya Dawson – Chemistry (Ukulele)

   C
my heart is on my sleeve my head is in the sand

       F
i said how did we end up here? you said happenstance

      C
but i didn't understand so i made other plans

  F
i ran to the ocean washed the blood off of my hands

  C
i washed away my tears washed away ten years

F
washed away the empty space in-between my ears

            C
and you said all that i mean is that you and me

       F
didn't meet because of fate but rather probability

        C
and you said the truth's like corn and lies are like weeds

             F
you said the schroedinger equation collapsed perfectly

      C
and i said mercy me be patient please

               F
'cause i don't know a goddam thing about the birds and the bees

       C
i just know what i'm like and i'm like what i see

     F
even though it's hard to see because you just blinded me

               C
and if there's one thing i learned in chemistry

              F
it's that the gain of electrons is reduction, obviously

        C
but you can't see electrons without machines

              F
and you can't tell from my inflection if i'm being mean

    C
and i don't know if i can take you seriously

           F
sometimes elections depend on the absentees

       G                                 F                                C
and my family and my friends and all the little kids that love me make me strong

       G                                F                   C
and no matter how this ends i know i'll never ever ever be alone

     G        F     C
some day i'll be an old lady

       G                F          C
with a big dress and an apron, a babushka and bare feet

        G         F            C
i'll be out in my garden on my hands and knees

            G                      F              C
and i'll be singing a song that is really sad and sweet

F         G                   C
Mommy and Daddy your baby has grown

        F                     G                  C    F C
and the smell of the cold wet dirt reminds me of home
