VERSE 1:
Em G There's no box to tick for red, so I put down blue instead, cos C G It's closest there's to grey in the categories. Em G And the veins within the whites are a statement of demise, C G Doe Eyes you should stay at home licking batteries. Em D I feel like I'm the host of a terrible game show, and the C G Guests on today's quiz are celebrities. Em D Won't respond to any clues, they're just cracking jokes for views, C C But the answers to these questions mean everything.
CHORUS:
G Am I had a friend who, had made a flag day, Em C Blood on their hands from shards of a heartbreak. G Am I have known friends to, crack from love's weight, Em C Blossom in ribcage, until their backs break. Em D C Em D C Oh, it won't get better, that doesn't mean it's gonna get any worse. Em D C Em D C Your final draft's a life-long love letter, signed to the man who will be driving your hearse.
VERSE 2:
Em D Salacia's in the depths, and if I avoid the nests, C Threaten I'll cuckold you Neptune, for definite. Em G Meet between the dog and wolf, with the hoar frost underfoot, C And I'll show you every fire in Delphinus.
A heart of stone, rind so tough it's crazy,
That's why they call me the avocado, baby.
A heart of stone, rind so tough it's crazy,
That's why they call me the avocado, baby.
Em D May she who casts the first fist of dirt across the casket C Have mourners lick the mud from her fingernails, Em D 'Tween the breadth'a your span, I was a renaissance man, C Books of lies stacked either side, you were my carrell.
CHORUS:
G Am I had a friend who, had made a flag day, Em C Blood on their hands from shards of a heartbreak. G Am I have known friends to, crack from love's weight, Em C Blossom in ribcage, until their backs break.
