[Verse 1]
D By the light of the LED display of a VCR recorder D You kiss my neck, I whisper in your ear, "This is my downfall" Bm As you squint and you grimace D/F# G We both know your heart's not in it D By the glow of a thousand fireflies in a Travelodge ensuite D They think the future's bright as halogen, we know it's pretty bleak Bm And I am trying to be sexy D/F# G A Biting at the air that falls in front of me

[Verse 2]
D Your telegrams are more and more less detailed by the day D And all the characters are strangers
And the pubs have different names
Bm I tell a joke I'd like to meet them D/F# G But they loathe me and I hate them back D Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Fondness makes the absence longer
D Length loses my interest Em I'm a realist, I'm insatiable
Swapped counting days until I fly
D/F# G A With hours before your reply
[Chorus]
D E You said he got his teeth fixed D I'm gonna break them E G D I've got a heart on fire E G He said he's got his sights set D On getting to ya Bm I've got a fist on fire
[Bridge]
C# D/F# You feel terrified at the thought of being left behind A E Of losing everybody, the necessity of dying Bm C# Oh, we kid ourselves there's future in the fucking E But there is no fucking future G I'm just practicing my accents, picking at old sutures
[Verse 3]
D
I taught myself the only way to vaguely get along in loveIs to like the other slightly less than you get in return
Bm D/F# G I keep feeling like I'm being undercut D Charlotte says, "It's more constructive than the one in Canada D When you got drunk, ate loads of crisps
And threw up by a football pitch"
Bm I know it is, and really, that's what worries me D/F# G A I feel like I should hurt
[Chorus]
D E You said he got his teeth fixed D I'm gonna break them E G D I've got a heart on fire E G He said he's got his sights set D On getting to ya Bm G D/F# I've got a fist on fire
[Bridge]
G# I cannot emphasis enough that my body A# Is a badly designed, poorly put-together vessel C#m Harbouring these diminishing, so-called 'vital organs' A I hope my heart goes first, I hope my heart goes first!
