(Sigh) [Verse 1]
D    A            D     A       Bm   A          Bm      A
Longing for your short hair to grow back to the way you like

D      A           D
Thank you for the gesture

A         Bm      A          Bm          A
I regret ever implying that you could be better

C#dim                              Bm    A    G
Didn't mean to empty your perfect body

    C#dim                     Bm   A   G
And fill it with my passing whim
[Verse 2]
D       A    D        A
Easily won, weary of losing

Bm        A     Bm         A
Gullible girl, weak and alluring

     C#dim                                 Bm    A   G
Will we break our rules, get drunk in the dark

C#dim            Bm           A              G
      Laughing aloud at the spinning stars?
G C#dim F# Bm F#m D [Chorus]
D                                      Bm  A  G
Believe me, I'm speaking plainly and painfully

G                                     Bm     A    G
Trying to stay elegant, eloquent and delicate to you

D                                        Bm  A    G
I see you holding your breath with your arms outstretched

F#m                             Bm      A   G
Waiting for someone to come rip open your chest

    C#dim
You take me aside

    Bm    A      G
To solemnly confide

     D                  C#dim
When it comes the time

     Bm                A           G       F#
You plan to give your body to the flame
