[Intro] C5 F G F G F G C Am [Verse 1]
F
Something in the middle of the side of the store

F                           G 
Got your attention when you ask for more

F
I was excited to be part of your world

F                            G
To belong, to be lost, to be mostly the two of us

F
Something I was stealing for no reason at all

F                           G    C
They hang me higher than a disco ball

C                                   Am
But you talked them into letting me go
N.C. It's no Picasso, Michelangelo
F
Something 'bout the jewels you wear

F                   G
Shiny shiny bangles on your wrists

F
And at the Masquerade ball

F                                   G
You feel trapped in a vault, in an empty aquarium

F 
If suddenly you're out of the woods

F                 G                          C
Then inside of an alley you're out of words

C                     Am         G
Well I thought it was radium at first
[Chorus]
F     G               F
     Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

G        C             Am
Is it so bad? Is it so true?

G           F
Is it still you?

G               F
Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

     G                      C
It's more than that, we're chained

C                          Am
And there's no one else to blame

Am
For us two
[Verse 2]
F
Some things they don't matter till they matter to you

F                            G
They stole that money from a homeless girl

F
The truth is we're all to blame

F                         G
There are lies and moral consequences

F
We started at the end of the line

F                G                   C
To end up giving up to a couple, who cares?

C                                   Am
When you talked me into letting you go

Am
No more coral on the atoll

F
Something 'bout how hard you learned

F             G
Kamikaze in a hopeless world

F
Do you remember the last time you laughed

F                      G
And I laughed and you left and I left?

F  
Send me on the lonely other side of the world

F                  G              C
With a couple of guys and no alphabet

C                 Am
Put two and two together

Am
We'll make it last forever
[Chorus]
F     G               F
     Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

G        C             Am
Is it so bad? Is it so true?

G           F
Is it still you?

G               F
Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

     G                      C
It's more than that, we're chained

C                          Am
And there's no one else to blame

Am
For us two
[Break] Oh... F G F G F G C G Am [Chorus]
F     G               F
     Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

G        C             Am
Is it so bad? Is it so true?

G           F
Is it still you?

G               F
Just because of you

      G                F
These things I have to go through

     G                      C
It's more than that, we're chained

C                          Am
And there's no one else to blame

Am
For us two
