G                                      D
They take advantage of him all of the time

       Em              C
Their fingers rape his cavities

G                    D
Probing for a hidden cliche

       Em                C
He's a fruit that got in gravity's way

          G                              D
He's the first to tell you he's full of shit

           Em            C
Like thats half a compliment for men

           G                       D
Though hes waking up in puddles of piss

     Em                 C
He marinates his metaphors in them

    B
And in this moment

G     D     Em     C    G      D    Em 
La, lalaladada, lalaladada, lalaladada

            C
They'll be falling in love

G     D     Em     C    G      D    Em 
La, lalaladada, lalaladada, lalaladada

G                                     D
She takes photographs of people she knows

           Em                C
She brings out the best and worst in them

     G                         D
And God is buried deep in the folds

        Em                    C
Of her fractured self and the lies that they've told

             G                   D
She used to laugh at everything old

          Em              C
It was a joke that never aged a bit

     G                                     D
But when they robbed her of her infinite smile

          Em                   C
She said maybe I'll just play dead for a while

    B
And in this moment

G     D     Em     C    G      D    Em 
La, lalaladada, lalaladada, lalaladada

            C
They'll be falling in love

G     D     Em     C    G      D    Em  G
La, lalaladada, lalaladada, lalaladada

           Em D Csus  G  Csus
I'm right here and I must admit

G                    D
I've been pining for you

       Em    D   Csus
Your my wish

       G        Csus     D           G
When I touch my self I am conjuring you

           Em  D  Csus
For fresh dirt

G                Csus          G            D
when we talk all night and the minutes are free

       Em D Csus   G      Csus             D           G 
I just hope when I cast my spell you'll be falling for me

Because

Em              Csus
Falling in love could be the first thing

Am                Asus
Falling in love could be the worst thing

Falling in love there's no rehearsing

Asus
