Scissor Sisters – Intermission (Ukulele)

D                                           G
   When you're standing on the side of a hill

A                                       B
Feeling like your day may be done

F#
Here it comes

G#
The strawberry smog

A#                        A
Chasing away the sun

D                                 G
Don't let those precious moments fool you

A                                 B
Happiness is getting you down

F#                            G#
A rainbow never smiles or blinks

A#                                A
It's just a candy-colored frown

  Dm                         A
You were going on at half-past seven

  Dm                                 A
Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine

Gm                          Dm
All the angels want to know

Gm                                 A
Are you lost or treading water?

  Dm                         A
And you're going on your fifteenth bender

  Dm                         A
But you've only got a matter of time

Gm                          Dm
Yes we've all got seeds to sow

Gm                           A
Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter

Bm                  G
When the night wind starts to turn

Bm                G
Into the ocean breeze

Bm                     G
And the dew drops sting and burn

Bm                   G
Like angry honey bees

D                        G                 A                             Bm
That is when you hear the song falling from the sky

G                    D
Happy yesterday to all

A                    D
We were born to die

D                                           G
Sometimes you're filled with the notion

A                              B
The afterlife's a moment away

F#                     G#                                
You want to tell someone the way that you feel

A#                                        A
But then you ain't got nothing to say

D                                           G
You fight for freedom from devotion

A                                       B
A battle that will always begin

F#                                      G#  
With somebody giving you a piece of advice;

A#                                        A
By the way you're living in sin

  Dm                         A
Now there's never gonna be an intermission

  Dm                         A
But there'll always be a closing night

Gm                          Dm
Never entertain those visions

Gm                                A
Lest you may have packed your baggage

  Dm                         A
First impressions are cheap auditions

  Dm                         A
Situations are long goodbyes

Gm                          Dm
Truth so often to living dormant

Gm                                A
Good luck walks and bullshit flies

Bm                         G
When the headlights guide your way

Bm                       G
You know the place is right

Bm                    G
When the treetops sing and sway

Bm                     G
Don't go to sleep tonight

D                        G                 A                             Bm
That is when you see the sign Luminous and high:

G                                  D
Tomorrow's not what it used to be

G                                  A
We were born to die

G                                  D
Happy yesterday to all

G                                  A
We were born to die
