[VERSE 1]
E A E Don't you remember that snowy December C#m F#m B when we went to see "Singing in the Rain"? E A E I shouldn't have smuggled in that bottle of gin C#m A E 'cause after the film, I could barely walk
[CHORUS]
B But, darling, don't you know A E it's only human to want to kill B E a beautiful thing
[VERSE 2]
E A E When I was seven summer lasted forever C#m F#m B I used to chase fireflies through the woods E A E Tiny green lights circling warm August nights C#m G# C#m F#m B I'd catch them inside a washed-out old jar E A E I dreamed of the stars with the jar by my bed, C#m A E but each morning my pretty bugs were dead
[CHORUS]
B Oh, darling, don't you see A E it's only human to want to kill B E a beautiful thing

[VERSE 3]
E A E We should have been dancing like lovers in the movie, C#m F#m B but I fell and cut my head in the snow E A E I wanted to tell you all the ways that I loved you C#m A E but, instead I got sick on the train
[CHORUS]
B But, darling, don't you know A E it's only human to want to kill B E a beautiful thing B But, darling, can't you see A B it's only human to want to kill E a beautiful thing
