Chords

Based on the recorded album version. F's are optional depending on how you sing it. Note: The original has some delay between the chord and lyrics, which I chose not to represent in the tab for clarity's sake. [Intro] G C (x4) [Verse 1]

G
You're in your own little world

C
An expensive birdcage

G
Like a plastic baby

C             F
In a Fabergé egg

[Pre-Chorus]

G
I saw you today

At the Café Blasé

       C
And thought of the nights

When we had firefights

G
Nameless seaside ghost town

F                         C
That's where I go when I see the moon

G                                         C
Living in an abandoned firehouse with you

[Instrumental] G C G C [Verse 2]

G
You're in your own little head

C
In a field of sunflowers

G
And there's blood in your mouth

C                     F
And there's rats all over town

[Chorus]

G
Take me out to the beach

                      F          C
And I'll tell you my secret name

G
Take me under the sea

             F
And we'll derail the trains

G
Let's run away into the cave

F
I still love you, I still love you, baby

[Instrumental] G C G C [Verse 3]

G
You're in your little box

C
With ribbons in your hair

G
And there's dust in your mouth

C         F
And worms in the air

G
Hideous city of unknown words

F                           C
That's where I live when I go to sleep

G
In an abandoned firehouse with you
