Chords

[Intro] E [Verse]
E
"Why is the world so creepy?" she asked

E
Till a car full of haircuts drove past

E          
A backseat full of the boys

B
  I told her that it isn't

A         E                    B      
  That it, that it's exquisite

                                   A        E
But like love it has it's barbarous threats
[Verse]
E
Still in spite of the cads

E
And the stoop shouldered teens

E
I know I'm losing you

E
I know what that means

Bb
  I told her that it isn't

Abm
That it's real exquisite

B                                            Bb    E
But like love it can have it's stubbed toe effects
[Verse]
C#m                     G#m                      A
And just like after she heard the word iridescent

                      F#m                E
And everything was iridescent for a while

C#m       B                              A
It wasn't long before she exalted out of nowhere

                        E
"Isn't this exquisite?"

E
Once you've said "mmm" in unison

E
And "oh" in double surprise

E
And shared relief with a mutual "phew"

E                          B
And a look in each others' eyes
[Verse]
                   A
I tell her that is isn't

             E        B
Insisted that it isn't

                             A                E                
Because like love it has too cunning effects

B
  I told her that it isn't

A         E                    B      
  That it, that it's exquisite

                                   A        E
But like love it has it's barbarous threats

E
"Why is the world so creepy?" she asked

E
After a car full of haircuts drove past

E
A backseat full of the boys

E
Breaking glass, throwing off glass
