Chords

[Verse 1]
             B           A/C#               E
Well he lit you up like Amber Waves in his movie show

                     B
He fixed you up real good

      A/C#             E
'til I don't know you anymore

     B                 A/C#                   E
From ballet class to a lap dance straight to video

                  B
And the pool side news

         A/C#         E
Was that he would be launching you
[Pre-Chorus]
     B      A/C#       E
Into every young man's bedroom (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
On DVD and magazine (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
A private rite of passage (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
To every boy's sweet dream With their paper cuts
[Chorus]
    F                           Am
You said "he's got a healing machine

                F                  G
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"

     F                               Am
You say "there's not a lot of me

        F                     Em
Left anymore, just leave it alone

    D                     C
But if you're by and you have the time

          Am       G              D
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining

Am        G                   D
Lately it seems like they're drowning"
[Verse 2]
           B
He could light you up

     A/C#                     E
And summon every swan to the Lakeside

                B              A/C#    E
Off to Cabo San Lucas for some optical stimulus

         B                          A/C#
Then you started to guess there was someone else

           E                         B
Though His flint glass seeing all of you

A/C#             E
Immersed in his sepia
[Pre-Chorus]
     B      A/C#       E
Into every young man's bedroom (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
On DVD and magazine (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
A private rite of passage (you gave it up)

     B      A/C#       E
To every boy's sweet dream With their paper cuts
[Chorus]
 F                           Am
You said "he's got a healing machine

                F                  G
It glows in the dark, glows in the dark"

     F                               Am
You say "there's not a lot of me

        F                     Em
Left anymore, just leave it alone

    D                     C
But if you're by and you have the time

          Am       G              D
Tell the Northern lights to keep shining

Am        G                   D
Lately it seems like they're drowning"
[Outro]
     D               C
So I went by cause I had the time

              Am       G              D
And told the Northern Lights to keep shining

     Am         G                D
They told me to tell you they're waving
