F#m B E A
Verse
E / Riff 1
She made a move on me after I lit her fire
C#m A C#m A B E / Riff 2
OOooo-oooooo-oo-oo-ooooo
E / Riff 1
I bought her magazines and kept her up all night
C#m A C#m A B
Keep her cool, go back to school, try not to lie
A / Riff 3
Pre-Chorus
Riff 4
Throw away my genesis, my genesis, caught up with you
Siding with my sensitive, my sensitive, if I follow through
Chorus
Riff 5 (I'll denote the chords so you can play those, or follow with the riff)
F#m B E A
It’s a line between head and heart
F#m B E A
Hold on to reason as it falls apart
F#m B E A
Peel away my thickest skin
F#m B E A
I hesitate and you pull me in
verse 2 (same as first verse but the oooo's are different)
In the live recording they use Riff 2 during the lines
We burn our skin and whisper things about our friends
C#m A
Oooooo-ooooo
(Recording)
We jump the bridge and hold our breath and we descend
We dance around the room, around the elephant
(Live)
We dance around the room, around the elephant
The grass is greener now on both sides of this fence (live)
Pre-Chorus
Riff 4
Throw away my genesis, my genesis, caught up with you
Siding with my sensitive, my sensitive, if I follow through
Riff 5 (I'll denote the chords again so you can play those, or follow with the riff)
F#m B E A
It’s a line between head and heart
F#m B E A
Hold on to reason as it falls apart
F#m B E A
Peel away my thickest skin
F#m B E A
I hesitate and you pull me in
E A
Pull me in (x3)
F#m B E A
I hesitate and you pull me in
E A
Pull me in (x4)
