Verse 1
Bbm
Gb
Bbm
F
Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
Bbm
Ab
Db
You were practicing a magic trick
F
Bbm
Gb
And my thoughts got rude,
Bbm
F
as you talked and chewed
Bbm
Ab
Db
On the last of your pick and mix
F
Bbm
Said, "You're mistaken if you're thinking that
Gb
Bbm
F
I haven't been called "cold" before"
Bbm
Ab
Db
As you bit into your strawberry lace
F
Bbm
And then offered me your attention in the
Gb
Bbm
F
form of a gobstopper
Bbm
It's all you had left
Ab
Db
F
and it was going to waste
Chorus 1
Bbm
Your pastimes, consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Bbm
"Crying Lightning"
And how you like to aggravate
the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons
Bbm
Bbm
Bbm

The next time that I
Verse 2
Gb
caught my own reflection
Bbm
F
It was on it's way to meet you
Bbm
Ab

Thinking of excuses to postpone
F
Bbm
Gb
You never looked like yourself from the side
Bbm
F
But your profile could not hide
Bbm
The fact you knew I was
Ab
Db
approaching your throne
F
Bbm
With folded arms you
Gb
Bbm
occupied the bench like toothache
F
Bbm
Stood and puffed your chest out like you
Ab
Db
never lost a war
F
Bbm
Gb
And though I tried so not to suffer
Bbm
F
the indignity of a reaction
Bbm
Ab
There was no cracks to grasp
Db
F
or gaps to claw
Chorus 2
Gb
And your pastimes,
Ebm
consisted of the strange
Bbm
And twisted and deranged
Gb
And I hate that little game you had called
Ebm
"Crying Lightning"
Bbm
And how you like to aggravate
the icky man on rainy afternoons
Gb
Ebm
Uninviting
Bbm
But not half as impossible as
Gb
everyone assumes you are
Ebm
