Verse 1
Bm
G
Bm
F#
Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
Bm
A
D
You were practicing a magic trick
F#
Bm
G
And my thoughts got rude,
Bm
F#
as you talked and chewed
Bm
A
D
On the last of your pick and mix
F#
Bm
Said, "You're mistaken if you're thinking that
G
Bm
F#
I haven't been called "cold" before"
Bm
A
D
As you bit into your strawberry lace
F#
Bm
And then offered me your attention in the
G
Bm
F#
form of a gobstopper
Bm
It's all you had left
A
D
F#
and it was going to waste
Chorus 1
Bm
Your pastimes, consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Bm
"Crying Lightning"
And how you like to aggravate
the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons
Bm
Bm
Bm
Bm
The next time that I
Verse 2
G
caught my own reflection
Bm
F#
It was on it's way to meet you
Bm
A
D
Thinking of excuses to postpone
F#
Bm
G
You never looked like yourself from the side
Bm
F#
But your profile could not hide
Bm
The fact you knew I was
A
D
approaching your throne
F#
Bm
With folded arms you
G
Bm
occupied the bench like toothache
F#
Bm
Stood and puffed your chest out like you
A
D
never lost a war
F#
Bm
G
And though I tried so not to suffer
Bm
F#
the indignity of a reaction
Bm
A
There was no cracks to grasp
D
F#
or gaps to claw
Chorus 2
G
And your pastimes,
Em
consisted of the strange
Bm
And twisted and deranged
G
And I hate that little game you had called
Em
"Crying Lightning"
Bm
And how you like to aggravate
the icky man on rainy afternoons
G
Em
Uninviting
Bm
But not half as impossible as
G
everyone assumes you are
Em
Crying lightning

And I hate that little game

you had called "Crying"
