Verse 1
(D major) Well
(G major) Guy in a skeleton costume
(B flat major) Comes up to the guy in the
(E flat major) Su perman suit
Runs through him with a (G major) broadsword
I flipped the television off
(G minor) Bring (B flat major) all the bright lights up
(E flat major) Turn the radi (G major) o up loud (C minor)
I don't know why I'm so
persuaded (C major) (F major)
That if I think things through
(E flat major) Long enough and hard enough (D major)
I'll somehow get to you
But then you (G major) came in and we locked eyes
You (C major) kicked the ashtray over as
we came toward each other
Stubbed my (E flat major) cigarette out
against the west wall (D major)
Quickly lit another
(G minor) Look at that (G major)
Would you look at that? (Gsus4)
(C major) We're throwing off sparks
(Csus2) (C major) (G major) What will I do (B flat major) when
(D major) I don't (F major) have (C major) you (Gsus4)
(Csus2) To hold (G major) onto in the dark?

Verse 2
Yes (G major)
Everybody's going to need a
witness (G minor)
(B flat major) Everybody's going to need a little backup (E flat major)
In case the scene gets nasty (G major)
You throw the attic window open
(G minor) And I (B flat major) throw myself all around you (E flat major)
And night comes to Tallahassee
(G major) (C minor) I don't know why it's gotten
harder (C major) (F major) to keep myself away
(E flat major) Thought I'd finally beat the feeling back (D major)
It all came back today (Asus4)
And then we (G major) fell down
And we locked arms
We (C major) knocked the dresser over as we
rolled across the floor (E flat major)
I don't mean it when I tell (D major) you
That I don't love (E flat major) you any (D major) more
(G minor) Look at that
(G major) Would you (D major) look at that?
(G major) The (C major) way the ceiling starts to swerve
(G major) What will I do (B flat major) when I don't (C major) have you (G major)
When I finally get what I (D major) deserve?
