Now our gardens grown
F#m Em
Took so may years
A D
We worked so hard now we?re here
G
We have grown so strong
D F#m Em
I could say anything to you right now
A D
And it wouldn?t change a thing
G A F#m G
I, I, I get the feeling you might be?
Autistic
G
Just a little bit,
A F#m
Just a little tiny bit, yeah
G Em
Oh-oh autistic
A
The way that you speak,
Bm
The things that you do
Make me think
G
That you don?t quite connect
G
With the outside world
It?s something that you wouldn?t even notice
If you didn?t know you well
But you and I have been in love so long
I know that I can tell you
You?re my beautiful,
Slightly autistic girl
When you look at me,
Do you see a man?
Or just a stack of cylinders?
Just a bunch of shapes
When people talk,
Do you just watch their lips?
And enjoy the patterns
I, I, I get the feeling you might be?
Autistic
Just a little bit,
Just a little tiny bit, yeah
Oh-oh autistic
It?s such a relief
I can finally say
And I know you know I love you
So you won?t take it the wrong way
Autistic, autistic?
Oh-oh autistic, oh-oh autistic
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh? girl!
Autistic guitar solo!
(Scod does really fast fretwork on the high strings but just plays the A string out of
time. When he finishes he does the classic rock hand gesture and gazes at it and slowly
puts different fingers up and down with an amazed look on his face)
Ah?
Ah?
Ah?
It?s ?cause our love?s so true
I can say this to you
You should be thanking me
For my honesty
Where every wound has been
There grows a stronger flap of skin
I think we?ve reached a higher place
Now I?m?
Looking at your face
It?s slightly big
I, I, I
Wonder if you have a bit of
Downs Syndrome
Just a little bit,
I?m just thinking out loud here
Downs Syndrome!
The size of your face,
The space between your eyes
Your ruddy cheeks
And total trust of strangers
In the outside world
It?s something that you wouldn?t even notice
If you didn?t know you well
But you and I have been in love so long
I know that I can tell you
You?re my beautiful?
Such a special girl
You?re my beautiful?
Slightly special girl
You?re my beautiful?
Why are you angry, girl?
