[Intro]
C#m G#/C B F#/A# A G#7 F#
[Verse 1]
C#m G#/C B F#/A#
Saturdays involved making our entrances into life outside
A G#7
We've been in this room too long
F#
Recreation is keeping us self contained and aware
C#m G#/C
Of each other's form
B F#/A#
Still and in full strides just the same
A
Keeping us warm
G#7
Walking in straight lines
F#
Tucked into sleep at night
Coddled and pacified
[Chorus]
C#m
Our versions of mothers
G#/C
So new to me
B F#/A#
This so new to me
Having you around
A
So new to me
G#7
This so new to me
F#
Having you around is...
[Verse 2]
C#m G#/C B
What if we decide to live by choice
F#/A#
All this time I knew
A G#7
That average was something to fall back on
F#
After genius ends
C#m G#/C
I watch video only difference is
B F#/A#
It's flat and we miss sparks of lightning storm
Behind wet faces
A
Slip my pants back on
G#7
And rewind it back one more
E/G# F#
The tape stopped before I was back alone
[Bridge]
C#m G#/C
I'll be back before
B F#/A# A
The street lights on, before the daylight's gone
G#7 F
I was spoiled by lavish thoughts
C#m G#/C
They don't compare, no not at all
B F#/A# A
And had this been the past I might not know
G#7
What to do with all
F#
Of what you've shown
C#m G#/C B
What you give, my words can’t hold
F#/A#
If acts of god
A G#7
Writes us odd
F# C#m
Least we did us perfect
G#/C B
Perfect, perfect
A G#7 F#
Love, love, love
Perfect, perfect
C#m G#/C B F#/A# A G#7 F#
If you never been in love
[Outro]
C#m G#/C B F#/A# A G#7 F#
