Gm Well, guy in a skeleton costume BbEb Comes up to the guy in the Superman suit Gm Runs through him with a broadsword
I flipped the television off BbEb Bring all the bright lights up Gm Turn the radio up loud C I don't know why I'm so persuaded F That if I think things through Eb Long enough and hard enough D I'll somehow get to you Gm But then you came in and we locked eyes C You kicked the ashtray over as we came toward each other Eb Stubbed my cigarette out against the west wall D And quickly lit another Gm Look at that
Would you look at that? C We're throwing off sparks GmFCGm What will I do when I don't have you BbGm To hold onto in the dark?
Gm Yes, everybody's gonna need a witness BbEb Everybody's gonna need a little back up Gm In case the scene gets nasty
You throw the attic window open BbEb And I throw myself all around you Gm And night comes to Tallahassee CF I don't know why it's gotten harder to keep myself away Eb Thought I'd finally beat the feeling back D It all came back today Gm And then we fell down and we locked arms C We knocked the dresser over as we rolled across the floor Eb I don't mean it when I tell you D That I don't love you anymore Gm Look at that
Would you look at that? C The way the ceiling starts to swerve GmFCGm What will I do when I don't have you Bb When I finally get what I deserve?
