[Verse]
E F#m E F#m
You know what's
E F#m E F#m
wrong with me You know
A B A B
phrenology. You saw my
C#m E
injury You can
A B
tell just by looking at my skull
[Chorus]
G D C
Contrecoup, on the rebound
G D C
Contrecoup hurt me again
C G D G
And the second was worse by far than the first,
C B
'Cause it made me limerent
[Verse]
E F#m E F#m
When my
E F#m E F#m
head was hit I bounced
A B A B
away from it. Or as
C#m E
someone who is craniosophic would say
A B
The brain went the opposite way
[Chorus]
G D C
Contrecoup, on the rebound
G D C
Contrecoup hurt me again
C G D G
And the second was worse by far than the first,
C G D G
Cause the first one woke my feelings for you
C G D G
But the contrecoup made my words untrue
C B
'Cause it made me limerent
[Bridge]
Am
Which is to say, how it goes
Am7 C
Couched in terms no one knows
C7
And as if the choice were slim
C D
As if there's no synonym

You know what's

phrenology. You saw my

[Chorus]
G D C
Contrecoup, on the rebound
G D C
Contrecoup hurt me again
C G D G
And the second was worse by far than the first,
C G D G
Though the impulse is strong, the connection is weak
C G D G
And I know what to say, but forgot how to speak
C B
When it made me limerent
