Intro
C#m E B F# 2x
[Verse 1]
C#m E B F#
grey on my face and spurs on my tongue and i could be anyone
C#m E B F#
large as a lion stalking his lover, small as the dying sun
G#m B F# E
don’t tell them what you would do in there
G#m B F# E
fist full of flowers and fire for hair
G#m B F# E
feet first, all fumbles, but he wouldn’t care
G#m B F# E
fake human face trapped inside his stare
G#m B F# E
when i’m in this body, put your pressure on me
G#m B F# E
when you’re getting closer, you’re getting further from me
[Chorus]
F# E
but i’m the one who knows better
F# G#m
i’m the one who’s no better
F# E
and she’ll always know better
F# C#m E
and she’s always no better
B F#
C#m E B F#
Oooooooooo
[Verse 2]
C#m E B F#
i could be best and i could be dust and i could be what you think
C#m E B F#
pinned to your collar, proof of your power, code for what you can’t see
G#m B F# E
don’t say it’s me when you know she’ll do
G#m B F# E
things I could dream up and you’ll dream too
G#m B F# E
all legs and all eyes, like any body moves
G#m B F# E
perfect in the right light, like anybody’s truth
G#m B F# E
when i’m thinking clear like the light behind the window
G#m B F# E
oh, i could see it peel off, and the voices become real
[Chorus]
F# E
but i’m the one who knows better
F# G#m
i’m the one who’s no better
F# E
and she’ll always know better
F# C#m E
and she’s always no better
B F#
C#m E B F#
Oooooooooo
C#m E B F#
Oooooooooo
