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