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