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