Intro
E B C#m C#m (x2)
[Verse 1]
E B C#m C#m
The fog in my head, it thickens,
E B C#m C#m
Nothing is clear anymore.
E B C#m C#m
But the small girl inside me still searches
E B C#m C#m
for the man who slipped off his horns.
E B C#m C#m
Said not all of us are so scary,
E B C#m C#m
no need to hide under your sheets.
E B C#m C#m
And so she invited him into the bed
E B C#m C#m
and felt him rock her to sleep.
E B C#m C#m
He loved my face to my feet, but
E B C#m C#m
you keep it under lock and key.
[Chorus]
A E B C#m
Will you tell your friends your horns are fake?
A E G#
You stitch them to your head.
A E B C#m
You can’t grow your own ‘cause you’re the boy
A E G#
who feels too much in bed.
A E B C#m A E G#
*VOCALISE*
[Verse 2]
E B C#m C#m
The pain in my head, it kills me,
E B C#m C#m
and I stumble through everyday tasks.
E B C#m C#m
And the small girl inside me just keeps holding on
E B C#m C#m
but you’re gone. You’re already back
E B C#m C#m
to the place where you paint on a permanent scowl,
E B C#m C#m
where you spit in the eye of pain.
E B C#m C#m
When they start asking you just how good I was,
E B C#m C#m
I wonder what you will say…
E B C#m C#m
will you tell them that I sunk you deep
E B C#m C#m
or pretend you don’t feel, you don’t break?
[Chorus]
A E B C#m
Will you tell your friends your horns are fake?
A E G#
You stitch them to your head.
G# A C#m B C#m
You can’t grow your own ‘cause you’re the boy
A E G#
who feels too much in bed.
A E B C#m A E G#
*VOCALISE*
[Bridge]
A E B C#m
And I know that you’ll keep crawling back
A E G#
to your needle and thread.
A E B C#m
‘Cause no one wants to be the boy
A E G#
who feels too much in bed
A E B C#m A E G#
*VOCALISE*
[OUTTRO]
E B C#m C#m
The fog in my head, it thickens,
E B C#m C#m
Nothing is clear anymore.
E B C#m C#m
But the small girl inside me still searches
E B C#m C#m
for the man who slipped off his horns.
E B C#m C#m
for the man who slipped off his horns.
E B C#m
for the man who slipped off his horns.
