A                                                 C 
I can barely wait to see your face 
Dm                                               F 
Crack its weary mouth and let the words float into space 
A                                                 C 
I have learned the Mississippi's pain 
Dm                                              F 
Every path I take ends up the same 


Am                 F          G 
My body isn't quite a symphony 
      Am                F                   G 
But if you would put your ears close to me 
        Am                   F                            G 
You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh 
                                           Am          F                 G 
But in this dark room oh my eyelashes are cymbal crashes 



A                                                  C 
I can barely wait to leave this room 

Dm                                                   F 
My nervous heart plays pits ocado, parts inside the tomb 

A                                                    C 
And every empty note will seem to sling 

Dm                                                    F 
Itself against the walls and make them sing 

      Am                          C 
Oh, do do do do-do-do 

Dm                                    F 
Try to catch the truth and broken cells 
Am                               C 
Oh, do do do do-do-do 
Dm                                   F 
Try to catch the truth and you will fail 


Am                 F          G 
My body isn't quite a symphony 
      Am                F                   G 
But if you would put your ears close to me 
        Am                   F                            G 
You'd find that in this dark room at night, oh 
                                           Am          F                 G 
But in this dark room oh my eyelashes are cymbal crashes

You can't hear me now  
You can't hear me now 
You can't hear me now 
Do do do do-do-do 
You can't hear me now 
Do do do do-do-do 
You can't hear me now 

Do do do do-do-do (My body isn't quite...) 
You can't hear me now 
Do do do do-do-do (But if you would put your ears...) 
You can't hear me now 
Do do do do-do-do (You'd find in this dark room at night...) 
(Well in this dark room oh my eyelashes...) 
You can't hear me now 
Do do do do-do-do (...are cymbal crashes) 
You can't hear me now
