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