Verse
F#m
I left your house when you were sleeping
E F#m
Having correctly had my head screwed on
F#m
Tried to find a way to write a note
E
Couldn't get your shower to work
F#m
I sort of wish that it was raining
E F#m
So that I could pull the hood up on my coat
F#m
I'm always happy to be leaving
E
Could be the company I'm keeping
D Bm
Like when you're looking for your shades
D
Rifling through your pockets
Bm
And you find them on your face
F#m E
Ooh I can't escape it, abnormal behavior
F#m
Uncontrollably vapor
E
And on, bout some/
F#m
Thing done
E
Sooner or later
F#m
This strange little arrangement
E
And all of its exchanges
Must cease

I kind of wish that it was New Year's Day

On a vacant street

I cast a long-eyed shadow
