E                    F#mPoke at my iris, why can't I cry about this?
A               E/B               B/F#Maybe there is something that you know that I don't?

   E                          F#mWe adopt a brand new language, communicate through pursed lips,
A              E/B        B/F#You try not to put on any sexy clothes or graces.

E                               F#mI might never catch a mouse and present it in my mouth
A                        E/B              B/F#And make you feel you're with someone who deserves to be with you.

             E                                     F#mBut there's one thing we've got going and it's the only thing worth knowing.
         A               E/B             B/F#It's got lots to do with magnets and the pull of the moon.

     E                             F#mWhy won't our love keel over as it chokes on a bone?
A                 E/B             B/F#We can mourn its passing and then bury it in snow.

    E                             F#mOr should we kick its cunt in and watch as it dies from bleeding.
    A                E/B             B/F#If you don't want to be with me just say and I will go.


A       F#m       C#m      x4

      E                                 F#mWell we can change our partners this is a progressive dance,
    A               E/B                B/F#But remember it was me who dragged you up to the sweaty floor

     EWell this has been a reel
         F#mI've got shin-splints and a stitch from weed(?)
     A             E/B                      B/F#But like a drunken night it's the best bits that are coloured in

        E                             F#mShould look through some old photos I adored you in every one of those.
    A             E/B           B/F#If someone took a picture of us now they'd need to be told that we 

    E                     F#mHad ever clung and tied a navy knot with arms at night
    A               E/B            B/F#I'd say she was his sister but she doesn't have his nose.

E                           F#mAnd now we're unrelated and rid of all the shit we hated,
    A             E/B                  B/F#But I hate when I feel like this and I never hated you.
