Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]On [C]the[Am] eve[C][Am][Dm]
[Am]of my 25th birthday
You come [C]knocking at my door at [G]night
I tried a [Dm]hole in my head
A hole [Am]in my pocket
[C]Nothing makes me feel as [G]high
As the sil[Dm]houette of your [Am]body in the
[C]dim of the hallway [G]light
[F]You move left (nothing had me
prepared [Em]for this)
I move [F]right (nothing had me
[G]prepared for this)

[Verse 2]
[C]Lordy knows you're still
turning me on
[G]Holding heavy hands with heavy hearts
[F]The cranes on the building sites
Ex[G]tract the people suspending
them mid-flight
[F]They They realise that they will
[G]miss the ones they love
When they [C]are not there [Am](nothing had
[C]me [Am]prepared for this)

[Verse 3]
The light [Dm]in my room goes on[Am] at three thirty
I [C]take [G]a bath because I feel dirty
The [Dm]power goes out and I [Am]lay
in the dark in the [C]water[G]
I'm [Dm]running my legs across [Am]the surface
I'm [C]in debt and I [G]am nervous
It [Dm]comes out of my pores and the
[Am]way that I move my eyes
[C]But [G]if I sta[F]re in one place
for more than three seconds
I [C]calm down and my [G]heartbeat lessens
It's [F]quiet outside except for
the roll of [C]the thunder[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Lordy knows you're still
turning me on
[G]Holding heavy hands with
heavy [F]hearts
The cranes on the building sites
Ex[G]tract the people [F]sus[G] pe[C]nd[Am]
[C]ing[F][C][G][F]
[G]them mid-flight
[F]They They realise that they will
[G]miss the ones they love
When they [Dm]are not [Am]there [C](nothing had me
[G]prepared [Dm]for t[Am]his)[C]
[G]On the

[Verse 5]
[Dm]eve of my [Am]26th birthday
You come [C]knocking at my door at [G]night
I tried a [Dm]hole in my head
A hole [Am]in my pocket
[C]Nothing makes me feel as [G]high
As the sil[Dm]houette of your [Am]body
In the [C]dim of the hallway [G]light
You move [F]left (nothing had me
prepared [Em]for this)
I move [F]right (nothing had
[Em]me prepared for [G]this)
[F]You move left (nothing had me
prepared [Em]for this)
I move [Dm]right [F](noth
ing had me prepared for this)
