Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
That [G]means no
Where I come from
I am cold, out waiting for the day to come

[Verse 2]
I chew my [G]lips oh, and I scratch my nose
Feels so good to [D]be [C]a rose

[Verse 3]
Oh [C]don't, [G]don't you lift me up
Like I'm that shy, no no no no no
Just give it [D]up
There are [C]bats all dissolving in [G]a row
Into [C]the wishy- washy dark
that cannot let go
And I cannot [G]let go
So I thank the lord
And I thank his sword
Though it be mincing up the morning,
[Em]slightly bored

[Verse 4]
O, [G]morning without [C]warning like [G]a hole
And I watch [C]you go
There are some [G]mornings when
the sky looks like [C]a road
There are some dragons [G]who
were built to have and [C]hold
And some machines are [G]dropped
from great heights lov[Em]ingly
And some great [G]bellies ache with
[C]many bumblebees
[G]And they [D]sting [C]so terribly

[Verse 5]
I do as [C]I p[G]lease
Now I'm on my knees
Your skin is something that
I stir in[D]to [Em]my tea
And I am [C]watching you
And you [Em]are starry, starry, starry
And I'm tumbling [G]down,
and I check a [C]frown
It's why I love this town
Well, just look [G]around
To see me [Em]serenaded hourly,
celebrated sourly
[C]Dedicated dourly,
waltz[D]ing with the open [G]sea
Clam, crab, [C]cockle, cowrie
Will you just look [D]at [Em]me?
