Crooked Teeth Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]Can[C]dle[F] wax on the carpet,
can't get you out
Of the part of my brain
that I can't pronounce
[C]You keep my head in the clouds
like you're heaven- sent
As an atheist- cynic, I take offense
[F]I put a stake in the ground,
fired up a flare
Undid all of your knots like a Baudelaire
[C]Showed you parts of me I
thought were gone
You took apart the thing

[Verse 2]
between my lungs
[F]And I adore you,
wanna [C]be your best friend
Wanna [Am]rip up the horoscopes,
[G]take the stars and rearrange [F]them
Dig your past up [C]and dig
my nails into your skin
[Am]Let my body capsize 'cause
I [G]love the way you pull me in
[F]Oh, I see win[C]ter, I see summer
See [Am]your hand in my hand,
see [G]me as a mother
Love's [F]cruel like a prom queen
to the kid [C]with the crooked teeth
But [Am]if you [F]keep [Am]me smilin',
I [G]swear that I'll [Am]never [G]leave
[F][C][Am]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Ooh, ooh
Oh, [F]I know I've got many [C]coats
And [Am]I'll go wherever
the wind [G]blows
But, darling, [F]I'm a perennial
[C]I'll com[Am]e back every time that I go[G]
Tell me, what have [F]I done
[C](oh- oh)
To give myself [Am]up like this
[G]for someone?
Won't you hold me [F]like [C]the sun?
Light up [Am]my eyes in the dark,
watch as [G]I slowly turn

[Verse 4]
[F]'Cause I adore you,
wanna [C]be your best friend
Wanna [Am]rip up the horoscopes,
[G]take the stars and rearrange them
[F]Dig your past up and[C] dig
my nails into your skin
[Am]Let my body capsize 'cause
I [G]love the way you pull me in
[F]Oh, if I eve[C]r lose my sanity
[Am]You'll be the voice that'll [G]bring
me right back to me
Love's [F]cruel like a prom queen to
[C]the kid with the crooked teeth
But [Am]if you keep me smilin',
I [G]swear that I'll never leave
[Am][F][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 5]
[G]
I'd [F]burn at the stake, oh,
I'd change my [Am]old ways for you, [G]dear
Wanna [F]live in a house that you build with [Am]your hands,
so if you disappeared
[G]Darling, you[F]'d still be holdin' me,
you'd [C]still be around
[Am]Strong like the walls standin'
[G]tall in the ground
And I'd [F]look out the window,
[C]down by the lake
We're [Am]Noah and Allie [G]out in the rain
You're the [F]look in the hallway,
[C]losin' my cool
The [Am]face in my locker,
[G]the tears in the bathroom
Love's [F]cruel like a prom [C]queen to the kid
[F]with the crooked [Am]teeth[F][C]
[G]Love's

[Verse 6]
[F]cruel like a prom [C]queen to
the kid [Am]with the [F]crooked [Am]teeth

[Outro 1]
[G]
