Monster Boots Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
If [D]lust [Bm]and longing were all we knew
And [Em]love was kissing on
[A]the roof in view
Of the [D]office workers and their
[Bm]cam era phones
My [Em]heart would pump to let
[A]you know
That you could [D]take this song,
if it's [Bm]any good at all
[Em]Hide it somewhere [A]when your
new love calls
And [D]if he asks if he [Bm]hears music playing
Tell [Em]him it's the rattling of old
[A]bolts and chains
That held your heart [D]in,
but [Bm]now you're starting
To for[Em]get you ever k[A]new me
and you won't let [D]me [A]in

[Verse 2]
If [D]lust and longing were [Bm]all
we knew
And you were [D]someone special,
and [Bm]I was too
For would you take [D]this song,
put it [F#m]on your wall
[G]Hide it somewhere when your lover [A]calls
[D]If he asks if that's [F#m]music playing
[G]Tell him that the rattling of old
bolts and [A]chains[D]

[Verse 3]
How it went [D]on so quickly
but that was [Bm]long ago
When you could [D]fall in love with
every [Bm]one you know
And con[D]sume the songs like [F#m]DNA
[G]Cut me open and tell me
what they'd [A]say
[D]Pierce my skin with your [F#m]own elbow
[G]Saint Sebastian can tell you
what he knows about [D]that
And how [A]it feels[D]
[Bm]Oh[D][G]
Ooh, let [A]me in

[Verse 4]
[D]She says, break the rules now
[Bm]Talk like you've got nothing to lose
[G]Don't dance with nobody [A]else
[D]And he's drunk at the wheel again
[Bm]Rumored to be somewhere
with a [G]monster smile
It's [A]way too tight

[Verse 5]
Let me tell you what I know
[D]She's got to leave this [G]alone
[D]Ooh, find a way out of [A]here
She can still make it home
[D][Bm][D]

[Verse 6]
[Bm][G]
[D]Now we both know longing
How it gets [Bm]under your skin
But [D]then I saw you making
eyes [Bm]into him
When you can [D]take me over, [F#m]take it all
[G]Close that distance, smash that door
[D]Beat me up or [F#m]take my car
[G]One last time before you crawl

[Verse 7]
(But when your [Em]lover
calls)
(Under the bed when his [D]bullet falls)
If he asks if that's music playing
Tell them that the rattling of old
bolts and [G]chains
(In the night when you watch it
[Em]fall)
You gotta do [D]now[G][D]
Is [G]let [D]me in, let [Bm]me in,
[D]let me in[Bm]

[Verse 8]
[D]She fixes stubs onto her ballet shoes
[Bm]Walks like she's got nothing to lose
[G]Still she just can't look at no one [A]else

[Verse 9]
While [D]in the basement there is
blood on his knees
[Bm]Turning to see what she would feel
[G]When everybody has gone hom[A]e

[Verse 10]
Let me tell you what I know
[D]We could just leave this alo[G]ne, ooh
[D]And find a way out [A]of here
He could just make it,
[D]Her arrows are flying,
they don't hit the target and
[Bm]She's in a basement crying
She can[G]'t give this much of a fuck [A]again

[Verse 11]
So she'll [D]go to another with
Clergerie heels on
[Bm]Dance with him to the beat of this song
[G]Teach him that the beast
must earn his [A]horns
And me, I'm [D]just another
son of a generation kill
[Bm]These days, too much time to [G]kill

[Verse 12]
And [A]if I see her, I'll tell her you said, hi
