Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]So [G]her[Em] fin[B]gers ran[C]
away with them[G]selves
'Till [Em]everything was [B]documented
Our [C]mind it was reaching [G]out
[F#]To put i[Em]nto words what
their bod[B]ies had done

[Verse 2]
[C]They lie together, [G]oh
Oil on [Em]wa te[C]r[B]
And [C]they lie upon [G]her, oh
Someone's [Em]daugh[C] ter
[B]

[Verse 3]
It's a [C]catalogue of modern mis[G]takes
Her [Em]words and legs wrapped
[B]around each man
Leaving [C]stories like digital [G]crumbs
As she [Em]turns these
nights into literat[B]ure

[Verse 4]
[C]They lie together, [G]oh
Oil on [Em]wa te[C]r[B]
And [C]they lie upon her, [G]oh
Someone's [Em]daugh[C] ter

[Interlude 1]
[B][Bm]
[C][G][Em][B][C][G][Em][B]

[Verse 5]
When they [C]leave she sets
about writing [G]down
Awkward [Em]body games all [B]over town
Warm af[C]fection runs
through every [G]word
We're [Em]screens away but we're
laugh[G]ing [Em]with [G]her

[Verse 6]
[C]They lie [G]together, oh
Oil on [Em]wa te[C]r[B]
Oh [C]they lie upon her, [G]oh
Someone's daugh[Em]ter

[Verse 7]
They lie upon [C]her, oh
Oil on wa[B]ter

[Outro 1]
[B][C][G][Em][C][B]
