Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Electri[C]fied and lit up by an outline
of herself
Smiling now as only
she can be.
She said I made some new
connections to astound them all
In ways we've never dreamed
about
Her lovely hand is glowing from the
light inside itself
From soaking in the esters stacked
for miles on a single shelf
Holding my eyes still so she can see
If all the superundercover custom
hybrids got to me
It's too much
You're too late
[F]I want to see it all again
She says eep this
benzene ring around your finger
And think of me when everything [Dm]you
wanted starts to end
And I saw living clusters form in
[F]pools beneath her feet
Invertebrates that only she can see
And I [Dm]said what on earth are all
these ampuls for
She says exactly,
we're not gunna wait around here anymore
Systems back down slow,
watch [G]the dust cloud resend
And I will keep you.
I will keep [Em]you till the end
Set your head down low, watch my
ears ring
It's eerie and it's awesome,
How connected two pods scattered on [G]the
[Em]surf[G]ace [Dm]can
[G]become,
Lazy into one.

[Verse 2]
He knows [G]lightning kills the other,
She can't stand to watch his petals fall,
It's better when cascades

[Interlude 1]
become like us all.
[C]

[Verse 3]
Afternoon a [C]golden disengagement
leaves a woman,
With a [F]household left [Dm]to fill.
[Em]
Sit, and be still,
[Dm]send[G] the voltage cross his ticker,
Watch the stars they start to flicker,
and one by one levels

[Interlude 2]
Fall.
[C]

[Verse 4]
Another [C]drink my love,
and make it tall enough
So I can [F]stand on it and [Dm]see,
[F]
[Dm]all [G]you'[Em]ve done for me.[Dm]
[G]A world of curves and lines electri[Dm]c,
Re[G]member how you [Dm]strung [G]the colored lights,
from Christmas tree
To [Em]me?
