[Am]
[C] [A] [C]
[A] I saw [F] the cafe by [Am] the cracker factory, you were practicing [G] a magic [C] trick
[Ab] [C] And [A] my thoughts [F] got rude [A] as you talked [E] and chewed [A] on the last [G] of your pick [C] and mix
[E] [Am] So do you miss picking up your food, you know [F] that I haven't been [Am] cold cold [E] before
[Am] Have you listened to your strawberry [C] lace?
[Abm] [Am] Then I put my attention [F] in the form [Am] of a garb starter
It's all you had left and it was going [C] to waste
[Ab] [B]
[A] Your past times consisted [Ab] of the [Am] strange and twisted and deranged
[A] And I loved that [Ab] little game [A] you had called crying lightning
And how you liked to aggravate the ice cream man on rainy [Am] [Ab]
afternoons
[C]
[E] But next [Ab] time [Am] that I caught my [F] own reflection it [Am] was on its way [E] to meet you
[Am] Thinking of [Gm] excuses to [C] postpone
[E] You [Am] never looked like yourself from [Fm] the side but [A] your profile could not hide the fact [Am] you knew I was [Gm] approaching [C] your throne
[A] [Am] With swollen arms you [Fm] occupied the bench [Am] like toothache
Couldn't puff your chest out like you'd never lost [C] a [A] war
[Am] And though I tried so not [F] to suffer the indignity of reaction
[A] There was no cracks to grasp or [C] get to claw
[B] [F] And your past times [Dm] consisted of the [Am] strange and twisted and deranged
And I hated that little game you [F] had called crying [Dm] lightning
And how you [Am] liked to aggravate the ice cream man on rainy [F] afternoons
[Dm] Uninvited, [Am] but not half as impossible as everyone assumes [F] you are [Dm] Crying lightning
[A] And [Am] [A] [Am]
[A] [Ab] [Am]
[Ab] [Am]
[Eb] your
[Eb] [A]
past times consisted of the [D] strange and twisted and deranged
I hate that little game [F] you had called crying [Dm] lightning
[Am]
Crying lightning
[F] [Dm] Crying lightning
[Am] Crying lightning
And [F] your past times [Dm] consisted of the strange [Am] and twisted and deranged
I hate that little game [F] you had called crying
