Chords for Easy Life - Houseplants (Lyrics)

[Eb] You pour the wine, I'll pour a cup of tea, [Ab]
strain our eyes to adjust to this jarring colour [Cm] scheme
and mood [Eb] lights and house plans, grand [Ab] designs and channel surfing, drifting with these [Fm] solar winds
We [Eb] stay searching, _ I'm really enjoying this regardless [Ab] of what happens from here
_ Turn it up, [C] don't turn it [Eb] down, moving through the gears, cos I've been lost for [Ab] years
I really appreciate you coming down on train lines and night [Eb] buses, pillows full of goose feathers
Read it in the [Ab]
newsletters, I'm a real go-getter, tripping [Dm] with these [Cm] sunsetters
[Eb] multicoloured parachute hat with a solar [Ab] powered fan, it's [Fm] cool she's with the band
[Eb] I just wanna stay you out for the summer, I would never swap you out for another
I'm kinda scared of your eldest brother, [Cm] we've been dressing up [Eb] cos we look like stoners
Girl, _ why does it feel like it's real for the first time? _ _ _ _
Girl, why does it feel like it's real [Cm] for the first time?
_ _ _ [Eb] I know your face from somewhere, how do I know you?
I thought you [F] were the lifeguard at the local pool
but wherever I know you from, you put me in [Bb] a good mood and so [N] I changed the channel from the local
news and weather, speak for 98 with the surround [Cm] sound, I hope my housemates don't freak you [G] out
or better [Eb] still, they're not around, _ way up here on my trapeze, please don't shoot me [Abm] down
I love the [Gm] way we hate these _ _ [Eb] clowns
_ _ _ For a minute [Ab] there, you had me shook, _ _ [Eb] waiting _
_ _ _ Holding _ [Ab] on a _ _ headline, _ I just [N] wanna stay you out for the summer, [Eb] I would never swap you out for another
I'm kinda scared of your eldest brother, [Cm] we've been dressing up [Eb] cos we look like stoners
Girl, why does it feel like it's real for the first time?
_ _ _ Girl, why _ does it feel like it's real for the first time? _ _ _
Why _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
does _ [Ab] it feel like [Eb] it's real for [Ab] the first time?
And life's on hold _ again
_ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ Your _ _ _ elbow's on the [Eb] table but I'll let it [Ab] slide for now, you almost got carried away and said yes
[Cm]
I'd have loved that, [Eb] let's grab a drawer off a friend, let's smoke it [D] out the window, [Cm] never mind
the neighbour's cat, he always [Eb] stares at me like that, Moroccan bee sting, [D] Colin the [Ab] caterpillar
left over from my birthday, what the [Eb] fuck, I'm actually in love, lucid as my dreams and still
struggling with decisions, coffee stains and [Fm] urban wisdom, I [Eb] just wanna stay you out for the summer
I would never [Abm] swap you out for another, _ I'm kinda scared of your eldest brother, we've been dressing
up cos we look like stoners, [Eb] girl, why does it feel like it's real for the first time?
_ _ Girl, _ why does it feel like it's [Cm] real for the first time? _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ You pour the wine, I'll pour a cup of [Ab] tea, strain our eyes to adjust to this jarring colour [Cm] scheme
Mood lights [Eb] and houseplants, grand designs [Ab] and channel surfing, drifting with these solar [Fm] winds
We're still
