[C]
[A] [G] [D] My brown eyes, [A]
[C] two [Em] pools of mud,
resting in two [A] dark moons.
They [G] turned the tide [Em] into a flood.
[D] And the bloodshot lines in the white
map [Em] every A road in this town.
All the glare of the [A] city [Em] lights,
[A]
[D] every [G] car they sank we talked down.
Over time they build up the city and
[D] our arguments show it all.
[G] Every road, every motorway,
displayed increase and wrinkle.
You fill my face in a map you have
folded up [D] 100, 1000 times.
You [Em] know it starts pretty rough,
and [Am] ends up [G] even worse than [Em] what
goes on in [G] between.
I try to [D] keep it [G] out of my thoughts.
[A] Your blue [D] eyes [Em] are like the deepest
in the warmest seas.
As the sun [Am] elevates my body,
they float my [G] heart up past my feet.
And [Am] with the [G] water and the separate sun,
[Em] would your psoriasis glitch and be gone?
Or would it fix the [A] pallor of my [Em] skin?
[A] Or [G] would my freckles all melt into one?
Your body above me is sobbing [D] down
my cheap sweat from your tears.
[G] Faced in which each of the burning
sweat veins fall down to my ears.
Now they rest in two tiny [D] reservoirs
above the February canal.
You [Em] know it starts pretty [G] rough,
and [Am] ends up [G] even worse than [Em] what goes on [G] in between.
I try to keep it out of my thoughts.
[A]

[C] [Em]
[A] [D]
[C] [Em] [A]
[C] [Em] [G]
My life is a long time, too long [D] to my mind,
too long by far.
[C] Between my [G] waterfalls and your landslides,
I've seen every scar.
Life is a long time, [C] too long to [D] my mind,
[G] too [D] long by far.
[E] Because it starts [C#] pretty rough,
and [Am] ends up [G] even worse than [Em] what goes on in [C#] between.
I [Am] try to keep it [G] out of my thoughts.
You [Em] know it starts [G] pretty rough,
and [C] ends up [G] even worse than [Em] what goes on in [G] between.
I [Am] try to keep it [G] out of my thoughts.
You [Em] know it starts [G] pretty rough,
and [D] ends up [G] even worse than what [Em] goes on [G] in between.
I [Am] try to keep it out of [G] my thoughts.
You [Em] know it starts pretty [G] rough,
and [Am] ends up [G] even worse than what [Em] goes on [C#] in between.
[Dm] I try to keep [G] it out of my thoughts.
[Em]
