[G] [A] [Bb]
[A] [G] [A]
[Bb]
[A] [A] [Gm]
Smoke [A] detector, smoke [G] detector All you need to do [Gm] is protect
[A] Smoke detector, [G] smoke detector, smoke detector [C] Blinking blaster, ladder [D] of redstone
Let my [Gm] memory dissolve [C] [D] Make a decision about what's in order
[Gm] Hide that at the back of its own back [A] goodnight Give up the favorites in your phone
And [Gm] yourself [A] completely now [G] Sit in the backyard in the pharmacy slippers
[Gm] At least I'm not on the roof anymore In [G] a year or so I hope [A] nobody remembers
There's [Gm] this run over that's loads of [C] like time on the floor
[G] Needs to recharge, [A] life from the start Won't really reach anything will it?
Binary capsules of all the culture, [Bb] history, science and [D] headless sculptures
Stories of [A] monkeys and titular religions Like life on an open, lasting pitch
Smoke detector, smoke detector All you need to do is protect
Smoke detector, [Gm]
[A] [D] smoke detector, smoke detector [C] Blinking blaster, [D] ladder of redstone
Let my memory [G]
dissolve
[C] [Gm] I'll get better, I'll [C] fluff my feathers I'll punch [F] in the numbers and I'll [C] enter the letters
Why don't [D] you let me lay here and listen [C] to the distant sirens
And wonder why the hell is dog in the driver's [D] seat
With a red [C] helmet, his head out [Gm] the window It's getting [D] closer no matter where we go
Brush your [A] teeth and write your [Bb] name On the bottom of a [C] brick under the window
[Dm] [A] [Gm]
[C] [G] Sift through the [C] slush and the ash and the dust For whatever [Bb] stands out for whatever reason
[D] If it's a laugh or a rush [C] or a remembered feeling [Gm] You don't know what it means but you don't [Dm] want
to leave it Put it in a plastic [C] bag and put it in a pocket
[Bb] Hang it on a hanger, [C] put it in a closet [Dm] You know where it is whenever you need it
And to make a good [G] argument, [Dm] admit it
[C] [Bb] You don't know how [D] much I love [C] you, [A] do [Gm] you?
[D] [C] You don't know how much I love you, [Dm] do [D] you?
[Gm] Just try to remember the best of [A] us Just [G] try to remember the best of [C] us
[D] [C]
[D] [C] [Bb] [C]
Make a list of your loved ones in order of [Bb] height
Laugh at the [C] blackbirds in the black of the [D] night
Forgive all [C] the favorites in your phone [Bb] Imagine [C] yourself completely alone
Sit in the backyard in my pharmacy [Bb] slippers At least I'm [F] not on the roof [Dm] anymore
A year or so, [A] I hope nobody [Bb] remembers A splendid [G] episode of my time on the [D] floor
Need to [C] recharge, life in the stars Won't get any richer, anything really
[D] For the binary [C] capsules of all human cultures History and headless [D] sculptures
Stories of [C] monkeys and digital religions Like a note on the ankle of the last living [D] patient
You [C] don't know how much [D] I love you, [G] do you?
[C] You don't know how much I love [G] you, [C] do [Bb] you?
[C]
[D] [C] I'll [G] get better, I'll fluff [C] the cellars I'll punch [G] the numbers and end the letters
[C] My zombies say [G] they're in the silence [C] with me I wonder [A] if they have a dog in the [G] driver's
A red helmet, head out the window It's getting [Gm] closer no matter where [C] we go
Bust your teeth [D] and write your name On the bottom of a brick under the window, [C] babe
Sift through [Dm] the slush and the ash [G] and the dust Pour the rest of [Bb] the stuff you would ever need
[C] Use the laugh of a rascal Remember [G] a feeling you don't know what it [Bb] means
Don't wanna [C] leave it Put it in a plastic bag
And put it in a closet Bang it in the [Bb] hangar
Put it in the closet Don't know where it is
Whenever [D] you leave it I [F] make a good argument, [Gm] admit it
[A] [G] You [D] don't know how much [Bb] I love [C] you, [Dm] do you?
[F]
[Bb] You [C] don't know how much I love you, [Bb] [F] do you?
