[Verse 1]
 
A
You clean the bathroom
          E
On your hands and on your knees
F#m
Wearing latex gloves
          D
That you borrow from her
A                                  E
I don’t know what you think you’re doing
                         F#m
But you’re doing it for free
                               D
Do you know even what you’re doing anymore?
A                   E
I know it’s not my business
                       F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                            D
But the expression on your face
                         A
Looks so awkward and contrived
                         E
But I know it’s not my business
                         F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                          D
And I don’t know what to call it
 
But I wouldn’t call it
 
[Chorus 1]
 
 A                 E                   F#m
Oh, I’m a rising star, I’m a sinking ship
                  D
You’re a work of art, something delicate
A
You’re my mother’s son
E
You’re my favorite song
F#m                 D
I’m the things you hide
 
When you turn the lights back on
A                       E
I’m a one, or two, or three page explanation
          F#m
You’re a getaway vacation
         D
That I hoped would bring salvation
 
It did not
A
And it’s killing me
     E
You were the only person
            F#m
Who could understand
                    D
The things I think inside my head
                    N.C.
And somehow you forgot
 
[Interlude]
A E F#m D
 
[Verse 2]
A
I dated Audrey Hepburns
 E
Just to be Paul Varjack
       F#m
And I picked up all the paychecks
      D
But I never called them back
A                  E
I guess I wasn’t fooling anybody
       F#m
But I never knew myself
           D
As well as I knew how to act
A                       E
And I know it’s not my business
                        F#m
And I know it’s not my right
                      D
But you crawl into my bed
 
In the middle of the night
A                      E
And you ask me not to leave you
                        F#m
But you don’t ask me to stay
                    D
And I never can say no
                           A
When you look at me like that
 
[Chorus 2]
 
             E                   F#m
I’m a rising star, I’m a sinking ship
                  D
You’re a work of art, something delicate
A
You’re my mother’s son
E
No, you’re my favorite song
F#m                 D
I’m the things you hide
 
When you turn the lights back on
A                       E
I’m a one, or two, or three page explanation
          F#m
That you wouldn’t take the time
            D
To give to anyone at all
       A              E
I’m a one, or two or three page explanation
           F#m
That you wouldn’t take the time
            D
To give to anyone
 
Anyone at all
 
[Interlude]
A E F#m D x2
 
[Bridge]
A            E
Are you overseas now?
           F#m
With the drugs
             D
And all the men
            A
Or are you dead
                   E
Or hiding in your loft
              F#m            D
Behind your papers and your pens
            A
Just how we met
              E                  F#m
I never did believe a word they said
             D
The bluest blues
             A
The reddest reds
              E                   F#m
I never did believe a word they said
             D
They made it up
          A
Even the end
