Bm

VERSE:
Bm
Decided 
To sneak up away from your stomach 
And try your pulse 
    Bm
And captured 
What seemed all unknowing and candid 
             D             F#
But they suspected it was false 

Bm

Bm
She's playful 
The boring would warn you be careful 
Of her brigade 
In order to tame this relentless marauder 
      D              F#
Move away from the parade 

BRIDGE 1:
            A              G             Bm
And she was walking on the tables in the glass house 
   A           G              Bm
Endearingly bedraggled in the wind 
A             G            Bm
Subtle in her method of seduction 
     D                        F#
The twenty little tragedies begin 

Bm

              A               G          Bm
And she would throw a feather boa in the road 
        A                    G       Bm
If she thought that it would set the scene 
  A          G                  G
Unfittingly dipped into your companions 
  D                        F#
Enlighten them to make you see 

CHORUS: 
            Bm           A        D
And there's affection to rent 
     G          F#
The age of the understatement 
           Bm             A      D
Before the attraction ferments 
F#
Kiss me properly and pull me apart 

  Bm          A        D
Affection to rent 
     G          F#
The age of the understatement 
           Bm             A      D
Before the attraction ferments 
F#
Kiss me properly and pull me apart 


BRIDGE 2:
G - F# - F# - Bm
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh      x2

        G                    F#
And my fingers scratch at my hair 
   F#                       Bm
Before my mind can get too reckless 
      G             F#
The idea of seeing you here 
     F#                          Bm
Is enough to make the sweat grow cold 

G - F# - F# - Bm
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh      x2

OUTRO:
Bm              for a few bars and then...

Bm - A - D - G - F#

End on F#
