Paper Clips Chords

(ver. 1)
Holly Henry
[Intro]
C  Am  G  C  x2

[Verse 1]
          C      F                  G
Wear your teeth, pretend you're eighteen
C                                   F             G
Maybe when you're tall you won't be scared of anything
     F            G
Like hell waiting down below
Em           Am
Odd that you thought you'd go
       F             G
Better touch all the table tops
    Em               Am
And count all of the garden rocks

[Instrumental]
C  F  G  C  x3

[Verse 2]
                C      F                  G
Out through the mouth, pretend you're eighteen
C                                 F               G
Maybe when you're grown this will all have been a dream
    F                    G
The bathroom mirror, the stucco walls
     Em           Am
The devil waiting in the hall
    F               G
The pretty wind and quiet snow
Em             Am
Paperclips all in a row

[Chorus]
    C        G           F
But life has tripped you up by your laces
     C             G         F
They thought maybe you would stop with these phases
    C       G      F
You came to a full stop in the races
      C       G                Am
Cause life it just tripped you up by your laces (by your laces)

[Instrumental]
C  F  G  x2

[Verse 3]
C             F               G
Talk weather, like you're eighteen
C                         F                G
Bandaging your background like your bleach clean
    F                 G
The waiting room, the hollow gaze
    Em            Am
The acceptance of fleeting faith
    F                  G
The kids wearing their summer glow
     Em             Am
Your paperclips all in a row

[Chorus]
      C        G           F
Cause life has tripped you up by your laces
     C             G         F
They thought maybe you would stop with these phases
    C       G      F
You came to a full stop in the races
      C       G                Am
Cause life it just tripped you up by your laces

[Chorus]
       C        G           F
Yeah, life has tripped you up by your laces
     C             G         F
They thought maybe you would stop with these phases
    C       G      F
You came to a full stop in the races
      C       G                F                 F
Cause life it just tripped you up by your laces, by your laces

[Outro]
C  F  G  x2
Em  Am  F  G
Em  Am
