This song sounds awesome with the string quartet but you can play it on guitar too.

(pause)
Em C D
The reception's gotten fuzzy
Em C D
The delicate balance has shifted
C Em
Put on your gloves and your black pumps
C B
Let's pretend the fog has lifted
Em C D
Now you see me
Em C D
Now you don't
C Em
Now you say you love me
C B
Pretty soon you won't
Em C
If we get our full three score and ten
A B
We won't pass this way again
Em D
So kiss me with your mouth open
C B
Turn the tires toward the street
Em
And stay sweet

Em-Em-C-D (3x)

(pause)
Em C D
All the chickens come on home to roost
Em C D
Plump bodies blotting out the sky
C Em
You know it breaks my heart in half, in half
C B
When I see them trying to fly
Em C D
'Cause you just can't do
Em C D
Things your body wasn't meant to
C Em
Hike up your fishnets
C B
I know you
Em C
If we live to see the other side of this
A B
I will remember your kiss
Em D
So do it with your mouth open
C B
And take your foot off of the brake
Em
For Christ's sake
Em-Em-C-D (3x)
Em
