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#
