Am F
You are made of sugar, milk and molasses
C E7
So, little darlin', you attract all the bees
Am F
You are the gazer, you are the attraction
C E7
It takes a little vanity to know what it means
F G Am
I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times
D7 E7 Am
But you say that you're doin' just fine
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
But today, there is a cold moon rising
F C
And you wanted something better
D7 E7
But tonight, tonight you're giving up
Am F
I asked a question, give me an answer
C E7
You'll say the word, and I will disappear
Am F
You're running fast, but you can run faster
C E7
Your wheels to the dirt, gonna make it clear
F G Am
I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times
D7 E7 Am
But you say that you're doin' just fine
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
But today, there is a cold moon rising
F C
And you wanted something better
G Am
But tonight, you know you'll never find it
F C G Am
Say there's something better
G Am
But today, there is a cold moon rising
F C
You wanted something better
D7 E7
But tonight, tonight you're giving darkness
Am C
And you can't hear me
E7 D
I will try to draw you near me
F G
But in the morning, you will wake up alone
Am C
When your body breaks
E7 D
Even the hummingbirds will feel the earthquake
F G Am
You'll sing a song of your heart's complaints
C
Sing it loud
E7
Sing it clear
D
Oh, sing so I can hear you
F G Am
Then sing it soft in my ear
C
Take it up
E7 D
Or take out, put me down
F G Am
In the ground, I'll go anywhere with you
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
You don't see it, you won't find it
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
You're behind it but you won't get it
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
But today, there is a cold moon rising
F C
And you wanted something better
G Am
But tonight, you know you'll never find it
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
F C
Say there's something better
G Am
You don't see it, you won't find it
F C
Say there's something better
D7 E7
You're behind it but you won't get it
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
F C G Am
La da da, la da da
