Intro: Em7, Cadd9, G, D 

   
 Em7            Cadd9               G 
We're smashing mics in karaoke bars 
                   D 
You're running late with half your makeup on 
Em7             Cadd9                G 
This method acting might pay our bills 
               D 
But soon enough they'll be a different role to fill 

Am 
I love this feeling 
G 
But I hate this part 
D 
I wanted this to work so much 
I drew up our plans on a chart 
Em7              Cadd9 
Cars are flipping, I'm in hot pursuit 
G                    D 
My character's strong, but my head is loose 

Cadd9 
She hits like ecstasy G    D 
            Cadd9           Am 
Comes up and bangs the sense out of me 

Intrumental: Em7, Cadd9, G, D  

Em7           Cadd9 
The tarot cards say it's not so bad 
G                    D 
And the blades rotate, there's just no landing pad 
Em7                   Cadd9 
And better have said it, but darling you're the best 
G                 D 
I'm just tired of falling up the penrose steps 

Am 
I hate this feeling 
G 
But I love this part 
D 
She really wants to make it work 
And I clearly want to let it start 

Am 
We'll build a waterslide 
G               D 
As soon as I get home 

           Cadd9 
Oh and she hits like ecstasy  G    D 
            Cadd9              Am 
Comes up and bangs the sense out of me 
    Em                 D 
It's wrong, but surely worst to leave 
        Cadd9     Am 
And she hits like ecstasy 

(Palm mute G for the build up) 
So free up the cheaper seats 
Here comes the Greek Tragedy 

Outro: Em7, Cadd9, G, D
