Verse 1:

Bm G D A Bm So I opened the front door, you walked in all handsome A G And ready for something you…saw…in my eyes Bm G Right…here, we sat and we tripped…out D A Bm A Em Saw celestial mosaics, and I fell and I crawled over and held your hand

Pre-Chorus

G A Bm And nobody worried about the roof being blown off G A D F# So I went farther than I'd ever gone before
Bm D Change, you are my nemesis A G Transition, I hold my breath Em A Bm This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet D A G I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread F#m Bm This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window

Verse 2:

Bm G D A Bm And so I climbed the stairs and bled, and here was a starseed A Bm Right here he came to us in the bed in our bedroom G And you trusted me enough to follow me anywhere D A Bm A Em Or the other way around, the other way around as well

Pre-Chorus

G A Bm And I blocked my nose and dove in the deep end G A D F# And swam like my life depended on it, and it did
Bm D Change, you are my nemesis A G Transition, I hold my breath Em A Bm This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet D A G I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread Em F#m Bm This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window Em D Oh, no F# G Em A#m F# Oh, no

Verse 3:

Bm G D A Bm Right here, in this very backyard, we promised forever A G Bm And we put our helmets on and threw the confetti G And then there's the phone call D A Bm A Em Telling me to breathe in through my nose and out my mouth

Bridge:

G A Bm And out came our girl, faster than we thought G A D F#m And now I am beyond recognition Bm D I guess that's a good thing, and still, I want to go deeper
Bm D Change, you are my nemesis A G Transition, I hold my breath Em A Bm This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet D A G I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread F#m G E D F# Bm This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window
Final: Bm C#m Bm C#m Bm
