G#m             E
It's a backwards attraction

To your forward eyes
But you're so far-sighted that
you can't place trust
In what or who you recognize

We sped the Plymouth 'cross
the banks of the Mississippi River
Mary Timony was smaller than a superball
Chitter-chatter all these secrets
started giving me the shivers
Plain and simply broken down near Olympia

Chorus:
G#m            D#m             A
I think your bruise was understated
                Gm
Cause you can't feel this anymore
It's getting bluer and you can't keep faking
That you can't feel this anymore - x3
