A E If I had to break it down G#m A I'd say it's the way you love to dance Am E C#m Movin' the furniture when my back is turned B7 The flick of the lights and the world falls away Chorus: A E And your office job and your silver hair G#m A But our shapes in the dark are the reason Am I've stayed for all these years I thought I was a genius, but now I'm twenty-two And it's startin' to feel like all I know how to do is Put on a suit and take it away Chorus: With my fistful of tunes that it's painful to play Fingernail worlds like favourite seashells They fill up my nights and then they float away I've got hundreds of gowns, I've got paintings in frames And a throat that fills with panic every festival day Dutifully fallin' apart for the Princess of Norway Chorus: But you with your doll's lashes, your infinite T-shirts I should've known when your favourite record was the same as my father's You'd take me down I guess I'll always be this way Swallowed up by the words and halfway to space But there by the fire, you offered your hand And as I took it, I loved you, the boy with the plan Chorus: F# B F# B You felled me clean as a pine F# B D7 E7 F# The man with the axe and the lo- ok in his eyes F# B We've been through so many hard times F# B I'm writin' a love song for you, baby | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  Am  C#m  D7  E  E7  F#  G#m  B  B7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
