    Bm         D                Bm
I think this place is full of spies
    D
I think they're onto me
Didn't anybody, didn't anybody tell you
Didn't anybody tell you
how to gracefully disappear in a room

Chorus:
Bm                     D                   Bm
I know you put in the hours to keep me in sunglasses
    D
I know
And so and now I'm sorry I missed you
I had a secret meeting in the basement of my...
    A
brain
Bm                    G               D A
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
Bm                    G               D
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
             A
And now I'm sorry I missed you
   Bm                          G              Bm  D
I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

I think this place is full of spies
I think I'm ruined
Didn't anybody, didn't anybody tell you?
Didn't anybody tell you this river's
full of lost sharks?

Chorus

And now, I'm sorry I missed you
I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
