F Am Dm Lying next to you, how could I go wrong? A# C Lying in your state of glory F Am Dm Sad to see you go, miss you little ho A# C Sad to reach the end of story Gm A# Watch baby as you go Dm If you think the world's full of people sent to hate you F Am Dm Then it will be so, cos you make the world A# C And you make the people in it Everything you see, feel, experience Happens in your sloppy soul, girl The world is just a game, something made of clay But you are the great creator So banish all your fears, grab it by the ears Love and other things of beauty reign Ask not what your country can do for you Baby, do it for your country Now you have to go, leave us all behind For a life that's less sedentary You dream of being a star, but you halfway are You just have to time your entry Your freedom and your youth flowing through your veins Desperate that it would elude you Let me wish you peace, store it, you may need it One time when your day is empty Gm Am Drink honey if it helps you out A# F With every choice there comes a nagging doubt Gm Am Depends where you want to sink your faith A# Dm The people that you fall in love with F Are never what they say I know you look at me, lobster in a pot Songbird in a gilded nightmare Nothing will hold you, not even when he begs To wrap around your legs and hips and hey Give the boy a break, you know what you want All he wants is to be near you In between your thighs, somewhat mesmerised Never underestimate your spell You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Am  C  Dm  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
