C
Babe,
there's something tragic about you
           Am
something so magic about you
             C
don't you agree

Babe
There's something lonesome about you
Something so wholesome about you
Get closer to me

Am             G               Em   F
no tired sigh, no rolling eyes, no irony
Dm              G                 F
no 'who cares', no vacant stares, no time for me

Chorus:
C               Am             G             F
Honey you're familiar like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on it's sword
Innocence died screaming, honey ask me I should know
I slithered here from eden just to sit outside your door

Babe
There's something wretched about this
Something so precious about this
Where to begin?

Babe
There's something broken about this
But I might be hoping about this
Oh, what a sin

To the strand, a picnic planned
For you and me
A rope in hand for your other man
To hang from a tree

To the strand a picnic plan for you and me
a rope in hand for your other man to hang from a tree

Chorus:
Honey, you're familiar, like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on his sword
Innocence died screaming; honey, ask me, I should know
I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door
Honey, you're familiar, like my mirror years ago
Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on his sword
Innocence died screaming; honey, ask me, I should know
I slithered here from Eden just to hide outside your door
