A
With the restraint
       D
Of New Order covers
C#m
Young Marble Giants
A              D         C#m
I sat... quietly, waiting...
     A                              D  C#m
For someone else to make the first move
 A                              D  C#m
Someone else to make the first move

Chorus:
                 Em F#m
That someone is you
                 F
That someone is you
                  Bm          E
That someone has pulled me up and
        D        A
out of cartoon quicksand
 D        A              D A G
Pulled me up and out of me.

And with the fury lock of Sharon Stone Casino
Scarface, Al Pacino, '74 Torino. I need
Someone else to make the first move
Someone else to make the first move

Chorus
