G
I know you’re going soon
D
It’s ok, I won’t freak
G D
Can see it in your eyes, you’ve been moving out for weeks
Am D
You’ve found a girl, she’s so much prettier than me
Am
She’s much cleverer than me
D
She’s so much happier than me
G D
You want a lover who takes time over her looks
G D
Not some stupid kid who’s always wrapped up in her books
Am D
But can I help it if a sentence makes me cry?
Am
And the pavement makes me cry
D
And the thought of you and I
G
Oh, just leave
D
There’s nothing much I want to say
G
But close the door
D Am
You know how the atmosphere decays my bones
D
I feel the atoms on my skin
Am D
Oh, I feel the matter closing in
G D
From my perch I see the universe as one
G D
See the planets in their glory, slowly dancing with the sun
Am D
See my ancestors in monkey costumes fucking on the rocks
Am D
See the priestess and her brother and the farmer and his crops
G D
All these sacred histories have led to this one day
G D
When you face me on the stairs and say you have to go away
Am D
And time stops like ice where all around it once was hot
Am D
So don’t begrudge a girl her books cos they’re all a girl has got
G
They sit there now
D
The words unflinching in their strength
G
You see I only ever read
D
Cos I wish I was brave as them
Am D
And I know these words will never leave me standing on the stairs
Am D
Just like my frozen ancestors they always will be there
Am D
In print, just like your image on my heart
Am D
For ever like the planets light the dark
Am D
Just like our world is waltzing with the sun
Am D
Just like when this world explodes it makes another one
G
Oh you, just leave
D
I always wanted you to be free
G D
But next time you see the planets try and think of me
Am D
And this moment on a stairway where I thought that I could see
Am D
All the atoms in your lover, she’s much prettier than me
Am D
And can I help it if an atom makes me cry?
Am D
I can’t help it if she’s happier than I
I know you’re going soon
D
It’s ok, I won’t freak
G D
Can see it in your eyes, you’ve been moving out for weeks
