E C#
You can't sell me incense
G# A
My world smells good enough to eat
C# G# A
So let's not eat, just smell the good and longing
F#
Not owning
E(var.) C#diss.
We'll circle like insects
G# A
Incensing the grieve liquored herd
C# G# A
Have you heard an encouraging word from them
F# (slide from doing F# on the 5th fret, to 3rd, then to 2nd)
They pretend
D7 C#m
To be so above it all
D7 A
Or so they would have you think
C# F# B7 ->>
I think, no one thinks at all
E C#
You might show some interest
G# A
You're world looks good enough to eat
C# G# A
I see the ghost of a better world Living in the disbelief
F#
In ghosts
E(var.) C#diss.
Everyone tells me they're crazy
G# A
Well crazy people aren't so fucking boring
C# G# A
Wake me when your through being cool, cause I'm snoring
F# (slide from F# on the 5th fret, to 3rd, then to 2nd)
And hoping
D7 C#m
To see you beside yourself
D7 A
Show me the rose stuff of you
F# G#
Would you
G# B7 ->>
Do it for yourself

Your fear or normalcy is hardly strange
C# A B
Let's be freaks, plain clothes police

Let's be deliberate, because it's obvious to me
C Eb D
Deliberately, Weird is pretty obvious….
E C#
So color me obvious
G# A
I just want to be happy half the time
C# G# A F# (Slide from 5th fret to 2nd fret)
And blue only when I have the time
You can't sell me incense
