[Verse]
G Cadd9
The legends of beauty hits to me with your back against the wall,
G Cadd9 D
How can you look this good naked and understand the pain at all
G Cadd9
Panic-stricken while I look for a better place to hide,
G Cadd9 D
and how have I still not commandeered the balls
G Cadd9
To lay waits the second best in this exhibit of our excess
G Cadd9 D
And I can see my past success judging open unimpressed
G Cadd9
And I can feel my every footstep in my chest
G Gsus2 Dadd4/F#
Until my own weak heart beat as you slept
Em7 Cadd9 G
And a little bit of poison it always does the trick
Em7 Cadd9 G
There’s an antidote to the edge and living life like this
[Chorus]
G Cadd9
And is this passion, something I'll look back on and regret
Em7
Well, you tell me I’m better off dead
Cadd9 D
I’ll take being all heart, no head
G Cadd9
And is this passion, something I'll look back on and regret
Em7
Well, you tell me I’m better off dead
Cadd9 D
I’ll take being all heart and no head
[Verse]
G Cadd9
With a heart so physical it was beautiful, through trembling lips I spoke
G Cadd9
Of how I wasn’t happy either with a life of hope and smoke
D G Cadd9
And I turned to you and half-whispered, half-croaked some shitty little joke
G Cadd9
Watched as the frown fold lines on your pretty face broken
D G Cadd9
In our little nest above the street and apalled of the rain
G Cadd9
I tried to verbalize fading light and explain away the pain
G Cadd9
Of how sometimes I wish I could stay sick and have unending excuse to be away
Em7 Cadd9 G Dadd4/F#
From what I’m taught and what I’m told, and what I found out when it was too late,
Em7 Cadd9 G Dadd4/F#
From what I’m taught and what I’m told, and what I found out when it was too late
[Bridge]
G Cadd9*
And is this passion, or is this just fashionable
Em7*
Maybe I’m too impressionable
Cadd9*
Maybe I’ve learned sweet fuck-all
G
But I’ll take this life
Cadd9
Over jeans without holes and never saying goodbyes
Em7
And I’ll feel the cold and I’ll go broke before I die
[Verse]
Em7 Cadd9 D
But there’s a child in me who still believes that he can fly
G Cadd9
And I grew up in a good house, maybe too good as it seems now
G Cadd9
Never knew how hard I’d have to try to make magic and make money,
D G
and there’s nothing tragic romantic or funny about
Cadd9
stealing food and running from every decision I’ve ever made,
G Cadd9
watch my undying youth be extinguished by my own flame
Em7 Cadd9 G Dadd4/F#
What I’m taught and what I’m told, and what I found out when it was too late,
Em7 Cadd9 G Dadd4/F#
what I’m taught and what I’m told…
[Chorus]
G Cadd9
And is this passion, something I'll look back on and regret
Em7
Well, you tell me I’m better off dead
Cadd9 D
I’ll take being all heart, no head
G Cadd9
And is this passion, no I will not look back or regret
Em7
Well, you tell me I’m better off dead
Cadd9 D
And I’ll take being all heart and no head
