Intro: Em Am C B x4
 
Verse:
Em                             Am
Thoughts manifest in a wink
   C                          B
Insanity it beckons again
     Em                                 Am
Is this where the loud part begins?
                        C                        B
Right in the momentary bliss in the midst of a toxin
     Em                   Am
I shall be led into temptation
    C                       B
I shall not fear for youʼre with I
           Em                   Am
Weʼre buried deep in conversation
      C                   B
Ask what Iʼm think and I lie
 
Pre-chorus:
Em                D                       G
    And while she could give or take
Em                  D                   G
   I guess that Iʼm not build that way
 
Chorus:
                Em                     G
What if itʼs fatal, be all and end all
                 C                         B
What if the wait was inconsequential
                  Em                          G
Too late to surface, watching the tide turn
                  C                            B           Em Am C  B
Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful.
 
Verse:
Em                                          Am
What would the neighbourhood think
               C                              B
When the twitching of curtains insist
         Em                              Am
That empty in your heart that persists
                                 C                        B
Through a pinhole, a camera-obscura perceived on the atrium
Em                        Am
I know he speaks perfect prose cos
       C                      B
On Sinaiʼs peak, he took my hand
        Em                                  Am
We miss her curse words and condemnation
          C                 B            Em  Am           C                B
The only thing he understands,     oh, will he understand?.
 
Pre-chorus:
Em              D                        G
   And while he could give or take
Em                  D                   G
   I guess that Iʼm not build that way
 
Chorus:
                Em                     G
What if itʼs fatal, be all and end all
                 C                         B
What if the wait was inconsequential
                  Em                          G
Too late to surface, watching the tide turn
                  C                            B
Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful

Em B C G Am x2
 
Verse:
Em                         B                              C
   Please, can I just take a bit more for myself?
                   G               Am             Em
An angel or guinea, the year of my health
                              B                                      C
I wish you all could understand the things that I said
                          G               Am                 Em
Iʼd love to come help you, Iʼd hope to translate
       D                    B                                    C
Each softly spoken rhyme sown right to your tongue
                     G                          Am        Em
Wofty and berrazed, arranged on your cerebra.
                              B                             C
You come to know exactly what I meant to mean
                         G                     Am              Em
We make up, we cry, goodbye, a kiss on the cheek
                        B                         C
You make it so hard for a boy to believe
                            G                   Am          Em
Thereʼs anything beyond what I think and I see.
                        B                          C
You make it so hard for a boy to believe
                              B                                  Em    D  G  Em  D  G
This moment could hurt you, but it wonʼt hurt me                      .
 
Chorus:
                Em                         G
What if itʼs fatal, be all and end all (While she could give or take)
                                C          Am
What if the wait was inconsequential
                  Em                            G
Too late to surface, watching the tide turn (I guess that Iʼm not built that way)
                    C                       Am
Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful
                 Em                          G
What if itʼs fatal, be all and end all (While she could give or take)
                   C                    Am
What if the wait was inconsequential
                  Em                            G
Too late to surface, watching the tide turn (I guess that Iʼm not built that way)
                      C                        Am
Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful
 
Outro:
                Em                         G
What if itʼs fatal, be all and end all
                   C                    B
What if the wait was inconsequential
                  Em                          G
Too late to surface, watching the tide turn
                  C                            B          Em  Am
Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful
         C                 B
But darling itʼs not your fault
