Intro: Am F Dm x2 Verse: Am Tryna pin in the end F Keep getting numbers wrong Dm Wish I knew all the maths Am To figure out my songs. Havenʼt seen you in weeks F Bumming the same dive bars Dm With the prettiest pageants Am From the street view car Pre-chorus: If youʼre up and down F If youʼre down and out Dm I can be your lifeline Am You can throw me out If your love runs dry F I can Go without Dm Pluck my heart from me F And Iʼm still sleeping sound Chorus: F Dm They promised us, they would talk C But not a word of you Em F My perfect blue, oh. Dm You can take me as you are C Iʼm going down with you Em Am F Dm My perfect blue, oh. Verse: Am Waiting for the rapture F Hear a car alarm Dm Boredomʼs coming at you Am It wonʼt be too long. You know the waiting kills you F ʼFore the hemlock does Dm Strangers know whoʼs built Am To stomach hoping for. Pre-chorus: If youʼve broken down F If youʼre rolling out Dm On your frozen sweat Am Your smirking sense of doubt Feel the world you spill F Printed to teeth youʼre numb Dm Leaking smiles from a gasket F Slipped around your tongue Chorus: F Dm They promised us, they would talk C But not a word of you Em F My perfect blue, oh. Dm You can take me as you are C Iʼm going down with you Em Am F Dm My perfect blue, oh. Outro: F Am Iʼm afraid I broke a string F So now I must be leaving Am Itʼs a shame we couldnʼt finish this Em F With some whines on Sunday evenings, oh Am I hope you will remember Em F Or just stay just a Monday more. Dm F Donʼt try this at home Dm F Donʼt try this at home Dm Am Please god, donʼt try this at home
