intro : Em ( 4x )

Em D
bite chunks out of me
Em D
you’re a shark and i’m swimming
Em D
my heart still thumps as i bleed
Em D
and all your friends come sniffing .

Em G A
triangles are my favorite shape
Em G A
three points where two lines meet .
Em G A
toe to toe , back to back , let’s go
Em G A
my love it’s very late .
Em A
’til morning comes , let’s tessellate .

Em
go alone my flower
D
and keep my whole lovely you .
Em
wild green stones alone my lover
D
and keep us on my heart .

Em D
three guns and one goes off
Em D
one’s empty , one’s not quick enough
Em D
one burn , one red , one grin
Em D
search the graves while the camera spins
Em D
chunks of you will sink down to seals
Em D
blubber rich in mourning
Em D
they’ll nosh you up , yes they’ll nosh the love away
Em D
but it’s fair to say , you will still haunt me .

Em G A
triangles are my favorite shape
Em G A
three points where two lines meet .
Em G A
toe to toe , back to back , let’s go
Em G A
my love it’s very late .
Em
’til morning comes , let’s tessellate .
