[Verse 1]
F         Fmaj7
big round eyes
       F7
like a child
                Bb
with a magic to match
       Bbm
show a shoulder
      F
naked skin on the side
       G                    C
like a crack in a door on a latch
F          Fmaj7
hot little hints
      F7                    Bb
toe a line between sexy and sick
          Bbm
what’s the deal
            F
how much to feel
         Ab
Will you think of me
Bb
differently

[Chorus 1]
G
Drawing the blinds
Bb          F
Thinking of you
G
Poor lonely mind
     Bb      F
It’s getting confused
G
Will you ever lie
       Bb
Next to me
       F
In the bed
G                     Bb   F
That I dream of us in
G
Rewire a dread
     Bb       F
this whirring machine
G
if you can’t, cool it down
Bb             F
steam is still steam
G
will you ever know
        Bb
Of this image
   F
Of you
G
That can soothe me to sleep

[Verse 2]
F           Fmaj7
what in the world
      F7                    Bb
do we have at a quarter to four
       Bbm
Such a still
       F
but so real
     G                       C
Disconnected but beautifully raw
F         Fmaj7
So ask me again
     F7                     Bb
in a suit and a tie with a drink
     Bbm
and find out right
    F
in half light
           Ab
and you’ll think of me

[Chorus 2]
G
Drawing the blinds
Bb          F
Thinking of you
G
Poor lonely mind
     Bb      F
It’s getting confused
G
Will you ever lie
       Bb
Next to me
       F
In the bed
G                     Bb   F
That I dream of us in
G
Rewire a dread
     Bb       F
this whirring machine
G
if you can’t, cool it down
Bb             F
steam is still steam
G
will you ever know
        Bb
Of this image
   F
Of you
G
That can soothe me to sleep
