These are Fingertips chords by Lana Del Rey on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
     F           Em
When I look back, tracing
                  F
fingertips over plastic bags
Em                  C
Thinking, "I wish I could
     Bm                  Em
extrapolate some small intention
   Bm                   Em
Or maybe just get your attention
      C         D
 for a minute or two"

[Verse 2]
F
Will I die? Or will I
             Em
get to that ten-year mark?
        F
Where I beat the extinction
   Em
of telomeres?
    Dm
And if I do, will you be there
                  E7
with me, Father, Sister,
 Brother?

[Verse 3]
F
Charlie, stop smoking
                      G
Caroline, will you be with me?
Will the baby be alright?
       F           G
Will I have one of mine?
      F
Can I handle it even if I do?
               G
It's said that my mind
Is not fit, or so they said,
    F
 to carry a child
C                Am
 I guess I'll be fine

[Verse 4]
             F
It wasn't my idea, the cocktail
 of things that twists
           Dm
 neurons inside
                      G
But without them, I'd die
                            E7
They say there's irony in the music,
                 F
 it's a tragedy, I
    Dm            G
See nothing Greek in it
Give me a mausoleum in Rhode
 Island with Dad, Grandma,
               E7
 Grandpa, and Dave
                      F
Who hung himself real high
             Dm G
In the National Park sky,
it's a shame and I'm
               G#dim
crying right now
   Am
To get to you, save you,
              E7
 if I take my life
Find your astral body,
         G       D#dim
put it into my eyes
                        F
Give you two seconds to cry
               G
Take you home, I, I'll
 give you a blanket
Your spirit can sit and
       G#dim    Am
 watch TV by my side
              D G
'Cause, baby, I
Ran through a time when
                E7
I felt you were doing it

[Verse 5]
F
I couldn't handle it,
 I was in Monaco
F
I couldn't hear what
they said on the telephone
G
I had to sing for the
prince in two hours
G
Sat in the shower
                E7         Dm
Gave myself two seconds to cry
        Dm           G
It's a shame that we die


[Verse 6]
When I was fifteen, naked,
                            C
 next-door neighbors did a drive-by
Pulled me up by my waist,
      F           C
long hair to the beach side
         F
I wanted to go out like you,
 swim with the fishes
     C
That he caught on
 Rhode Island beaches
But, sometimes, it's
 Em   F
 just not your time

[Verse 7]
    G
Caroline, what kind
of was she to
                              E
say I'd end up in institutions?
    F
All I wanted to do was kiss
        G             C
 Aaron Greene and sit by
    Am             F
The lake, twisting lime into
                  G
 the drinks that they made
Have a babe at sixteen,
                E7
the town I was born in,
      F
 and died

[Verse 8]
      Am        G
Aaron ended up dead and not me

What the fuck's wrong
                 C
in your head to send me away,
 never to come back?
        G
Exotic places and people don't
                 E7
 take the place of being
      F
your child
  Fm                         C
I give myself two seconds to cry

[Verse 9]
        Am        G
Let it crash over me
Like the waves in the sea
               E7 F
Call me Aphrodite
        G
As they bow down to me

[Verse 10]
Dm         E
Sunbather, moon chaser,
 F            G
 queen of empathy
                  E7
I give myself two seconds
      F
 to breathe
And go back to being
          G
 a serene queen
I just needed two seconds
    E7 F
 to be me
