[A]  [Asus2]    [A]  [Asus2]

[A]You're [Asus2]just [D]too --- [Dm]too obscure for [A]me [Dmaj7]
Oh and [E]you don't really get through to me [A] [Asus2]    [A] [Asus2]
And [A]there's [Asus2]no [D]need --- for [Dm]you to talk that [A]way [Dmaj7]
Is there [E]really less special little things to say?

[D] Do you [F#m]like [E]Paul Verlaine?
[D] Is it [F#m]gonna [E]rain today?
[D] Shall we [F#m]have our [E]photo taken?
[D] We'll [F#m]look like [E] ---  Death and the Maiden

[A]  [Asus2]    [A]  [Asus2]

[Am]Ask [Asus2]to [D]choose --- to [Dm]lose the way I [A]like [Dmaj7]
[E]Fool around, slit my arms out of spite [A] [Asus2]    [A] [Asus2]
But I [A]won't [Asus2]re - [D]ject --- so [Dm]long as you make [A]sense [Dmaj7]
But I'm [E]through with the ruse and vague intentions

[D] You [F#m]shouldn't [E]talk to me
[D] Find [F#m]better [E]company
[D] There's [F#m]better [E]people to know
[D] You'll [F#m]only [E]end up like Rimbaud

The [A]way [Asus2]you [D]think --- is [Dm]all so bloody [A]stale [Dmaj7]
Your [E]sanity looks pretty frail [A] [Asus2]    [A] [Asus2]
You [A]have [Asus2]to [D]clutch ---- at [Dm]every tiny [A]straw [Dmaj7]
And [E]I get so excited, oh

[D] Do you [F#m]like [E]Paul Verlaine?
[D] Is it [F#m]gonna [E]rain today?
[D] Shall we [F#m]have our [E]photo taken?
