[Verse 1]

Am                       E
   Tried to hang on to myself
                        Bb
Don't believe in no-one else
                       Am
And I'm shakin' like a leaf
                   Ab
as I fall into the street
                        Gm
But the girl with X-Ray eyes,
                           F
she's gonna see through my disguise


[Verse 2]

Am                      E
   Going nowhere down a hill,
                               Bb
It's hard to swallow, like the pill
                         Am
that was twisted on your tongue
                            Ab
by the seed of the standing still
                       Gm
There was no-one to be seen,
                      F
no-one left to hear my scream...


[Chorus]

E         E/G#           Am
   So she took me by the hand
            Am/G              F
We followed clues left in the sand
                           C
as she swallowed space and time
                        E
We gathered, pulled, and swam
    E/G#           Am
She shot me to the sun,
       Am/G            F
like a bullet from the gun...
                  C
When the deed was done,
                       E
in the morning she was gone

[Verse 3]

Am                          E
   Turn the page and let it go
                          Bb
like your mother told you so
                          Am
Life, it stretches on for miles
                             Ab
The truth is on your stereo
                    Gm
The girl with X-ray eyes
                                F
she's gonna see through your disguise


[Chorus]

E         E/G#           Am
   So she took me by the hand
            Am/G              F
We followed clues left in the sand
                           C
as she swallowed space and time
                        E
We gathered, pulled, and swam
    E/G#           Am
She shot me to the sun,
       Am/G            F
like a bullet from the gun...
                  C
When the deed was done,
                       E         E/G#
in the morning she was gone
