I can't figure the chords in the chorus, maybe "G C" maybe "G Am" ...

[Intro]

Em/B Am/C D Bm

[Verse]

Em/B Am/C D Bm

There’s a hair on the bed, clock has stopped ticking

Em/B Am/C D Em

And nothing remotely romantic has been said

Em/B Am/C D Bm

Let’s not pass on the steps, Let’s take the season very easy

Em/B Am/C D Em

Let’s take pills, salt water, let’s keep looking ahead

[Chorus]

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, but it calms me down

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, but it calms me down

[Verse]

Em/B Am/C D Bm

There is a history in pictures, There is evidence in boxes

Em/B Am/C D Em

There is proof of your love for him, long after it's dead

Em/B Am/C D Bm

And every creak, a trigger, I will think of you with others

Em/B Am/C D Em

I could not smother out that fire in my head

Em/B Am/C D Bm

And I saw your levitating chair, I found your long blondhairs

Em/B Am/C D Em

I felt your poltergeist presence, in the frame of the bed

Em/B Am/C D Bm

every creak, is a trigger, I will think of you with other

Em/B Am/C D Em

I found depravity convinced me, I may no longer care

[Chorus]

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, it’s a bad, bad ritual

G Am C Em

Oh, Oh, but it calms me down x4
