Chords in this song · guitar

[Intro]

C F G C F G

[Verse 1]

C F G C F G C F G C

Lately I've taken to vacantly making repetitive movements mistakenly seen as improvements

C F G C F G C F G C

Nearing perfection but wisely electing to shun my reflection preferring instead shoe inspection

F G A Dm F G C

Cheese and chalk do not talk but their eyes synchronize with a secret rhythm

F G A Dm F G C

Which is a way one could say that I love you for psychological reasons

[Instrumental]

C F G C F G

[Verse 2]

C F G C F G C F G C

Mumbling failure in jail my extremities flail and I wail though my arms and my legs to the chair are nailed

C F G C F G C F G C

Under the table unwilling unable the torture's medieval the dream is a fable with feeble wings

F G A Dm F G C

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse? They won't say but they feel their feelings

F G A Dm F G C

Doesn't subtract from the fact that I love you for psychological reasons

[Chorus]

F Dm G

Reasons I can't really go into now

C F Dm G

Reasons we should probably not get into right now

[Instrumental]

C F G C F G

[Verse 3]

C F G C F G C F G C

I'm ashamed to admit I'm afraid of assuming the blame for my lame abnegation of braveness and fame

C F G C F G C F G C

Brain in a jar in a car in reverse I'm rehearsing the way I'll replay how to say how to be where you are

F G A Dm F G C

Flammable undiagrammable sentiments pass between animal beings

F G A Dm F G C

Hard to explain but it's plain that I love you for psychological reasons

F G A Dm F G C

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse? They won't say but they feel their feelings

F G A Dm F G C

Doesn't subtract from the fact that I love you for psychological reasons

[Chorus 2]

F Dm G

Reasons I can't really go into now

C F Dm G C

Reasons we should probably not get into right now
