[Verse]
You look different every F#mtime
You Fcome from the Amfoam-crested Embrine
It's your F#mskin shining sFoftly in the AmmoonEmlight
Partly F#mfish, partly Fporpoise, partly Ambaby sperm Emwhale
Am I F#myours? Are you Fmine to Amplay Emwith?
F#mJoking apFart
When you're dAmrunk you're terEmrific
When you're F#mdrunk I like you Fmostly
Late at Amnight, you're quite aEmlright
But I Ebmaj7can't undersCm7tand the different yBbmaj7ou
In the Ebmaj7morning when it's Cmtime Cm7to Cm6play
At being human for a Dwhile
Please E7b5smile
[Verse]
You'll be different in the F#mspring, I Fknow
You're a Amseasonal Embeast
Like the F#mstarfish that dFrift in with the Amtide, with the Emtide
So F#muntil your Fblood runs to Ammeet the next full Emmoon
Your F#mmadness fits in Fnicely with my Amown, with my Emown
Your F#mlunacy fits Fneatly with my Amown
FmMy very oAmwn
 Fm   Am(x5)
FWe're not aDlone

You look different every time

F Am Em

You come from the foam-crested brine

F#m F Am Em

It's your skin shining softly in the moonlight

F#m F Am Em

Partly fish, partly porpoise, partly baby sperm whale

F#m F Am Em

Am I yours? Are you mine to play with?

F#m F

Joking apart

Am Em

When you're drunk you're terrific

F#m F

When you're drunk I like you mostly

Am Em

Late at night, you're quite alright

Ebmaj7 Cm7 Bbmaj7

But I can't understand the different you

Ebmaj7 Cm Cm7 Cm6

In the morning when it's time to play

At being human for a while

Please smile

[Verse]

F#m F

You'll be different in the spring, I know

Am Em

You're a seasonal beast

F#m F Am Em

Like the starfish that drift in with the tide, with the tide

F#m F Am Em

So until your blood runs to meet the next full moon

F#m F Am Em

Your madness fits in nicely with my own, with my own

F#m F Am

Your lunacy fits neatly with my own

Fm Am

My very own
