[Intro]
G        F
G        F
[Verse 1]
Oh, how I Ffeel for the sky
FOverused by poetry and Crhymes
It's in the Gsentence that follows
Am"We stayed Gup all Fnight"
FOh, shouldn't it concern me
FThat we shrink beauty to fit in our Cminds?
Don't have to Glisten to the whole song
To Amknow what's in the Gthird Fline
[Chorus]
Tell me Gshould I feel right, tell me should I feel fine
About Ftossing the meaning for the Csake of the rhyme
But Garen't we good at turning Ambeauty into CclichGes?
[Instrumental]
G        F
[Verse 2]
Oh, how I Ffeel for the lonely girl
FQuickly made into a woman by the Cworld
They combed Gsense through her hair
AmStraightening Gout her Fcurls
FWhile you're waiting for someone to see you
FYou make fast friends with Cabuse
And you'll dGo just about anytAmhing it Gtells you Fto
[Chorus]
But I'll Gnever feel right, I'll never Gfeel fine
About Fshaping the meaning to Cfit in the rhyme
GChanging the human Aminto what Gsells and Fbuys
GBut aren't we good at turning Ambeauty Cinto clicheGs?
[Bridge]
GIt's never, ever so alphabetical
FYou go out of order and they Ccall you heretical
GAnd you just said what Amnobody Ghad time to Fhear
GPretending the truth isn't explicit
FWon't censor the people Caffected by it
GIt's like the first time you Amever heard real Amaj7sus2music in your Fears
[Chorus 3]
It'll Gnever be enough, it'll Gnever measure up
Turning the Fdepth of the ocean to the Csize of a cup
But Garen't we good at turning Ambeauty into GclicFhes?
It'll Gnever make sense, if you Gmake sense of it
All the Fthings that make you cry out of Chappiness
But Fsome things are just Ambetter Gleft unexplaFined
But Garen't we good at turning Ambeauty into CclicGhes?
[Outro]
G        F

"We stayed up all night"

Oh, shouldn't it concern me

That we shrink beauty to fit in our minds?

Don't have to listen to the whole song

Am G F

To know what's in the third line

Tell me should I feel right, tell me should I feel fine

[Instrumental]

G F

[Verse 2]

Oh, how I feel for the lonely girl

F C

Quickly made into a woman by the world

They combed sense through her hair

Am G F

Straightening out her curls

While you're waiting for someone to see you

F C

You make fast friends with abuse

G Am G F

And you'll do just about anything it tells you to

[Chorus]

G G

But I'll never feel right, I'll never feel fine

Changing the human into what sells and buys

But aren't we good at turning beauty into cliches?

[Bridge]

It's never, ever so alphabetical

F C

You go out of order and they call you heretical

Won't censor the people affected by it

It's like the first time you ever heard real music in your ears

[Chorus 3]

It'll never be enough, it'll never measure up

Turning the depth of the ocean to the size of a cup

All the things that make you cry out of happiness

But some things are just better left unexplained

But aren't we good at turning beauty into cliches?
