Intro: Bm7 Bm7 G7 G7 G7 G7 G7
Verse 1:
When they b[Bm7]eat on a b[G7]roken guitar
And on the [Bm7]streets they reek of [G7]tropical charms
The embass[Bm7]ies lie in [G7]hideous shards
Where t[A#7]ourists snore and [A7]decay
Verse 2:
When they d[Bm7]ance in a [G7]reptile blaze
You wear a [Bm7]mask an eq[G7]uatorial haze
Into the [Bm7]past a co[G7]lonial maze
Where there's [A#7]no more confetti to [A7]throw
Chorus 1:
[G#m7] You didn't [C#7]know what to say to you[G#m7]rself
Love is a p[C#7]overty you couldn't s[F#m7]ell
[B7] Misery waiting in vague [E7]hotels....
To b[G7]e e[F#7]victed....
Instrumental Break 1: Bm7 Bm7 G7 G7 G7 G7 G7
(x2)
Verse 3:
You're out of [Bm7]luck you're singing [G7]funeral songs
To the [Bm7]studs they're ana[G7]bolic and bronze
They seem to [Bm7]strut in their mi[G7]llennial fogs
Til they [A#7]fall down and [A7]deflate
Chorus 2:
[G#m7] You didn't [C#7]know what to say to you[G#m7]rself
Love is a p[C#7]overty you couldn't s[F#m7]ell
[B7] Misery waiting in vague [E7]hotels....
To b[G7]e e[F#7]victed....
Instrumental Break 2: Bm7 Bm7 G7 G7 G7 G7 G7
(x2)
Verse 4:
[Bm7]Oh and [G7]now you've had your [Bm7]fun
Under an [G7]air-conditioned [Bm7]sun
It's [G7]burned into your [Bm7]eyes
Leaves you [G7]plain and left [Bm7]behind
I [G7]see them eyes and [Bm7]fall
Into the [A7]jaws of a pestilent[G#7] love
Chorus 3:
[G#m7] You didn't [C#7]know what to say to you[G#m7]rself
Love is a p[C#7]overty you couldn't s[F#m7]ell
[B7] Misery waiting in vague [E7]hotels....
To b[G7]e e[F#7]victed....
Instrumental Break 3/Outro: Bm7 Bm7 G7 G7 G7 G7 G7
