Kid Gloves Voxtrot
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Em]Listen to the sounds of ringing out around you
[Bm]these are the cries of a dying breed
[Em]Politics of hate you'd never get around to
[Bm]blood over brains that we never need
[Em]I saw you in the back, studied and relaxed
[Bm]fixed in the post like a silent stone
[Em]Serenity and tact, it's the feeling that I lack
[Bm]Life in the floors of a stable home
I can tr[G]ace you on paper like a ske[D]tch of a smell
You're a br[G]eath to the runner in con[D]test
In cl[G]ose to the nerve, but you r[F#]est so far a[Bm]way
and I have to gi[G]ve it up som[A]eday
[D]Every time I close my e[A]yes I see you in fr[G]ont of me
[F#m]Pretending in a l[Em]ove like th[D]is
I have no cho[A]ice but to put you in b[Em]ack of me
Don't co[G]ver my foot[A]steps
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no g[G]ood for me
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no righ[G]teous leader
[D]You're dead weight-all ri[A]ght, that's fine-but get your h[Em]ands off me
You have to touch me with k[G]id gloves
You have to touch me with [Bm]kid gloves
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm]
[Bm]Body to the wind, you talk me out of standstill
[Em]I never felt so alive at once
[Bm]Finger to the quick, yes I can feel your hand still
[Em]pressed to the drain of the coming months
Cheer me [Em]up, cheer me, up I'm a miserable f**k
Cheer me [C]up, cheer me, up I'm a tireless bore
Cheer me [G]up, cheer me up, I'm inv[F]isibly stuck all in [Em]myself
Yes I?m a vanity whore
Because it's r[G]ace and it's power at the cen[D]ter of life,
we?re bl[G]ind to the people who n[D]eed us,
but yo[G]u're the kind of person who could unde[F#]rstand that f[Bm]ault
and I hope to mea[G]sure you som[A]eday.
[D]Every time I close my e[A]yes I see you in fr[G]ont of me
[F#m]Pretending in a l[Em]ove like th[D]is
I have no cho[A]ice but to put you in b[Em]ack of me
Don't co[G]ver my foot[A]steps
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no g[G]ood for me
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no righ[G]teous leader
[D]You're dead weight-all ri[A]ght, that's fine-but get your h[Em]ands off me
You have to touch me with k[G]id gloves
You have to touch me with [Bm]kid gloves
[Em] [C]
[G] [F]
Cheer me [Em]up, cheer me, up I'm a miserable f**k
Cheer me [C]up, cheer me, up I'm a tireless bore
Cheer me [G]up, cheer me up, I'm inv[F]isibly stuck all in [Em]myself
Yes I?m a vanity whore
Cheer me [Em]up, cheer me, up I'm a miserable f**k
Cheer me [C]up, cheer me, up I'm a tireless bore
When you comp[Bm]romise yourself like that
It's a dedi[A]cation
So even on frie[Bm]ndship
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no g[G]ood for me
[Bm]Dead weight all right, I know you're no righ[G]teous leader
[D]Dead weight-all ri[A]ght, that's fine-but get your h[Em]ands off me
You have to touch me with k[G]id gloves
You have to touch me with kid [Bm] gloves
