Our New Intelligence
guitar chords lyrics
Capo 3
Intro:
Gm, Gm (moved up to 5th fret), Em, C 2x
G, Am, Em, C 4x
Verse:
Gm, Gm (moved up to 5th), Em, C, G, Am, Em, C 3x
Stolen Aphrodite, beautiful and mighty
Act like you can find me tucked beneath a vine leaf
Try to keep my head down,
Try to keep my mouth shut
D, Em, C
You do not exist; you are a product of my loneliness
G, Am, Em, C 2x
Verse 2:
Gm, Gm (moved to 5th), Em, C, G, Am, Em, C 2x
Never let you in, I'll never let you find me
Butcher what you do have, put your past behind me
D, Em
I am not afraid and will not buckle under ignorance
D, Em
And you could find a purpose while I fumbled for deliverance
D, Em, C
I'm happy but I wouldn't put it past our new intelligence
G, Am, Em, C 4x
G (change rhythm)
(short strums)
G, C, G, Am, C, G 4x
So we swam to the bottom of the sea
Found faith and a little bit of sanity
Oh some peace and quiet may be what I need
It'll be a lot better if you're honest with me
(The way I think that I should get away sometimes the
Way I wish that you would try and compromise)
Cause I'm sick of saying where I don't belong
If you just don't talk than you can't be wrong
So you sit there smug with the stereo on
Typing, yes, yes, never to your favorite song
(The way I think that I should get away sometimes the
Way I wish that you would try and compromise)
Oh you can't find love where you thought you would
Every single lead you had is turning up no good
G, C, G, Am (drag out Am)
I can change my mind if you think you could
I would move my belongings if you thought I should
G, C, G, D 4x
(keyboard)
And every single time I think I'll keep my cool
I catch my other body making eyes at you
And instincts are deceiving, do you trust me to run away
Run away
Run away
Because you were never anything I thought I'd want
I've been trying for a while and this thing I got
Left me rambling and stumbling over what I say
And I say, and I say, and I say
Em, C, G
Run away, run away, run away
G, G(moved to 4th?), Em, C 4x
G, Am, Em, C 4x
G, Am, Em, C 4x
Stolen Aphrodite, beautiful and mighty
Act like you can find me tucked beneath a vine leaf
D, Em, C 3x
This was never anything I wanted you to suffer for
Despite how much I love my home
I find I'm missing Baltimore
Tied and gagged and bound to soil
I will taste forever more
G, Am, Em, C 4x
