[Verso 1]
 
           D 
Electrified 
and lit up by an outline of herself 
Smiling now as only she can be. 
                C 
She said I made some new connections 
           G 
to astound them all 
              D 
In ways we've never dreamed about 
 


[Verso 2]
 
    D 
Her lovely hand is glowing from 
the light inside itself 
From soaking in the esters stacked 
for miles on a single shelf 
C 
Holding my eyes still so she can see 
G               D 
If all the superundercover custom 
hybrids got to me

C        D 
It's too much 
You're too late 
I want to see it all again 
         C 
She says keep this benzene ring 
around your finger 
G       A       G              D 
And think of me when everything 
you wanted starts to end 
And I saw living clusters form in pools 
beneath her feet 
Invertebrates that only she can see 
           C 
And I said what on earth 
are all these ampuls for 
G 
She says exactly, 
          D 
we're not gunna wait around here anymore 
 


[Verso 4]
 
C 
Systems back down slow, 
                     D C 
watch the dust cloud resend 
And I will keep you. I 
                       D 
will keep you till the end 
C 
Set your head down low, 
              D 
watch my ears ring 
C 
I will take care of you. I will take care of everything

Systems back down slow, 
                     D C 
watch the dust cloud resend 
And I will keep you. I will keep 
             D 
you till the end 
C 
Set your head down low, 
              D 
watch my ears ring 
C 
I will take care of you. 
I will take care of everything

It's too much 
You're too late 
  C                                G 
I piloted my distance to the ground 
                  D 
And I think I see myself 
     C 
again

through a pinhole 
C       D 
But the pinhole captures all 
C  D    C D 
of you 
And the pinhole captures 
          C D 
all of you
