TUNING: EADGBe
F G C F
Seconds from pajamas I must first open all the doors
and the windows
G C
and invite the vampire in to be one of us.
F G C F
Then, in the guise of cool air, in the softer hours,
he's there, sitting, talking
G
in the voice of your mother
C F
about leaving one good party for another
G
and the night of a thousand missteps
C F
and the loss that made him dogged
G
or it could have been the doggedness
C F
that caused the loss in the first place, I guess.
G Am C
I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find.
F G Am C
I could've made chancellor without you on my mind.
F G C F
Crazy daisies and wooden stars,
the threat of oxygen on Mars,
marching armies in the night
smiling strangers riding by on bikes.
Children smoking, sloganeers on mics,
just a few things most vampires don't like.
I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find.
I could've made chancellor without you on my mind.
Before the dawning's first light
I must first close up all the doors and the windows
and try to trap that cool air to be one with us.
I'm discovering uses for you I thought I'd never find.
I could've made chancellor without you on my mind.
