(Verse 1)
There's a [A]heat in the pavement
My mercury's [F#m]raising
Don't [G]know if it’s love or if it's ovulation
[Em]When you're [F#m]holding a hammer, everything [D]looks like a [G]nail
The [A]mist from the fountain is kissin' my neck
[F#m]The li [G]quid crystals in my grip
[Em] [F#m]Anyone with a snake tongue,
I show 'em the [D]chambers [G]of my heart
(Pre-chorus)
Now I [A]know you don't deal much in love and [F#m]affection
But I [G]really do think there could be a [Em]connection
I [F#m]run and I sing and I skip and I dance
[D]Some [G]days I'm a woman, some days I'm a man Oh
(Chorus)
[A]I might have been born again
I'm [G]ready to feel like I don't have the answers
Thеre's [F#m]peace in thе madness
Over our heads, let it
[G]Carry me o-o-o-o, [A]on
(Post-chorus)
[G]Ah-ah [F#m]Ah-ah-ah [G]Ah-ah-ah
(Verse 2)
Today I'll [A]go to Canal Street, they're piercing my ears
I'm [G]makin' a wish when the needle goes in
Take [F#m]an aura picture
Read it and tell me who [G]I am (Show me who I am)
(Pre-chorus)
Now I [A]know you don't deal much in love and affection
But I [G]really do think you can make an exception
It's a [F#m]beautiful life, so I play truant
[G]I jerk tears and they pay me to do it Oh
(Chorus)
[A]I might have been born again
I'm [G]ready to feel like I don't have the answers
Thеre's [F#m]peace in thе madness
Over our heads, let it
[G]Carry me o-o-o-o, [A]on
(Post-chorus)
[G]Ah-ah [F#m]Ah-ah-ah [G]Ah-ah-ah
Ah- [A]ah-ah [G]Ah-ah-ah
Ah- [F#m]ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
[G]Ah-ah-ah
(Outro)
Let it [A]break me down, till I'm just a wreck
Till I'm [G]just a voice living in your head
It's a [F#m]fucked up world, been to hell and back
But I've [G]sent you a postcard from the [A]edge
The [G]edge
[F#m]Oh Oh-oh Oh
[G]Oh-oh Oh
