  			             C 
Last night I drove to Harper's Ferry and I thought about you 
There were signs on the road that warned me of stop signs 
    D 
The speed limit kept decreasing by ten 
As we entered a town about halfway there 
       G 
It was almost raining at the train station 
We threw our hoods on our heads at the train station 
         Bm 
We threw rocks into the river 
The river underneath the train tracks 

             C 
And when the train came it was so big and powerful 
When it came into the little station 
            D 
I wanted to put my arms around it 
But the conductor looked at me funny 
      G 
So we had to say goodbye that week 
The Monopoly board still in the backseat 
          Bm 
Took that nightmare left turn to get out of town 
Ran into the decreasing speed limits again 

C 
What should I do? Eat breakfast 
What should I do? Eat lunch 
D 
What should I do? Eat dinner 
What should I do? Go to bed 
G 
Where can I go? Go the store 
Where can I go? Apply for jobs 
Bm 
Where can I go? Go to a friend's 
Where can I go? Go to bed 

( C  D  G  Bm ) 

C 
I wrote Beach Death when I thought you were taken 
I wrote Beach Funeral when I knew you were taken 
    D 
I wrote Beach Fagz, well it wasn't about you 
But it could've been, well no it couldn't have 
G 
I spent a week in Ocean City 
And came back to find you were gone 
Bm 
I spent a week in Illinois 
And came back to find you were still gone 

     C 
I pretended I was drunk 
When I came out to my friends 
        D 
I never came out to my friends 
We were all on Skype 
      G 
And I laughed and changed the subject 
                            Bm 
She said, "What's with this dog motif?" 
                                       C  D  G  Bm 
I said, "Do you have something against dogs?" 

C 
I am almost completely soulless 
I am incapable of being human 
D 
I am incapable of being inhuman 
I am living uncontrollably 
          G 
It should be antidepression 
As a friend of mine suggested 
           Bm 
Cause it's not the sadness that hurts you 
It's the brain's reaction against it 

C 
It's not enough to love the unreal 
I am inseparable from the impossible 
D 
I want gravity to stop for me 
                                               G 
My soul yearns for a fugitive from the laws of nature 
I want a cutscene 
        Bm 
I wanna cut from your face 
To my face I want a cut I want the next related video

                     D 
I don't want to go insane 
G                          Bm 
I don't want to have schizophrenia 
    C                            D 
The ocean washed over your grave 
    G                            Bm 
The ocean washed open your grave

It's been a year since we first met 
G 
I don't know if we're boyfriends yet

G 
We can use to pass the time

I am running out of drugs to try and I 

                     G

  C 
A book of Aubrey Beardsley art 
   G 
Corrupted me in youth 
            C 
And now I'm trapped inside my youth 
              G 
And you're in love with late stage youth 
C 
Thank god for the little things and and 
G 
Fuck god that they're little things I am 
C                                     G 
Running out of prayers to sing and I 

C 
And pretty soon you'll find some nice young 
G 
Satanist with braces and one 
C 
Capital o significant Other 
G 
And you can take him home to your mother 

And say "ma, this is my brother"

Get eaten by the one you love 
          C                 G 
When they put their lips around you 
        C                          G 
You can feel their smile from the inside

Last night I dreamt he was trying to kill you 
                                       Bm 
I woke up and I was trying to kill you 

     C 
Your ears perked up 
I perked up when your ears perked up 
           D 
You were a-looking around 
                       G 
And I hoped it was for me 
                         Bm 
I hoped you were using your sonar systems for me 

    C 
The ancients saw it coming 
You can see that they tried to warn them 
       D 
In the tales that they told their children 
But they fell out of their heads in the morning 
      G 
They said sex can be frightening 
But the children were not listening 
        Bm 
And the children cut out everything 
Except for the kissing and the singing 

          C 
When they finally found their home 
At Walt Disney Studios 
         D 
And then everyone grew up 
With their fundamental schemas fucked 
              G 
But there are lots of fish left in the sea 
There are lots of fish in business suits 
     Bm 
That talk and walk on human feet 
Visit doctors, have weak knees 

C 
Oh please let me join your cult 
D 
I'll paint my face in your colors 
G 
You had a real nice face 
Bm 
I had an early death 

    C 
The ocean washed over your grave 
    D 
The ocean washed open your grave 
    G 
The ocean washed over your grave 
    Bm 
The ocean washed open your grave 

    C 
The ocean washed over your grave (how's your face, how's your body?) 
    D 
The ocean washed open your grave 
    G 
The ocean washed over your grave 
    Bm 
The ocean washed open your grave (we're too scared to do shit!) 

( C  D  G  Bm )
