Permanence

C Bm Em G

   C        Bm                Em    G
We sing our love songs in the dark
So no one has to hear the sparks
   C        Bm         Em         G
We hold our seances by streetlamp light
In Queen's Park, when the moon's just right
C        Bm     Em       G
Tom says he can hear the colours
        C         Bm      Em             G      C
When he holds his eyes together real tight

       Bm    G           G                C
I want permanence in the little things
        Bm        G               C
While I leak rust from my broken jeans
          Bm       G
I want to feel chaotic
    C         Bm        G
But calm enough to hold you in the morning

   C        Bm              Em
We look for patterns in the static
               G            (C)
Play hide and seek in your deathtrap of an attic
          C           Bm     Em
There's a door that leads to nothing
           G                   C
Well, I'm sure that stands for something
      Bm       Em
But I hold my breath
    G                    C
And pray when the summer ends
    Bm            Em    G
You still haven't found me

       Bm    C           G                C
I want permanence in the little things
        Bm         G              C
While I leak rust from my broken jeans
          Bm       G
I want to feel chaotic (chaotic)
     C        Bm        G
But calm enough to hold you in the morning

   C      Bm      Em     G
I want it all and I want nothing
   C        Bm   Em       G
I wish this came with instructions
          C  C  Bm   Bm    Em         G
I'd press up up down down, left right left
         C       Bm      Em            G
Watch my beat-up vans become a private jet

             C       Bm   Em
And we could fly out to Alaska
                                    G
I'll ride my bike till I reach the highlands
      C    Bm       Em  G
Bathe everything in kerosene
          C   Bm        Em            G
And sing "bye bye Miss American Pie"
               C          Bm
Pushed your Toyota to the motor
        Em       G       C
But the tank ran dry

       Bm    C           G                  C
I want permanence in the little things
        Bm         G              C
While I leak rust from my broken jeans
          Bm       G
I want to feel chaotic (chaotic)
     C        Bm        G
But calm enough to hold you in the morning
       Bm    C           G
I want permanence in the little things (I want permanence)
        Bm         G              C
While I leak rust from my broken jeans
          Bm       G
I want to feel chaotic (chaotic)
    C         Bm        G
But calm enough to hold you in the morning
