Verse 1 
 
  F                     G                      Am7 
There's a tear in the fabric of your favorite dress 
 
                    C 
And I'm sneaking glances. 
 
  F                            G 
Looking for the patterns in static 
 
                     Am7 
They start to make sense  
 
                   C 
The longer I'm at it. 
 
Chorus

Oh wha-ho, oh wha-ho

Verse 2 
 
  F               G                         Am7 
Your heart is a river that flows from your chest 
 
                C 
Through every organ. 
 
  F                G 
Your brain is the dam 
 
              Am7 
And I am the fish 
 
                     C  
Who can't reach the core.

Oh, instincts are misleading 
 
 Em             F                  C  
You shouldn't think what you're feeling 
 
 Em                   F 
They don't tell you what

You know you should want

 Em                   F 
They don't tell you what 
 
 C  
You know you should want
