C#m C#m/G# C#m C#m/G#
 
[Verse I]
                       E          C#m C#m/G#
Though you can't intimidate the trees
    C#m     C#m/G#       E          C#m C#m/G#
A snowman sweating in a terrible breeze

[Chorus]
    G#           F#                Bm
Put on your new pants move out to France
          G                G#m
All the skeletons in your closet
     F#                       B
Are rummaging through your clothes
           G                          E
Looking through your shoe boxes and pockets
 A                         G#    C#m C#m/G# C#m C#m/G# C#m
Gum wrappers and dumb love no____tes
  
[Verse II]
                          E            C#m C#m/G#
People say your brain is like cream cheese
 C#       C#m/G#       E           C#m C#m/G#
Takes the shape of anything you please
 
[Chorus]
     G#               F#                  Bm
The dust from the trails under your fingernails
      G                       E
The leaves in the Luxembourg Garden
      F#                  B
Are showing their true colors
         G                             E
They're blushing they're begging your pardon
      A                  G#   C#m C#m/G# C#m C#m/G#
'Cuz time's a jealous lover
 
[Bridge]
    C#m        E (x76454)
I recall the first time
          D#       G#
That you passed me by
C#m      F#
And I saw my demise
       A              G#
In your stained glass eyes

[Solo] 
C#m... E  C#m C#m/G# C# C#m/G# E C#


[Chorus]
     G#               F#                  Bm
The dust from the trails under your fingernails
      G                       E
The leaves in the Luxembourg Garden
      F#                  B
Are showing their true colors
         G                             E
They're blushing they're begging your pardon
      A                  G#    C#m C#m/G# C#m C#m/G#
'Cuz time's a jealous lover

[Verse III]
                            E      C#m C#m/G# C#
Canary singing through the calico teeth
                       E       C#
Everything's exactly what it seems
