Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F#]

[Verse 1]
[G]You can be my alphabet
And I will be your calculat[F#]or
And together we'll work

[Verse 2]
out on the escalator
[G]I will time you as you run up to down
And [F#]you will measure my footsteps
as I pleasure this town
[D]The mea[G]n of our heights
is divided by the
Nights
Which is [F#]timed by the daggers
in the root of all our fights

[Verse 3]
The [G]pass of your poem is
to sway me in your knowing
And the [F#]beauty of the word is that

[Verse 4]
you don't have to show it
[Bm]Oh A[G]cademi a[D], you can pick me up,
[G]soothe me with you[Asus4]r words w[Bb]hen I need yo[C]ur love.

[Verse 5]
[G]I am a dash and you are a dot,
[F#]when will you see that I am all that you've got?

[Verse 6]
I'm a [G]binary code that you cracked long ago,
but to [F#]you I'm just a novel that you wish you never wrote

[Verse 7]
I'm [G]greater than x, and lesser than y

[Verse 8]
So [F#]why is it that I still can't
catch your eye?

[Verse 9]
You're [G]a cryptic crossword, a
song I've never heard
While I'm [F#]sit ting here drawing
circles I'm afraid of being hurt
[Bm]Oh

[Verse 10]
[G]Academi[D] a, you can pick me up,
[G]soothe me with you[Asus4]r words w[Bb]hen I need yo[C]ur love.

[Verse 11]
You're [G]a difficult equation with
a knack for heart evasion
Will you [F#]listen to my proof or will
you add another page on?
It ap[G]pears to me the graph has
come and stolen all the laughs
It ap[F#]pears to me the pen
is over analyzed again

[Verse 12]
And [G]if I am a number I'm infinity plus one
And [F#]if you are five words you
are afraid to be the one
And [G]if you are a number,
you're infinity plus one
An[F#]d if I'm four words then I
am needing of your love.

[Verse 13]
[Bm]Oh A[G]cademi a[D], you can pick me up ,[G]
soothe me with your [Asus4]word s wh[Bb]en I need you[C]r love.
