[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[F]Mr.[Em] Sandman sho[Am]wing his beam
When he [F]walks into the [Em]room
The [Am]walls lean in to listen
[F]Surf out[Em] bra[Am]in waves
Click back and forth
like [F]old headlights
[Am]Sniffing model glue again

[Verse 2]
[F]Head like [Em]a steel [Am]trap
Wish I didn't, I didn't,
I [F]didn't, I didn't,
[Em]I didn[Am]'t, I didn't,
I didn't, I don't
[F]Just wan[Em]t to [G]be [Am]a
[G]footnote [Am]in so[F]meone else[Em]'s happi[Am]ness.

[Verse 3]
[F]Does your [Em]husband [Am]know the way that
[F]The sunshine [Em]gleams [Am]from
your wedding band?
Does he [F]know [Em]the way [G]to worship [Am]I know
Of the [F]crickets that would [Em]convince
[Am]me to call it a night?

[Verse 4]
[C]I will n[G]ever end up like h[Am]im
Behind my [F]back, I already am.
[C]Keep a calendar, thi[G]s way
You will [Am]always know.

[Verse 6]
[F]Tempest in [Em]a teacup,[Am]
Get unique.
[F]Peroxide [Em]Princess [Am]shine
like shark teeth
It's [F]a sign, [Em](it's[Am] a sign)
[G]It's a sign, [Am](it's a sign)
[F]It's a sign, what [Em]if y[Am]ou peaked early.

[Verse 7]
[F]Does your [Em]husband [Am]know the way that
[F]The sunshine [Em]gleams [Am]from

[Am]Of the crick[F]ets that would convi[Em]nce
