Nemesis Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]So I opened the front door[F]
You walked in all [C]hand[G]some[Am]
And [G]ready for [F]something
you saw in my eyes
Right [Am]here, we sat and we [F]tripped out
Saw celestial mo[C]saics [G]and[Am] I fell a[G]nd
[Dm]I crawled [D]over and held your [Dm]hand

[Verse 2]
[F]Nobody [G]worried [Am]about the
roof being blown off
So [F]I went f[G]arther than
I'd [C]ever gone be[G#]fore
[E]Change,

[Verse 3]
[Am]you are my nemes[C]is
Transition, I [G]hold my [F]breath
You saw my face, [Dm]I'm exc[D]ited
[G]I'm excited yet,
[Am]I'm filled with despair [C]anti[G]cipation and dread[F]
This metamorphosis closed the
[Em]door and opened a win[Am]dow

[Verse 4]
[Am]And so I climbed t[F]he stairs and bled
And here was [C]a star [G]seed[Am]
Right [G]here he [F]came to us in
the bed in our bedroom
[Am]And you trusted me enoug[F]h
to follow me anywhere
Or the oth[C]er way [G]around[Am]
The [G]other way [Dm]around [D]as well
[Dm]And I [F]blocked my nose [G]and
dove [Am]in the deep end
[F]And swam like my [G]life depended
[C]on it and it [E]did

[Verse 5]
[Am]Change, you are my [C]nemesis
Transition, I [G]hold [F]my breath
you saw my face, [Dm]I'm exc[D]ited
[Dm]I'm [G]excited yet [Am]I'm filled with des
[C]pair [G]anticipation and [F]dread
This [Dm]metamorphosis [D]closed the
[Em]door and [E]opened [Am]a window[F]

[Verse 6]
[D]Oh, [C]oh[E][F]
[D]Oh, [G]oh[Gsus4]
[G]Oh
[E]

[Verse 7]
Right [Am]here
In this very [F]backyard
We promised [C]forever[G][Am]
And [G]we put our [F]hel[Fm]met s on
and threw the con[E]fet[Am]ti
And then there's the [F]phone call
Telling me [C]to breathe [G]in through
[Am]my nose and ou[G]t my m[D]outh
And out [Dm]came our [F]girl faster
[G]than we [Am]thought
And [F]now I am [G]beyond [C]recog[Em]nition
I guess that's a [Am]good thing
And still, I want [C]to go deeper

[Verse 8]
[Am]Change, you are my [C]nemesis
Transition, I [G]hold my [F]breath
You saw my face, [Dm]I'm excited
[G]I'm excited [Am]yet I'm filled with desp[C]air,
[Am]anti[C]cipa[G]tion and dread[F]
This [Dm]metamorphosis closed the
[E]door and opened a win[F]dow

[Verse 9]
Oh, [F]oh, [D]oh[C][E]
Ah, [Am]oh

[Outro 1]
