[Intro 1]
[G][A][G][A]

[Verse 1]
It [G]has been forever,
[A]I've been meaning to write this letter
[G]Tell everything, everything to [A]you
[G]Everything gets in the way,
just run[A]ning around from day to day
[G]I'm thinking of things
I've got to say to [A]you
And the [Bm]stars just won't stand [E]still
[Esus4]They fall[Bm] into my eyes[E]
I'm [Bm]blinded and [Esus4]I'm hypno[E]tized
I want to tell [D]you
everything that's [A]in my head
[Am]A rum and skee[C]t and a drum machine
[Am]and [Em]five animals a[G]re in my bed
[D]Everything, my de[A]sire
is [Am]to di[C]e where th[Am]e oc[G]ean
meets the [D]fire[E]
[D]Oh, [A]eve[Am]rythi[A]ng, everythi[E]ng
[A]Well, [G]I've seen too many places
[A]Cities full of passing faces
[G]Blind and bound and right
out of my [A]mind
Friend[G]s and lovers bring me round,
say [A]hold on to the throbbing ground,
[G]hold on to a little piece of tim[A]e[F#m][A]
And the [Bm]stars just won't
stand [Esus4]still,[E]
they [Bm]fall into my [Esus4]eye s[E]
[Esus4]I'm blind[Bm]ed and I'm h[E]ypnotized
I wanna tell you
[D]everything that's [A]in my head
A [Gm]rhyming [C]scheme and a drum machine
an[Am]d a li[Em]ve animal in[G] my bed
[D]Everything, my [A]desire
Is [Am]to die wh[C]ere the ocean
[G]meets the [D]fire[E]
Oh -oh -o[Bm]h -oh[D] -oh
-oh [E]-oh -oh -oh
Oh -o[D]h -oh[Am] -oh -oh -oh[A] -oh
Everything
[E]And [A]the sta[Bm]rs just
won't stand [Esus4]still
[E]Fall [Esus4]into my e[Bm]ye[E]
[Esus4]s[E][Esus4][Bm]
Blinded and [E]I'm hypnotized
I won't tell you [D]everything
Everything that's [A]in my head
[Am]A rhyming scheme, a drum machine
And [Em]live animals are in my [G]bed
And [D]everything my de[A]sire
Is [Am]to di[C]e where the
[Am]ocean [G]meets the sky[D]
I'll [Dsus4]tell you ever[D]ything
that I can [A]cover
[Am]The rhyming schemes
and the little things
and the [G]revolutionary act of love
[D]Everything my de[A]sire is [Am]to d[C]ie where
the [Am]ocean [G]meets the [D]fire[E][D][E]
Oh, [A]everything, everything,

[Verse 2]
