Verse 1
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7]
I like to wear soft clothing, 'cause it

Soft clothes protect me from my feelings, yeah
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7/G]
Switched on the TV and it's broken
[Bbmaj7/F] [Cm9/G]
Thinking, "Why didn't I know this?"
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7] [Bbmaj7/F] [Cm7/F]
And my heart is frozen, my mind is open
[Bbmaj7] [F9sus]*
No one knows this

But it might be a losing medal for losers

Makes my friends perceive me much more tenderly
[Bbmaj7/F] [Cm7/F]
Got friends! They're pretty friendly

I wrote a book about friendship

And my friends like to read it
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7] [Bbmaj7/F] [F9sus]
And they're impressed by the number of pages it has, yeah

Then the cat can walk me back

I'm a fool
[Bbmaj7/F] [Cm7/F]
Like a fool, I'm foolish
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7/G] [Bbmaj7/F] [F9sus]
Like a fool, I get fooled when something cool is on the news
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7add11]
Turn on the news
[Bbmaj7/F] [F9sus]
I get turned on by the news
[Bbmaj7] [Cm7add11]
'Cause the news gets more news
[Bbmaj7/F] [Cm7/F]
Whenever there's cool news
[Prechorus 2]
[Cbass] [C5maj7] N.C. [C5maj7]
Sh, sh, be very quiet
([G/B] [Am] [G] [D5add7] [G])***

I'll run to you
[Ebadd9] [Bb] [Fadd4]
I'll come to you
Outro
[Gmaj9]****
Soft clothing is so untouchable
Especially when it's juxtaposed
N.C.
With clothes of different roughnesses, and
N.C.
Ugh, I'm gonna be sick

Any chords which may seem to be out of sync with the lyrics are (probably) not.
*If you're wondering why the chord at the end of each line is sometimes a Cm7/F
and sometimes an F9sus, this is because they are almost equivelant, only distinguished
by an occasional F note in the "right hand".
**Actually very sparce in the recording, but I think this sounds interesting.
***All of these chords have no bass, and are very sparse and brief, merely suggested by
ambient harmonies and notes while a possibly more solid background chord (not written)
is formed by running arpeggios/glissandos
****This chord starts missing bass and many of its notes, then slowly starts to form
throughout the outro, where it serves as a kind of guide for the musical chaos.
