Track 4 – The Louvre

Verse 1

[C] [Em]

Well summer slipped us underneath her tongue

[F] [Am]

Our days and nights are perfumed with obsession

[G]

Half of my wardrobe is on your bedroom floor

Use our eyes, throw our hands overboard

[C] [Em]

I am your sweetheart, psychopathic crush

[F] [Am]

Drink up your movements, still I can't get enough

[G]

I overthink your p-punctuation use

Not my fault, just a thing that my mind do

Chorus 1

[F] [G] [Am]

A ru-u-u-ush at the beginning

[F] [G] [Am]

I get caught u-u-u-up, just for a minute

[F] [G] [Am]

But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing, can you hear the violence?

[F] [G] [Am]

Megapho-o-o-one to my chest

N.C.

Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it

[Post-Chorus 1]

[F] [G] [Am] [G]

Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it

Verse 2

[C] [Em]

Our thing progresses, I call and you come through

[F] [Am]

Blow all my friendships, to sit in hell with you

[G]

But we're the greatest, they'll hang us in the Louvre

Down the back, but who cares, still the Louvre

[C] [Em]

Okay I know that you are not my type (still I fall)

[F] [Am]

I'm just the sucker who let you fill her mind (but what about love?)

[G]

Nothing wrong with it, supernatural

[F] [G]

Just move in close to me, closer, you'll feel it coasting

Chorus 2

[F] [G] [Am]

A ru-u-u-ush at the beginning

[C] [Em]

God I wish I believed you when you told me this was my home, oh oh

Verse 2

I light all the candles, cut flowers for all my rooms

[Em] [C]

I care for myself the way I used to care about you

It's time to let go of this endless summer afternoon

Now I'll fake it every single day 'til I don't need fantasy, 'til I feel you leave

[G] [C]
