C
Look up, what do you see?
G
All of you and all of me
Em
Fluorescent and starry
Bm
Some of them, they surprise
C G
The bus ride, I went to write this, 4:00 a.m.
Em
This letter
C
Fields of poppies, little pearls
G Em
All the boys and all the girls sweet-toothed
Bm
Each and every one a little scary
C G Em
I said your name
C
I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars
G Em
Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras
Bm
Dreaming of Maria Callas
C G Em
Whoever she is
C
This fame thing, I don't get it
G
I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it
Em Bm
Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves
C
I can take you far
G Em
This star thing, I don't get it

CHORUS:
{rhy. fig 3A + 3B x4}
(I'll take you over, there)
(I'll take you over, there)
Aluminum, tastes like fear
Adrenaline, it pulls us near
(I'll take you over)
(It tastes like fear, there)
(I'll take you over)
Verse 2:
{RHY FIG 2A + 2B x2}
{RHY FIG 2A + 2C x2}
C G
Will you live to 83?
Em Bm
Will you ever welcome me?
C G Em
Will you show me something that nobody else has seen?
Smoke it, drink
C G
Here comes the flood
Em Bm
Anything to thin the blood
C G Em
These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet
C
Phone, eat it, drink
G
Just another chink
Em Bm
Cuts and dents, they catch the light
C G Em
Aluminum, the weakest link
C
I don't want to disappoint you
G
I'm not here to anoint you
Em
I would lick your feet
Bm
But is that sickest move?
C G
I wear my own crown and sadness and sorrow
Em
And who'd have thought tomorrow could be so strange?
CHORUS:
{rhy. fig 3A + 3B x4}
My loss, and here we go again
(I'll take you over, there)
(I'll take you over, there)
Aluminum, tastes like fear
Adrenaline, it pulls us near
(I'll take you over)
(It tastes like fear, there)
(I'll take you over)
BRIDGR:
{RHY FIG 1A + RHY FIG 1B x4}
VERSE 3:
{RHY FIG 2A + 2C x2}
C G
Look up, what do you see?
Em Bm
All of you and all of me
C
Fluorescent and starry
G Em
Some of them, they surprise
C G
I can't look it in the eyes
Em Bm
Seconal, spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene
C
Cherry-flavored neck and collar
G
I can smell the sorrow on your breath
Em
The sweat, the victory and sorrow
The smell of fear
CHORUS:
{rhy. fig 3A + 3B x12}
I got it
(I'll take you over, there)
(I'll take you over, there)
Aluminum, tastes like fear
Adrenaline, it pulls us near
(I'll take you over)
(It tastes like fear, there)
(I'll take you over)
Pulls us near
Tastes like fear..
Nearer, nearer
over, over, over, over
Yeah, look over
I'll take you there, oh, yeah
I'll take you there
Oh, over
I'll take you there
Over, let me
I'll take you there..
There, there, baby, yeah
