CAPO II

E  G#m (x 2)

E  G#m                  E  G#m
I wanna live in a crooked house
E               G#m             E            G#m
All bent to hell, flipped over, inside out
F#m          B7
Four wayward walls
F#m              B7
In a dim lit hallway
E             C#7
That’s always calling
A             Am
Softly asking me to open
E              B7/F#
Each and every door
E              B7/F#
With the creaking of the floorboards
E              B7/F#
Unsettles dusty scores
E                             B7/F#             E
Where every haunting threshold I cross, I learn more

E  G#m                  E  G#m
I wanna love with this crooked heart
E               G#m             E            G#m
All beat to hell, skipped over, charged with sparks
F#m          B7
Four wayward chambers
F#m              B7
Pumped full of danger
           E        C#7          A                Am
Well, I’ll wager my fate for a glimpse of technicolor love
E                         B7/F#
Oh, enough with all these grays
E                    B7/F#
And shades of dead malaise
                   E              B7/F#                E
No, I’d rather I'd drawn out every crawl space in this maze

C#m
Beat, beat, my heart
               G#m
Beat, beat, my heart
               F#m
Beat, beat, my heart
               E
Beat, beat, my heart
               B
Beat, beat, my heart
               C#m
Beat, beat, my heart


E  G#m (x 2)

E  G#m                            E  G#m
I want to see straight with these crooked eyes
E               G#m             E            G#m
The truest blacks, the brilliant blinding whites
F#m          B7         F#m          B7
For every morning I wake in a muddy haze
         E           C#7   A         Am
Well, I make my case for a minor miracle
        E                          B7/F#
I might procure from out beyond the pale
          E                       B7/F#
Where the waiting tips the finest scales
           E              B7/F#
Oh, beyond all reasonable compare
            E              B7/F#
Where every single sense you’ve ever had
     C#7/G#    C#m
Is a momentary flair


Beat, beat, my heart
               G#m
Beat, beat, my heart
               F#m
Beat, beat, my heart
               E
Beat, beat, my heart
               B
Beat, beat, my heart
               C#m
Beat, beat, my heart (x2)
