G  C  Em  D  x2
G  C  Em  D  D ...

   G          C        Em        D
Your features defy all metaphor
    G       C       Em   D
And I'm the king of those
    G        D          Em                  C
Your hair is too pretty to be compared to a city
   G                 D           G
so I'll leave it out of all my prose

        G         C          Em   D
And your eyes are unlike any ocean
     G      C    Em  D
that I have ever seen
  G         D
Unlike any jewels
     Em                C
They break the writing rules
    G              D              G
And I am trying to keep this song clean

  C        Em      D
And not to mention
        G
despite pretension
        C           Em             D
You are infinitely interesting to me
   C       Em
It's so unexpected,
   D             G
my heart feels unprotected
       C                 Em              D   D
I'm so thankful for that way you look at me, me

G  C  Em  D
G  C  Em  D  D ...

    G                   C        Em  D
And everything that you say is a poem
    G             C     Em  D
And I'm hooked on every word
     G               D
Your mouth speaks no lies,
   Em       C
it needs to alibis
    G       D              G
and not one single word is slurred

    G               C          Em  D
And I love that you talk about Dylan
   G        C         Em  D
And all the books you read
  G           D      Em               C
I know you so well, didn't notice any spell
    G              D          G
But you seem to be taking the lead

  C        Em      D
And not to mention
        G
despite pretension
        C           Em             D
You are infinitely interesting to me
   C       Em
It's so unexpected,
   D             G
my heart feels unprotected
       C                Em               D
I'm so thankful for that way you look at me

  C        Em      D
And not to mention
        G
despite pretension
        C           Em             D
You are infinitely interesting to me
   C       Em
It's so unexpected,
   D             G
my heart feels unprotected
       C                Em               D   D
I'm so thankful for that way you look at me, me
