G#m        F#                 E
     So I managed to make myself cold,
                     G#m
Just like I wanted to.
     F#                       E
So I managed to be buried in snow.
   G#m                  F#
I thought that wearing white
      E
Would make me good,
                  G#m
Bring out my eyes,
          F#               E
I thought virtue could be mine.


[Verse 2]

             G#m                F#
We already know that there's no rock
            E
To buy the things we need to live,
                     G#m
So we must open our mouths,
    F#          E                       G#m       F#
And close our eyes, and tilt back our heads
                E
And lift up our arms.

G#m F# E


[Verse 3]

            G#m             F#
Travelling north to winter nights
             E
Was how I planned on getting pure
            G#m              F#            E
And frozen white, soft and snakey northern lights.


[Verse 4]

    G#m              F#
I stood, and yes, I managed
            E
To wash my face there in the snow,
                        G#m
Clean the crud from my eyes
    F#       E
And gasp and see
G#m  F#  E  G#m  F#  E
dawn...              dawning.


[Verse 5]

          G#m     F#                     E
The first rays of light coming over the hill

Clearly belted out.
                        G#m         F#
… Let's get out of the romance.
                     E
Let's get out of the romance.


[Verse 6]

    G#m             F#
But still I had my hopes
       E
Of how picturesque I would be
              G#m   F#                 E
Watching the sunrise, so the sun surprised.
                     G#m
It was on the other side. I gasped,
   F#                      E
I turned and re-opened my eyes
         G#m   F#     E
And felt size rise
                      G#m       F#
To clear and towering words.
           E
I sang along...


[Chorus]

                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance.
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance.
G#m           F#                    E
The sweetness in the world looks so gross in that disguise.
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance.
G#m            F#                   E
The sweetness in the world looks so gross in that disguise.
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (There's only one way)
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (Say "Goodbye" and "No")
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (Forget it)
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (Forget sacred paths, forget scenic views)
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (Forget, forget, forget, forget truths)
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance. (Forget golden friendships)
                      G#m        F#
Let's get out of the romance.
                      E
Let's get out of the romance.
