(These are the official lyrics from Car Seat Headrest's Bandcamp page save for a
couple of chorus verses that I swapped places around.)
[Verse 1]
AIf I can Gfit my dreams
AYou say the same things Gover and over
GInto an AB FAB rhyme scheme
GYou say the same things E7over and over
ALove is a way of Gpassing on our genes
ALove is because we want to Gfurther our genes
GGod is a scientist, he's juFst found out about us
He's Gpublished a study but he donE7't know much about us
[Chorus]
AWhen I die I Gwon't beGm7/F#come a ghost Em
Because I’ll F#mhave nowhere to haunt
AFuck this town and Gfuck my Gm7/F#dirty hands Em
When you're strange if they lF#mike you then they gotta be stranAger
But they're just straAngers
[Verse 2]
ASociety wants me to fuGck, well fuck 'em
A Car Seat is a geGnetic stop sign
GI sleep lying Fnext to a mirror
GCar Seat is a E7menace to the public
ALove is a way of Gadvancing our species
ALove is because we want to Gkeep up our species
GGod is a director, he's Fjust found out about us
He's Gtalked to our agents but he doE7n't know much about us
[Chorus]
AWhen I die I Gwon't beGm7/F#come a ghost Em
Because I’ll F#mhave nowhere to haunt
AFuck this town and Gfuck my Gm7/F#dirty hands Em
When you're strange then the F#mcritics gotta be stranger A
But they're just strAangers
[Outro]
DCar Seat's nervous and the Alights are bright
F#mWhen I was a kid I fell in Esus4love with Michael EStipe
I took Dlyrics out of context and thought A
"He must be speaking to me" Esus4 E
DI won't last too much Alonger
I'm F#malready starting to Erun out of places for Dfaces in my head
They're aF#mll starting to look the sEsus4ame E
DI won't last too much Alonger
I'm F#malready starting to Erun out of places for Dfaces in my head
They're aF#mll starting to look the sEsus4ame E
