The Alarmist

	  		
Intro: G Am  C G Am 

G 
You left gleamin’ 
                    Am 
A green rectangle around the door 
                  C               G 
Please be careful 
G               Am 
What you wish for 
G 
I whisper to myself 
                Am 
Then I’m spinning it half around 
              C G 
Like an echo 
G         Am 
A far away sound 

            G                 Am 
Saying be good to me 
    G                Am 
Be good to me 

G        Am     C G Am 
G 
Marigold in the garden 
       Am 
My heart is out in the garbage 
         C           G 
I am being 
G    Am 
An alarmist 
                G 
Cause for as far as I see 
        Am 
It’s terrible territory 
                   C              G 
And there’s no one 
         Am 
To reassure me 
                      G      Am 
So it would be good to talk 
G                   Am 
For my sanity 
         G                      Am 
Now do what you feel like you gotta do 
       G                     Am 
But be good to me 
C                 D 
When you walk away 
        Em                      Am 
You still exist and I feel good knowing it 
C                 D 
If it hurts me 
        Em                      Am 
Why'd I rely so much on it in the first place? 
C                 D 
If it's happening 
        Em                      Am 
Then why's this feeling taking over me? 
C                 D 
Could I believe 
        Em                      Am 
In the me before I knew you beautifully? (x4)
