C# G# F# F#m 

verse 1 
C# 
You know the date on the 
G#                  F#  F#m 
Oldest coin in your palm 
C# 
I know the names of the 
Bbm               F#     F#m 
Flowers along the back wall 
    Bbm              F# 
But I get afraid one of us is bluffing 
C# 
The blooms they will fade and the 
D#                    F#      F#m 
Change will amount to nothing 
           C# 
Nothing at all 

verse 2 
    F# 
The laundromat's funny 
   C#         G# 
At two in the morning 
    F# 
The blonde on tv says 
C#           G# 
I too can be gorgeous 
    F# 
And hairless, it's easy 
C#         G# 
With laser assistance 
  F# 
I wish you would push me 
  G# 
Around in the bins but we're 
Bbm G# F#       F#m 
Talking serious 
F#               F#m 
While the colors bleed 
F#               F#m 
While the colors bleed 
F#                   C# 
While the colors bleed 

C# 
You know the full weight of 
G#                 F#  F#m 
Every wager you've lost 
C# 
I know for certain that 
Bbm                  F#  F#m 
Certainty comes at a cost 
    Bbm                  F# 
But I get afraid of what I can' t define 
     C# 
So I tally affections 
     Bbm         G#            F#  F#m 
Like nickels and dimes in your palm 
                     C# 
Like your palm in my palm 

verse 3 
    F# 
And my parents met in a 
C#         G# 
Laundromat parking lot 
F# 
I almost tell you but 
C#           G# 
Then I think not to 
F# 
We focus on pulling our 
C#               G# 
Lights from our darknesses 
F# 
We separate even though 
G# 
We've got sparks 
Bbm              G# 
We separate even though 
      F#  F#m 
We've got sparks

While the colors bleed
