Intro:
LA5   FA5   LA5   MI5   LA5   SOL5   DO5   LA5

LAm   FA   LAm   MI   LAm   FA/SOL   DO   MI

LAm          FA          LAm           MI7
 Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
         LAm          FA     DO    MI
You were practicing a magic trick
       LAm          FA           LAm        MI7
And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed
       LAm          FA       DO   MI
On the last of your pick and mix
                           LAm
Said your mistaken if your thinking 
       FA                  LAm        MI7
that I haven't been caught cold before
       LAm           FA          DO    MI
As you bit into your strawberry lace
                         LAm        
And then a flip in your attention 
       FA         LAm      MI7     
in the form of a gobstopper
                LAm             FA       DO    MI
Is all you have left and it was going to waste

LAm
 Your past-times, consisted of the strange

And twisted and deranged

And I love that little game you had called

Crying lightning

And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man 

on rainy afternoons...

                     LAm           FA
The next time that I caught my own reflection
       LAm            MI7
It was on it's way to meet you
LAm         FA          DO      MI
Thinking of excuses to postpone
                    LAm               FA
You never look like yourself from the side
         LAm             MI7
But your profile did not hide
             LAm         FA          DO        MI
The fact you knew I was approaching your throne
            LAm          FA                LAm      
With folded arms you occupy the bench like toothache
MI7                 LAm
Saw them, puff your chest out 
         FA           DO  MI
like you never lost a war
             LAm           FA        
And though I try so not to suffer 
      LAm            MI7
the indignity of a reaction
          LAm          FA               DO    MI
There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw

        FA              REm
And your past-times, consisted of the strange
    LAm
And twisted and deranged
                                     FA
And I hate that little game you had called
       REm
Crying lightning
                    LAm
And how you like to aggravate the icky man 

on rainy afternoons

FA      REm
   Uninviting
    LAm
But not half as impossible as everyone assumes
      FA       REm         LAm
You are crying lightning...

LAm
...Your past-times, consisted of the strange

And twisted and deranged

And I hate that little game you had called
FA        REm
  Crying lightning
LAm
  Crying lightning
FA        REm
  Crying lightning
LAm
  Crying lightning
    FA              REm
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
    LAm
And twisted and deranged
                                     FA
And I hate that little game you had called
      REm9
