by the Scissor Sisters
[E]When you're quiet, but your eyes
Are saying every[Am]thing I need to know
I want to burrow like a sparrow
Dodging a[C]lley cats and whiskers
Why [Bb]do we talk in whispers?
Is it [F]painful hearing voices ring
So [G]early in the morning?
[E]I've been waiting for the day
When I can throw aw[Am]ay these numbers
That line my dresser drawers and cupboards
Start me [C]over
Life seems s[Bb]o much slower
With your t[F]oothbrush by the mirror
Can I ma[G]ke it any clearer?
Chorus:
[C]And I just might s[G]ay it tonigh[F]t
[C]I just might sa[G]y it toni[F]ght
[C]I just might te[G]ll you toni[F]ght
That I love [C]you
And you should s[G]tay all my life[F]
[E]They'll tell you that you'll maybe make it
If you just cut your cl[Am]othes and change your hair
But I won't fuss and moan
'bout what you [C]wear
I feel so[Bb] much better
When I re[F]ad your dirty letters
Just wear your sw[G]eaters in the winter
[E]'Cause I wonuldn't want you to get cold
I hope that we're to[Am]gether when we're old
I would have sold all my possessions
Never t[C]ook piano lessons
But ba[Bb]by you're a grand
And I will l[F]earn to play the good notes
And t[G]une you up the best I can
