D
I hate these flaming curtains
A
They're not the color of your hair
G
I hate these striplights
D
They're not so undoing as your stare
D
I hate the buttons on your shirt
G
When all I want to do is tear
G
I hate this bloody big bed of mine
A
When you're not here
D D/C# Bm G
Well I finally found someone to turn me upside down
D F#m A
And nail my feet up where my head should be
D D/C# Bm G
If they had a King of Fools then I could wear that crown
D
And you can all die laughing
F#m D
Cos I'll wear it proudly

D
Well you seem to be shivering dear
A
And the room is awfully warm
G
In the white and scarlet billows
D
That subside beyond the storm
D
You have this expression dear
G
No words could take its place
G
And I wear it like a badge
A
That you put all over my face
[Chorus]
A
I'll wear it proudly
G D
Through the dives and the dancehalls
A
If you'll wear it proudly
G D
Through the snakepits and catcalls
A G
Like a fifteen year old kid
D Bm
Wears a vampire kiss
G
If you don't know what is wrong with me
A
Then you don't know what you've missed
D
We are arms and legs
A
Wrapped round more than my memory tonight
G
When the bell rang out
D
And the air around turned blue from fright
D
But in shameless moments
G
You made more of me than just a mess
G
And a handful of eagerness
A
Says "What do you suggest?"
D D/C# Bm G
Well I finally found someone to turn me upside down
D F#m A
And nail my feet up where my head should be
D D/C# Bm G
If they had a King of Fools then I could wear that crown
D
And you can all die laughing
F#m D
Cos I'll wear it proudly
