[Verse]
B              F#             G#m
  You'll never hear this song
                     F#               B  F#  G#m  F#
You'll never see the movie in my head
          B       F#              G#m    F#
But you infest my sleep, and your figure creeps
           E         F#            G#m  F#/A#
Through my walls and hums above my bed
  B         F#   G#m                   F#        B
I know your name, and that you're photogenic and tall
         F#              G#m   F#
But I've never heard you talk
            B         F#
And there's something about you
G#m           F#
That stabs me right through

[Pre-Chorus Interlude]

E  F# G#m F#/A#

[Chorus]
         E G#m     F#
It isn't right for me to paint your picture
      E G#m        F#
Every night, but I do (I can't find sleep)
       E        G#m                            F#        C#m
And it feels so wrong (I breathe too deep), to sing this song (into the sky)
    E                           G#m             F#
But maybe (as I walk and sing), somehow, you'll hear me (you'll hear a song)
         B
And hum along
F#          G#m  F#           E   F# G#m F#/A#
You'll hum along, you'll hum along

[Verse]
         B             F#            C#m     F#
And I've only seen you once, at your graduation
   B         F#                C#m     F#
No cinematic glow or soft rock soundtrack
      B           F#       G#m  F#     E
And I watched you move and breathe and cry
       F#      G#m   F#/A#
And it felt so wrong

[Chorus]
         E G#m     F#
It isn't right for me to paint your picture
      E G#m        F#
Every night, but I do (I can't find sleep)
       E        G#m                            F#        C#m
And it feels so wrong (I breathe too deep), to sing this song (into the sky)
    E                           G#m             F#
But maybe (as I walk and sing), somehow, you'll hear me (you'll hear a song)
         B
And hum along

[Bridge]
               F#           G#m
Maybe you'd be kidnapped by pirates
               F#                E
And they would take you to their hideout
   F#            G#m
As pirates often do
        F#/A#           B
But I'd find the secret map
            F#        G#m
And I would vigilante-bushwhack
            F#           E
Through the jungles of Peru

        G#m              F#
Just to save you and I'd take you north to Mexico
                E                 G#m          F#
Where you would tell me your life story on the steps of a Mayan temple
              E         G#m               F#                                  E
Where we'd camp singing nonsense songs in 12 bars to the jaguars, until you'd sense me
             G#m                  F#                          E
Your eyes convincing, and I would kiss you like a hero in the half-light
      G#m                  F#                                 C#m           E
Dryer sheets and peach shampoo, the smell of palm leaves, I'd sleep against you
          G#m                   F#                           E
Until the natives found us, but they would crown us king and queen
             G#m                   F#                 C#m          E
And we could stay there, spend our days there, eating guava by the sea
            G#m             F#
And I could understand your views and you could fall in love with me

[Outro]

              E           G#m           F#
And while the silly human race talks to droids in outer-space
C#m     E       G#m              F#
We grow old and laugh about this song
      E                G#m            F#                C#m                 E
And between the jungle and the stars, you sing nonsense songs in 12 bars to me
    G#m   F#              B
And in my sleep I hum along

             F#m            G#m
You'll never hear this song
                     F#
You'll never see the movie in my head
