A
Swimming fast
               D                          F#m    D
Hone in on the buzz in ways you could not
A                D
 I like you real silver-like
   F#m
Oh see them fast, take off at last
           D
and we get better

B      E                         D#m
            I wanna breathe in a sunlight beam
G#m                       F#
        I wanna be with a girl like she

    A
I’m swimming fast (swimming fast enough)
               D
Hone in on the buzz in ways you could not
F#m             D
Know my own electricity
                A
You did this to me
                  D
I want someone to carry me
   F#m
Oh Ill-advised, your desire
      D
Tulip bell


B         E
  And I’d rather be a satellite
        D#m                   C#m      F#
And I’m picking up the phone                   (x2)

Instrumental:
G#m    F#    E    F#    F#


G#m
  Remember when?
                F#                     E
It was then we sealed to unlock never again
                    F#
The way we might on movie night
Suspend disbelief
And this is much better
                   G#m
I can see you crying
                          F#
None of these remedies, I feel
                              E
Could make things matter that much
                   F#
It’s only right on movie night
Solemn summer

B         E
  And I’d rather be a satellite
        D#m                   C#m
And I’m picking up the phone
F#
Picking up the phone

B                 E
(stay up) And I’d rather be a satellite
        D#m                   C#m
And I’m picking up the phone
          F#
(You were always shy)

  A
Eleven past (eleven past of us)
               D
I love all the things that are wrong with you
F#m             D
Know my own electricity
                A
You did this to me
                D
I like you real silver-like
   F#m
Oh see them fast, take off at last
           D
And we get better

B         E
  And I’d rather be a satellite
        D#m                   C#m
And I’m picking up the phone
         F#
(and the sun would shine)
B                 E
(stay up) And I’d rather be a satellite
        D#m                   C#m
And I’m picking up the phone
F#
Picking up the phone

B               E
  My life is my own
           D#m     C#m      F#
And now I’m always home
B               E
  My life is my own
           D#m     C#m      F#
And now I’m always home

               B        E
That’s where I spend my time
          D#m              C#m      F#
What, you think I’m up all night?
               B        E
That’s where I spend my time
          D#m              C#m      F#
What, you think I’m up all night?
