The National - Grease In Your Hair

[Intro]
Em D4 Em D4
Em D4 Em D4

[Verse 1]
Em
This machine’s a backwards thinker
D4
That looks for you until its neck hurts
Em
Not so hard to be a person
D4
If you’ve got something you can reference

[Refrain]
G D
Grease in your hair, fingernail polish
G D
Water balloon eyes totally honest

[Verse 2]
Em
I’ve worked up a sincere speech
D4
I just don’t know how I’m gonna say it
Em
The second I stand up, I freeze
D4
My only move here is to fail

[Pre-Chorus]
G D4
Don’t splash apart, everything changes
G D4
All jumbled up, wide-open spaces
G D4
Grease in your hair, fingernail polish
G D4
Water balloon eyes totally honest

[Chorus]
G D4
Down we go on thе grass, magnets make machines go crazy
G D4
I usеd to know you well, you give me such a future feeling
G D4
We’re in the middle of some kind of cosmic rearrangement
G D4
You were so funny then and I kept thinking I would catch it

[Bridge]
Em
Stay in one state
D
Nothing is stable
Em
Whip on a cape
D
Step on a cable
Em
I have no more feeling for it
D
I have no more frame of mind
Em
I have no more feeling for it
D
I have no more frame of mind

[Pre-Chorus]
G D4
Grease in your hair, fingernail polish
G D4
Water balloon eyes totally honest
G D4
Don’t splash apart, everything changes
G D4
All jumbled up, wide-open spaces

[Chorus]
G D4
Down we go on thе grass, magnets make machines go crazy
G D4
I usеd to know you well, you give me such a future feeling
G D4
We’re in the middle of some kind of cosmic rearrangement
G D4
You were so funny then and I kept thinking I would catch it

[Post-Chorus]
G D4
I kept thinking I would catch it
G D4
I kept thinking I would catch it
G D4
I kept thinking I would catch it

[Outro]
