Intro:
E
G#


 E
Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
      G#
You were practicing a magic trick
     E
And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed
    G#
On the last of your pick and mix

                 F
Said you’re mistaken if you're thinking that I haven't been caught
E
cold before
    G#
As you bit into your strawberry lace
              E
And then a flip in your attention in the form of a gobstopper
        G#
Is all you had left and it was going to waste

Am
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Crying lightning
And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons

Am (Strum Once)
           F
The next time that I caught my own reflection
    E
It was on it's way to meet you
G#
Thinking of excuses to postpone
           F
You never look like yourself from the side
     E
But your profile could not hide
       G#
The fact you knew I was approaching your throne

      Am
With folded arms you occupied the bench like toothache
G#
Stood and puffed your chest out like you never lost a war
       E
And though I tried so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
   G#
There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw

    Dm
And your past-times, consisted of the strange
   Am
And twisted and deranged
   F
And I hate that little game you had called
    Dm
Crying lightning
          F
And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
  Dm
Uninviting
  Am
But not half as impossible as everyone assumes
    Dm
You are crying lightning

Am

       Dm
Oh you were reading a book about some idiot
   E
And telling me about another

   Dm
I was so severely underwhelmed
       E
I thought I might never recover

        Am
Straighten the rudder girl
   Dm
And sail me up stairs
  F
And go and find somebody
   E
Who cares

    Dm
Well we might not be the perfect partners
    E
But tonight we make a pair

Am
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
   Am
And twisted and deranged
    F
And I hate that little game you had called


    Am
Crying lightning
    F
Crying lightning
    Am
Crying lightning
    Am
Crying lightning


  Dm
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
   Am
And twisted and deranged
    F
And I hate that little game you had called
      Dm
