Acrid

[Intro]
A
 
[Verse 1]
A                              Amaj7    F#m
Acrid, the smell of burning rubber is a daily feature
D                             A
When I throw myself into reverse
A                      Amaj7          F#m
Check out of my surroundings, backin' up so blindly
D
My back to the universe
Bm              E7
Like a ship out of commission
Bm            E7
Like an arrow always missing
    D
I'm always missing
 
A
 
[Verse 2]
A                Amaj7   F#m
I'm trying to lie like a pro and I know
D                        A
It looks easy from the outside
A                            Amaj7   F#m
But it's hard to hold your brow just so, enough to show
     D                         Bm
I've got other places to go tonight
Bm            E7
Like a record slowly twisting
Bm            E7
Like an arrow always missing
    D
I'm always whistling by
 
 
 
[Chorus]
         A         G    D
But it's you, it's you
                A  G  D
I wanna run into you
 
I wanna run into
Bm                    E7
Like the wind blowing in through your cold room
Bm              D              F#m
I will get the door on the way through
    E7  Bm
Ooh-ooh
 
 
 
[Verse 3]
A                          Amaj F#m
Tragic, the messages I send, my mind post-midnight
D                         A
Are showing seen but no reply
A                      Amaj7 F#m
So I mash the keys a million times for a million years and
D                            Bm
Maybe by chance, I'll say it right
Bm                 E7
Closing in on your middle distance
Bm                   E7
Filling quivers with ammunition
        D
But I'm always missing
 
 
 
[Chorus]
A    G   D
You, you (You)
              A  G   D
I wanna run into you (You)
 
I wanna run into
Bm                     E7
Like the light burning bright in your hard heart
Bm             D               F#m
I won't make a sound when I go dark
    E7  Bm
Ooh-ooh
 
 
 
[Bridge]
C#m            Bm
Can you see me through?
C#m            Bm
Do you hear me scratching at the outlines of you?
D C#m       Bm
I feel your heartbeat from a mile away
Bm
(Like it knows what I'm trying to say)
D
What I'm trying to say (I'm trying to say)
A
Trying to say (I'm trying to say)
 
A
 
[Outro]
     A   (G/A)   D
It's you, you
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you, you (You)
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)
A  G    D
   You (You)
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)
              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)
 
A
