[Intro]
E Am E Am
G C/G G D (x2)


[Verse 1]
Em         Dsus2/F#  G
Weary one, come     clean
Am                                                G
Wouldn't it be better if you didn't have to sleep alone?
G
Well, all you gotta do is willingly surrender
     C
Everything that you wanted to be
Em          Dsus2/F#  G
Time passes quickly
Am
You can soon discover with the right routine
       G
Nearly everything's forgiven or forgotten
                  Em
And impending separation is all you can see

[Chorus]
           C             Cm                        G
That's not love, but the beast that looks like it
                      Em           Am
It'll really turn you into an island
                       D7  G                 E
Where the coconuts and sand   are rotten and quick
      Am          Cm          G
Where nothing can ever grow again

Em A Em A
G C G D

[Verse 2]
Em                           Dsus2/F# G
What do you mean, "It sounds iffy"?
Am
Filling up the kettle with T.N.T
        G
Feeling smaller and smaller and smaller every day
              Em
Until there's no one in the mirror to see

[Chorus]
           C             Cm                        G
That's not love, but the beast that looks like it
                      Em           Am
It'll really turn you into an island
                       D7  G                 E
Where the coconuts and sand   are rotten and quick
      Am          Cm         Bbmaj7
Where nothing can ever grow again

[Chorus]
           C             Cm                        G
That's not love, but the beast that looks like it
                      Em           Am
That really turned me into an island
                       D7  G                 E
Where the coconuts and sand   are rotten and quick
      Am         C                     G                  E
Where none of my signals could seem to make it through the milieu
Am                  D7   G                             E
   I created in the shade     when the sun called it a day
          Am7
But we'll need that sunshine
Cm                              G**
If we're gonna grow and swim away
