Text File
You are what you love - Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins.
tabbed by woodward.
Capo 2nd Fret
Intro - Bm, Em, A, D x2
Bm Em
This is no great illusion
A D
When I'm with you I'm looking for a ghost
Bm Em
Or invisible reasons
A D
To fall out of love and run screaming from our home
D
Because we live in a house of mirrors
G
We see our fears and everything
Em A
Our songs, faces, and second hand clothes
D
But more and more we're suffering
G
Not nobody, not a thousand beers
Em A
Will keep us from feeling so all alone
Em A
But you are what you love
D G
And not what loves you back
Em
That's why I'm here on your doorstep
A D G D
Pleading for you to take me back
Bm Em
The phone is a fine invention
A D
It allows me to talk endlessly to you
Bm Em
About nothing disguising my intentions
A D
Which I'm afraid, my friend, are wildly untrue
D
It's a sleight of hand, a white soul band
G
The heart attacks I'm convinced I have
Em A
Every morning upon waking
D
To you I'm a symbol or a monument
G
Your rite of passage to fufillment
Em A
But I'm not yours for the taking
Em A
But you are what you love
D G
And not what loves you back
Em A D G D
So i guess that's why you keep calling me back
Em, A, D, G, D
D
I'm fraudulent, a thief at best
G
A coward who paints a bullshit canvas
Em A
Things that will never happen to me
D
But at arms length, it's Tim who said
G
I'm good at it, I've mastered it
Em A
Avoiding, avoiding everything
Em A
But you are what you love tim
D G
And not what loves you back
Em
And I'm in love with illusions
A
So saw me in half
Em
I'm in love with tricks
A D G D
So pull another rabbit out of your hat
