[Intro]
N.C.
I think I take myself too serious, it's not that serious
Em
Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah
C                                                  Em
Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah
Bm6/G# C#7 Am6/F# B7 Em

[Verse 1]
Em
Alone in someone's bedroom, she firmly took my hand

The isolation ended, I began to understand
            C
In the ping-pong match of constant desire, I was never gonna get ahead
                                           Em
'Cause I was lookin' in the mirror

[Chorus 1]
Bm6/G#                   C#7
Now we've got that sympathy
          Am6/F#             B7
What I'm to you, you are to me
         Em
Let's go
(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah)

[Verse 2]
  Em
Judeo-Christianity, I'd never heard the words

Enemies for centuries, until there was a third
            C
In the ping-pong match of constant desire, I was never gonna get ahead
                                           Em
'Cause I was lookin' in the mirror

[Chorus 2]
Bm6/G#                    C#7
Now we've got that sympathy
          Am6/F#             B7
What I'm to you, you are to me
         Em
Let's go

[Verse 3]
  Em
Diego Garcia, surrounded by the waves

Lonely in the ocean, but in every other way
                      C
It was full of love
                                     Em
In the warmest fellow-feeling

[Chorus 3]
Bm6/G#                    C#7
Now we've got that sympathy
          Am6/F#            B7
What I'm to you, you are to me
         Em
Let's go
(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah)

[Verse 4]
    Em
I didn't have your sympathy, but I knew where to start

Explaining to you patiently that the one who broke my heart
                                C
Would have broken yours
                                               Em
And thrown the pieces in the river

[Chorus 4]
Bm6/G#                    C#7
Now we've got that sympathy
          Am6/F#             B7
What I'm to you, you are to me
         Em
Let's go

[Bridge]
Em
Sympa-
(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah)
C                                                  Em
Sympa-
(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah)
         Em
Let's go, let's go
(Sympa-)
C                    Em
Sympa-, let's go
Bm6/G# C#7 Am6/F# B7
Sympa-
Em
Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah

[Verse 5]
Em
Desperate for an enemy, but too afraid to kill

Use the pain of someone else and triumph for their will
                      C
And spill the blood
                           Em
Of the arrogant mosquitoes

[Chorus 5]
Bm6/G#                    C#7
Now we've got that sympathy
          Am6/F#            B7
What I'm to you, you are to me
         Em
Let's go
(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah)

(Ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah ah-ah, ah ah ah)
