Science vs. Romance

By Rilo Kiley

Key of D

[Intro]
D B7 Em A7 (x8)

[Verse]
D          B7   Em           A7         D
I used to think if I could realize I'd die
            B7  Em      A7
then I would be a lot nicer
D         B7  Em      A7
Used to believe in a lot more
D          B7  Em          A7
Now I just see straight ahead

D             B7  Em            A7
That's not to say I don't have good times
D          B7
But as for my days
Em             A7
I spend them waiting

D   B7

[Pre-Chorus]
G                    F#
Crash sites keep me up at night
Bm                   Em
Impact division it splits in two
F#       Bm         G   Gm
Directly underneath you

[Verse]
D          B7          Em
As for those things (as for those things)
              A7             D
that act as markers in your life
         B7          Em
But in between (but in between)
             A7
you can't remember

D          B7               Em
And so it seems (and so it seems)
                  A7          D
that you've grown up and over me
           B7            Em
and these silly things (these silly things)
            A7
I like to dwell on

D   B7

[Pre-Chorus]
G                  F#
Test sites keep me up at night
Bm
Chainlink and meters
   Em
I talk to you
      F#
It's cold out there
          Bm
but I'm telling you
    G      Gm
I'm lonely too

[Interlude]
D  B7  Em  A (x8)

[Chorus]
D               B7
Facts versus romance
Em          A7                D
You go and call yourself the boss
                B7  Em         A7
But we're not robots inside a grid
D               B7
Text versus romance
Em          A7             D
You go and add it all you want
                 B7  Em          A7
still we're not robots inside a grid

[Interlude]
D  B7  Em  A (x8)

[Outro]
A7        D
Zeros and ones
