[Intro]
E C#m E C#m A B7 A B7
 
 
[Verse 1]
           E          C#m
Walkin' in figures of eight
E               C#m
 I hope I'm not too late
A             B7
 Figure eight clouds
A             A#    B7
 I'm workin' things out
E               C#m
 Clouds lookin' strange
E         C#m                     A
 Papercut fingers dancing on the strings
                         B7
If I could see you right now
A               A#  B7                           E
 I'd dance just for you when the nightlight goes out
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                       C#m
Would you dance for me too?
E                C#m
 I'm counting on you
A                A#                 B7
 The corner shop closes in under an hour
              A    A#
Let's buy too much booze and get drunk in the
E    C#m E C#m A B7 A B7 A A# A#
shower
 
 
[Chorus]
C#m         G#         A              B
Thinkin' in figures of eight and it's easy 'cause
  E                 C#m
I know what it adds up to
E                 C#m                    A                B
 Every day is the same but you gave me a brand new set of numbers
C#m         A         B
Life's in a different colour
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E                       C#m  E C#m
 Would you dance for me too?
A                     B7
 We'll make Peppa Pig plasters the coolest new trend
A                                  B7
 I never asked for my childhood to end
E C#m E C#m A B7 A B7
 
 
[Outro]
    G          C       C#                   C#m
I'm trapped in my tiny human brain and it's killing me
        G                C
But I'm fine, yeah I'm alright
     C#                        C#m
If I move my hands fast enough I won't die
     G         C       C#                   C#m
I'm trapped in my tiny human brain and it's killing me
        G              C
But I'm fine, yeah I'm alright
     C#                         C#m
If I move my hands fast enough I won't die
     C#                         C#m
If I move my hands fast enough I won't die

Weird... you have the key listed as Eb, but the song shows up as beginning in E in the chords... Transposing makes it D#,
