[Intro]
A  E7  A  E7
 
 
[Verse 1]
E7           A7                E7
The electric heart shines for you
              A7                          E7
It's given up sparks, but that's nothing new
              A7                       E7
The electric heart spins its lightning web
             A7                    E7
The spider sparkle lights the way ahead
  A7
I eat the biscuits, a gift for her
A
I eat the fishes, they got no fur
 
 
[Verse 2]
         A7                  E7
The open road oh God's final town
                      A7               E7
I'll take a little sip from its high drip
                A7            E7
The earth hurts sky say your name
              A7             E7
The earth was dry until you came
         A7
A little baby begins to grow
A7
A happy belly begins to glow
 
 
[Verse 3]
             A                   E7
The electric sky combing in the snow
            A                  E7
He's always high he's a gentle soul
          A                      E7
My winter friends with Christmas legs
               A                 E7
And cold, cold beards and frozen heads
                 A
We keep them shiny
A
We keep them shone
                                   A7
Cause though they're tiny, they're valuable
 
 
[Verse 4]
             A                         E7
I've lost my nails, but that's nothing new
            A                      E7
And goddamn thumbs thumbs, goddamn you
                A                 E7
And if all else fails as all else do
                A                          E7
There's someone else for sure will take my place
               A                   E7
Now flung from dreams your voice reappears
              A                        E7
And it almost sings like you're almost here
                   A                        E7
Singing an ancient chant, spreads his dusty lens
               A         E7
And I'm coming in, in my head
         A              E7
Electric heart sang for us
 
 
[Outro]

        A
Shining love
        E7
Shining love
        A
Shining love
        E7
Shining love
        A
Shining love
