[Intro]
Am Am F F Am Am E E
Am Am G G C C E E

[Verse 1]
Am Am F F Am Am E E
Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
Am Am G G C C E E
You were practicing a magic trick
Am Am F F Am Am E E
And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed
Am Am G G C C E E
On the last of your pick and mix

Am Am F F
Said you’re mistaken if you're thinking that I haven't been caught
Am Am E E
cold before
Am Am G G C C E E
As you bit into your strawberry lace
Am Am F F Am Am E E
And then a flip in your attention in the form of a gobstopper
Am Am G G C C E E
Is all you had left and it was going to waste

[Chorus]
Am Am
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Crying lightning
And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons

Am Am (Strum Once)

[Verse 2]
Am Am F F
The next time that I caught my own reflection
Am Am E E
It was on it's way to meet you
Am Am G G C C E E
Thinking of excuses to postpone
Am Am F F
You never look like yourself from the side
Am Am E E
But your profile could not hide
Am Am G G C C E E
The fact you knew I was approaching your throne

Am Am F F Am Am
With folded arms you occupied the bench like toothache
E E Am Am G G C C E E
Stood and puffed your chest out like you never lost a war
Am Am F F Am Am E E
And though I tried so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
Am Am G G C C G# G#
There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw

[Chorus]
F F Dm Dm
And your past-times, consisted of the strange
Am Am
And twisted and deranged
Am Am F F
And I hate that little game you had called
Dm Dm
Crying lightning
Am Am F F
And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
Dm Dm
Uninviting
Am Am
But not half as impossible as everyone assumes
F F Dm Dm
You are crying lightning

[Instrumental]
Am Am

[Bridge]
Am Am Dm Dm
Oh you were reading a book about some idiot
F F E E
And telling me about another

Am Am Dm Dm
I was so severely underwhelmed
F F E E
I thought I might never recover

Am Am
Straighten the rudder girl
Dm Dm
And sail me up stairs
F F
And go and find somebody
E E
Who cares

Am Am Dm Dm
Well we might not be the perfect partners
F F E E
But tonight we make a pair

Am Am Am Am
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
Am Am
And twisted and deranged
Am Am F F
And I hate that little game you had called

[Interlude]
Dm Dm Am Am
Crying lightning
Am Am F F
Crying lightning
Dm Dm Am Am
Crying lightning
Am Am
Crying lightning

[Chorus]
F F Dm Dm
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
Am Am
And twisted and deranged
Am Am F F
And I hate that little game you had called
Dm Dm
Cryi--------ng
