Verse: 
Gm, Gm (moved up to 5th), Em, C, G, Am, Em, C 3x 
Stolen Aphrodite, beautiful and mighty 
Act like you can find me tucked beneath a vine leaf 
Try to keep my head down, 
Try to keep my mouth shut 

D, Em, C 
You do not exist; you are a product of my loneliness 

G, Am, Em, C 2x 

Verse 2: 
Gm, Gm (moved to 5th), Em, C, G, Am, Em, C 2x 
Never let you in, I'll never let you find me 
Butcher what you do have, put your past behind me 

D, Em 
I am not afraid and will not buckle under ignorance 
D, Em 
And you could find a purpose while I fumbled for deliverance 
D, Em, C 
I'm happy but I wouldn't put it past our new intelligence 

G, Am, Em, C 4x 

G (change rhythm) 8x 

(short strums) 
G, C, G, Am, C, G 5x 
So we swam to the bottom of the sea 
Found faith and a little bit of sanity 
Oh some peace and quiet may be what I need 
It'll be a lot better if you're honest with me 

(The way I think that I should get away sometimes the 
Way I wish that you would try and compromise) 

Cause I'm sick of saying where I don't belong 
If you just don't talk than you can't be wrong 
So you sit there smug with the stereo on 
Typing, yes, yes, never to your favorite song 

(The way I think that I should get away sometimes the 
Way I wish that you would try and compromise) 

Oh you can't find love where you thought you would 
Every single lead you had is turning up no good 

G, C, G, Am (drag out Am) 
I can change my mind if you think you could 
I would move my belongings if you thought I should 

G, C, G, D 4x 

(keyboard) 
And every single time I think I'll keep my cool 
I catch my other body making eyes at you 
And instincts are deceiving, do you trust me to run away 
Run away 
Run away 

Because you were never anything I thought I'd want 
I've been trying for a while and this thing I got 
Left me rambling and stumbling over what I say 
And I say, and I say, and I say 

Em, C, G 
Run away, run away, run away 

G, (ring finger moved up to 4th), Em, C 4x 
G, Am, Em, C 4x 

G, Am, Em, C 4x 
Stolen Aphrodite, beautiful and mighty 
Act like you can find me tucked beneath a vine leaf 

D, Em 2x 
This was never anything I wanted you to suffer for 
Despite how much I love my home 
I find I'm missing Baltimore 
D, Em, C 
Tied and gagged and bound to soil 
I will taste forever more 

G, Am, Em, C 4x
