Lyrics: (chord positions as accurate as possible, may not be 100% good)
Strophe 1: Riff 1 in the version of your choice
[Em] Make our [Em]escape,[G] you're my [Bm]own papillon.[Em] [Em] [G] [Bm]
[Em] World turns too [Em]fast,[G] feel l[Bm]ove before it's [Em]gone.
[Em] It [G]kicks like a [Bm]sleep twitch!
etc.
My papillon, feel love when it's shone.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
Chorus: Riff 2
[C]Darl[C]ing,[C] just [G]don't put down your [C/D]guns yet[C/D].
[C/D]if there r[G]eally was a [C]God her[C]e,
[C]He would have [G]raised a hand by [C/D]now.[C/D] [C/D] [G]
C etc.
Now darling, you're born, get old and die here.
Well, that's quite enough for me.
We'll find our [G]own way home [C/D]somehow. [C/D]
C/D Em (Riff 1)
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
Strophe 2:
No sense of doubt or what you could achieve.
Well, I've found you out, I've seen the life you wish to leave,
But it kicks like a sleep twitch!
You will choke, choke on the air you try to breathe.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
Chorus:
Darling, now just don't put down your guns yet.
If there really was a God here,
He'd have raised a hand by now.
Darling, well, you're born, get old and die here.
Well that's quite enough for me, dear.
We'll find our own home somehow.
Riff 1 (repeat as much as you need to)
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
(Play riff 1 a final time, with our without 'it kicks like a sleep twitch', and end on Em)
