Your Beauty Must Be Rubbing Off  Hawksley Workman

For the rhythm its somewhat of a reggae style. The timing for the changes aren't
exact here, this took a long time so I got lazy about making it perfect. Should
be enough to get it though... enjoy!
Intro: E
[E]Look at the buggers who are looting the crash site,
taking the ring off your sweet little finger
that [A]I gave you to, oh, when we got [E]married.
[E]You're under water, now you're back where you came from,
no stealing the beauty that would naturally flow from,
the [A]center of all that you are, all that you [E]are.
[C#m]And your beauty must be [G#m]rubbing off,
[A]your beauty must be [F#m]rubbing off on [B]me.
[E]If we had children, they'd be lovely and beautiful,
and possess a peace and a strength and a depth
in their [A]eyes and a soundness in heart,
even as they [E]cry... rawr.
and we as lovers bloom like lilies in midnight
to taste our bellies before god
we are witness to currents we cannot control, cannot control
[C#m]And your beauty must be [G#m]rubbing off,
[A]your beauty must be [F#m]rubbing off on m[C#m]e,
your beauty must be rubb[G#m]ing off,
[A]your beauty must be [F#m]rubbing off on [B]me.
[F#m]You tore the [B]faces that you [E]never had,
all that you [A]never passed,
to the [F#m]shivers you couldn't [B]shake,
the planes you [E]didn't make,
the bus that [A]didn't take off that night.
(repeat pattern)
In the window as you fight for the courage,
to cover up your nakedness,
for the neighbors gave such a sweet display
of nothingness, of everything,
Oh, I'll never mind the things I find,
the sweetest sunset for a Goddess tonight.
A G#m F#m E (x2)
Cacaphony.
Caca-phony.
[F#m] [A] [E]  
(return to verse chords)
And let me say you look lovely in all of this,
and let me say that the death that I fear,
could in part be the fear that I'd lose you,
Just as I've found you...rawr!
And your beauty must be rubbing off,
your beauty must be rubbing off on me,
your beauty must be rubbing off,
your beauty must be rubbing off on me.
[E]Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you.
Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you.
[F#m]Your beauty must be r[A]ubbing off... ow!
[E]Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you.
Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you.
[F#m]And your beauty must [A]be rubbing off..
