Popular Mechanics for Lovers Lyrics
by Beulah
During the verses a second guitar just picks the chords, but the first
guitar strums them. I'm not entirely sure about the F#m at the end of
the chorus...I wasn't sure about any of the chords until I found a
live acoustic version from some Dutch radio station.
I know he knocks you off your feet
You're so bitter you think he's sweet
Well he's wrong for you I swear
Did you forget to read the script
There was never a role for him
It was always you and me, just me
Popular mechanics for broken hearts
Can help me now
I know you never felt romance
And we always lacked suspense
But I can edit those parts out
I never made you feel complete
I'm a faultline beneath your feet
I will never bring you down, so down
Just because he loves you too
He would never take a bullet for you
Don't believe a word he says
He would never cut his heart out for you
I heard he wrote you a song, well so what
Some guy wrote sixty-nine, and one just ain't enough
And there's no sense in trying
I know cause I've been
Trying all the time to find
Something that would make you mine
But all I ever find my love
Are clichs that don't rhyme
Solo (with verse chords -)B--10-12-9--9-10-9-7-3-5-3-1
(repeats the solo a couple times then switches, mnot fully acurate on the solo,
also when you do it add a slide to it.)
Just because he loves you too
He would never take a bullet for you
Don't believe a word he says
He would never cut his heart out for you
End on A
