Regina Spektor – The Calculation chords

(listen to the song for rhythm, or just play it the way you want/like/can)


Intro: C G x2

           CYou went into the kitchen cupboard
Got yourself another hour
        FAnd you gave
              AmHalf of it to me
             CWe sat there looking at the faces
Of these strangers in the pages
F                            Am'Til we knew 'em mathematically

                 DmThey were in our minds
      FUntil forever
              DmBut we didn't mind
               GWe didn't know better

      CSo we made our own computer out of macaroni pieces
        F                                  AmAnd it did our thinking while we lived our lives
   CIt counted up our feelings
And divided them up even
       F                               AmAnd it called that calculation perfect love

            Dm                 FDidn't even know that love was bigger
            DmDidn't even know
              GThat love was so, so
Hey Hey Hey

         FHey this fire it's burnin'
C          FBurnin' us up
         FHey this fire it's burnin'
CBurnin' us..
DmUp

A#Ohhhhh
FOhh Ohh Ohh

      CSo we made the hard decision
And we each made an incision
         FPast our muscles and our bones
        AmSaw our hearts were little stones
           CPulled 'em out they weren't beating

And we weren't even bleeding
      F                             AmAs we lay 'em on the granite counter top

            DmWe beat 'em up
             FAgainst each other
            DmWe beat 'em up
             FAgainst each other
              DmWe struck 'em hard
             FAgainst each other
              DmWe struck 'em so hard
                   CSo hard until they sparked

         FHey this fire it's burnin'
C          FBurnin' us up
         FHey this fire it's burnin'
C          FBurnin' us up
         FHey this fire it's burnin'
CBurnin' us..
DmUp
