[Verse 1: Justin Vernon] To tell the truth darling I'd have to lead a coup Past the platitudes, right past the dotted rules I paid attention, I paid my dues Now that I know a thing or two I say thank you [Chorus: Ilsey & Aaron Dessner] Would you stare eyes open if I ever came 'round with the golden gun? Would you ever light up with somebody like me? (Looked like my son, he looked like a sun) Would you stare eyes open if I ever came round with the golden gun? (On my back, felt like it) Would you ever lay down with somebody like me? (On my back, felt like it) [Verse 2: Justin Vernon] It really wasn't a fall It was nothing at all All that they came in proving Well they sure was zooming I have to cast up, a big wet net through Now that I ask after you, I've gotta pass through now [Chorus: Ilsey & Justin Vernon] Would you stare eyes open if I ever came 'round with the golden gun? Would you ever light up with somebody? (To tell the truth) Would you come right over with the crown royal if I said run, run, run (I'd have to lead a coup, past the platitudes) Would you ever lay down with somebody like me? (Right past the dotted rules) Would you stare eyes open if I ever came 'round with the golden gun? (I paid attention, I paid my dues, I gotta ask you) Would you ever light up with somebody like me? (Do you say thank you?) [Outro: Aaron Dessner & Justin Vernon] Looked like my son (I say thank you) He looked like a sun (I say thank you, I say thank you) On my back (I say thank you, I say thank you) Felt like it (I say thank you, I say thank you) Looked like my son (I say thank you, I say thank you) He looked like a sun (I say thank you, I say thank you) On my back (I say thank you, I say thank you) Felt like it (I say thank you, I say thank you) On my back (I say thank you) Felt like it (I say thank you, I say thank you) On my back (I say thank you, I say thank you) Felt like it (I say thank you)
