Verse 1:
She floats like a swan,
Grace on the water,
Lips like sugar,
Lips like sugar,
Just when you think you've caught her,
She glides across the water,
She calls for you tonight,
To share this moonlight,

Verse 2:
She knows what she knows,
I know what she's thinking,

Sugar kisses,
Just when you think she's yours,
She's flown to other shores,
To laugh at how you break,
To melt into this lake,

Note: Chords at this verse may sound funny because Chris' vocals change
at some point. Don't know what I mean? Check out the 3rd line.
But it should be okay because it is a running chords for verse.
For electric guitar, Jonny just do the same thing but he add some
spies in it.
Verse 3:
She'll be my mirror,
Reflect what I am,
A loser and a winner,
The King of Siam,
And my Siamese twin,
She knows what I'm thinking,
