Permanent Reminder Of A Temporary Feeling
 
[Intro]
E/B    B6
E/B    B6
 
[Verse 1]
Dmaj9                   Bmaj7
 She was no marine back from the Philippines
    Dmaj9                               Bmaj7
She was their pride and joy, their incarnation
    Dmaj9                         E
Her parents viewed the chief with shock and disbelief
D                 F#         B
 Looking for some other explanation
 
[Verse 2]
    Dmaj9                  Bmaj7
The Indian on her back was poised for an attack
             Dmaj9                    Bmaj7
She said, "A tattoo is a badge of validation."
        Dmaj9                             E
But the truth of the matter is far more revealing
       D                 F#              B
It's a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
 
[Chorus]
E                       F#
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
  E                              B
Amnesiac episodes that never go away
        F#              E                 B
It's no complex memento, it's no subtle revealing
       F#                E               B
Just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
 
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Dmaj9               Bmaj7
 Vegas in the rain, drunk on cheap champagne
         Dmaj9                                          Bmaj7
He hears out of tune synthesized chapel bells painfully ringing
Dmaj9                   E
 Where's his limo ride?  Who's this foreign bride?
D               F#                        B
 Is that really Elvis spinning around the ceiling?
 
[Chorus]
E                       F#
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
   E                                     B
Forgotten fabrications in the chapels of love
            F#                 E          B
What's this ring on his finger? Why is he kneeling?
              #                E               B
She's just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
 
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
E                     D
 Chromosomes and genes spawn these fateful scenes
   E                           D
Evolution can be mean, there's no dumb-ass vaccine
E                         G
 Blame your DNA, you're a victim of your fate
E                             B
 It's human nature to miscalculate
 
[Verse 4]
   Dmaj9                       Bmaj7
To make up for the fight, they go out for the night
Dmaj9                                               Bmaj7
Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll seem like the easiest answer
      Dmaj9                                         E
But a short nine months later, there's no way of concealing
     D                 F#               B
That permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
 
[Chorus]
E                       F#
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
  E                              B
Amnesiac episodes that never go away
        F#               E             B
It's no complex mementos, not subtle revealings
       F#                E               B
Just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
 
[Outro]
F#                E               B
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
F#                E               B
Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
C#   D6
