The Magnetic Fields is a New York-based group fronted by Stephin Merritt. Recent albums released under the name &quot;The Magnetic Fields&quot; usually consist of synth-pop music in a 1980s style underlying clever lyrics which are often heavily ironic. While synth-pop often forms the foundation of their music, The Magnetic Fields' music borrows from many other styles, notably country, folk and indie pop.  The band was originally formed in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1990 by friends Merritt and (percussionist/pianist/vocalist) Claudia Gonson.

The Magnetic Fields est un groupe mené par le chanteur et auteur New-Yorkais Stephen Merritt. Les albums du groupe consistent en général à de la pop au synthé type années 1980 soulignant des textes brillants, souvent à propos de l'amour, qui sont ironiques et humoristiques. Bien que les albums The Wayward Bus et Distant Plastic Trees soient chantés par Susan Anway, Merritt reste le principal chanteur dans la plupart des cas.

Während die ersten beiden Alben von 1991 und 1992, &quot;The Wayward Bus&quot; und &quot;Distant Plastic Trees&quot; (seit 1995 auf einer Kompilation zusammengefügt), von Susan Anway gesungen werden, singt bei allen weiteren Aufnahmen Stephin Merritt selbst.

I don't [F]have to love you [C]now if I don't [G]wish to
I won't [F]see you any[C]how if that's an [G]issue
Because I [F]am a gentle[G]man
Think of [C]me as just your [Am]fan
Who re[F]members every [G]dress you ever [Am]wore
Just the [F]bad comedi[G]an
Your new [C]boyfriend's better [Am]than 

'Cos [F]I don't really [G]love you any[C]more 

There'll be [F]someday when your [C]eyes do not en[G]thrall me
I'll be [F]numb I [C]realize you'll never [G]call me


'Cos I've [F]read your horo[G]scope

I Don't Really Love You Anymore

      C
I was born, I hate this part,
              E
being someone new,
      F                          C           G:
being torn, seeing someone who died as you grew.
         F                   C
Growing older is killing a child
                  G           D
who laughed and smiled at anything,
          F                        C
growing colder and less and less wild
                  G
and learning to sing.

      C
I was young, then not so young:
             E
scary either way.
         F                         C         G
One more rung down that black ladder every day.

            F                 C
One more floor down the elevator
          G        D
to oblivion what fun,
        F                  G
but the singularly awful one
         F     A
is being born.

I Was Born

C:               B             Em
It was infinitely late at night.
    Am                        B
The stars are still out there,
            Am          B
but they're all out of light.
      Em            B  C            B
Don't worry about me,  I'll be all right,
          C         B         Em
it's just infinitely late at night.

     Am
It's still getting later and later and later.
  Em                             D
I feel like I'm in a falling elevator.

    B
I'd kill for a drink, but I can't find the waiter.
  C                        B
I really believe he's gone home.
   C                      B
Oh god, I wish I could go home,
         C         B         Em
but it's infinitely late at night.

Is this a blackout or am I losing my sight?
It should have been noon now, the sun should be bright,
but it's infinitely...

The hour on the bar clock, it isn't finite,
it's all black and white without the white.
It's just infinitely late at night.

pretend you don't exist,

I could listen to all my friends

I could dress in black and read Camus

smoke clove cigarettes and drink vermouth

You mean it's all been meaningless?

              E
Every whisper and caress?

F#                     B 
Yes yes yes it was totally meaningless

Meaningless 
like when two fireflies fluoresce 
Just like everything I guess 
it was utterly meaningless 
Even less 
a little glimpse of nothingness 
sucking meaning from the rest of this mess 
Yes yes yes it was thoroughly meaningless

E                               F# 
  and if some dim bulb should say

                          B 
we were in love in some way

                            E 
kick all his teeth in for me

             F#               E                F# 
and if you feel like keeping on kicking feel free

Meaningless 
Who dare to say it wasn't meaningless 
Shout from the rooftops and address the press 
Ha ha ha it was totally meaningless

B 
Meaningless

                    G#m 
Meaning less than a game of chess

                               E 
Just like your mother said and mother knows best

                           F# 
I knew it all the time but now I confess

E         F#                   B 
Yes yes yes how deliciously meaningless

          F#                  E 
Yes yes yes effervescently meaningless

          F#                      B 
Yes yes yes it was beautifully meaningless

          F#                     E 
Yes yes yes it was profoundly meaningless 
Yes yes yes definitively meaningless 
Yes yes yes comprehensively meaningless 
Yes yes yes magnificently meaningless 
Yes yes yes how incredibly meaningless 
Yes yes yes unprecedentedly meaningless 
Yes yes yes how mind-blowingly meaningless 
Yes yes yes unbelievably meaningless 
Yes yes yes how infinitely meaningless

I Think I Need A New Heart

G          C          D/F#     G
  The book of love is long and boring
G        C             D/F#      G    
  No one can lift the damn thing 
G           C             D/F#      G
  It's full of charts and facts and figures
G       C              D/F#   G
  And instructions for dancing but

G C D/F# G
I...
G       C           D/F#    G
  I love it when you read to me and
G C D/F# G
You...
G         C       D/F# G
  You can read me anything

G          C          D/F#     G
The book of love has music in it
G          C          D/F#     G
In fact that's where music comes from
G          C          D/F#     G
Some of it is just transcendental
G          C          D/F#     G
Some of it is just really dumb but

G C D/F# G
I...
G       C               D/F#        G
I love it when you sing to me and
G C D/F# G
You...
G       C           D/F#        G
You can sing me anything

G          C          D/F#     G
The book of love is long and boring
G          C          D/F#     G
And written very long ago
G          C          D/F#     G
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
G          C          D/F#     G
And things we're all too young to know but

(G C D/F# G
I...
G           C             D/F#        G
I love it when you give me things and
G C D/F# G
You...
G           C             D/F#      G
You ought to give me wedding rings) x2

Intro/Verse: F C Bb

F          C     Bb
Dance with me my old friend
F    C         Bb
once before we go
F     C             Bb
Let's pretend this song won't end

And we never have to go home

          Gm                    C
And we'll dance among the chandeliers

F                                 Bb
  And nothing matters when we're dancing
C                             F
  In tat or tatters you're entrancing
F                      Bb
  Be we in Paris or in Lansing

  Nothing matters when we're dancing

       F     C         Bb
You've never been more beautiful
     F         C        Bb
Your eyes like two full moons
   F       C          Bb
As here in this poor old dance hall
  F       C        Bb
Among the dreadful tunes

         Gm                  C
The awful songs we don't even hear

F                                 Bb
  And nothing matters when we're dancing
C                             F
  In tat or tatters you're entrancing
F                      Bb
  Be we in Paris or in Lansing
C                            F
  Nothing matters when we're dancing

Bb        Eb            F (flair to Gm)
I'm never going back to Jackson

Gm         Eb             F (flair to Bb)
I couldn't bear to show my face

Bb        Eb               F (flair to Gm)
I nearly killed you with my drinking

Lonely Highway

The Charm of the Highway Strip

Em        C      D                 Em       C    D
I know the rain is not profound, and autumn's not symbolic
Em                C        D
And the wind does not make lonesome sounds
Em               D
Yes, I know it's meaningless
C                D
Yes, I know it's meaningless
     G       C       D
But let's go out and frolic

            G          C           D
Cause the sun and the sea and the sky
          G      C        D
They will never make you cry
            G           C        D
You can love them and they don't die
G           C   Em
They don't just die

You can wait for Jesus all your life, he's coming any day now
Any day now for two thousand years
Yes I know, it's trivial
Yes, I know I'm shallow
But let's go out and play now

Cause the sun and the sea and the sky
They will never make you cry
You can love them and they don't die
They don't just die

Moons     in        June      I've given up on that stuff  
Arms have charms but I've no hope of falling in love  

         Ab            Eb         Bb        Cm
(C): The rest of life pales in significance  

    Ab          Eb       Bb            Eb
I'm looking for somebody with whom to dance  
With whom to dance?  With whom to dance?  
I'm looking for somebody with whom to dance.
  
Rings and strings  What use have I for these things?  
Bells and carousels  I'd just be fooling myself.  (C)

    Ab                 Eb      
And you  You look like heaven  

   Bb                       F:
An angel who stepped from a dream
777 times lovelier than anything I've ever seen.  (C)

With Whom To Dance

Get Lost

B, E, F#, G#m, E, F#, B

B               E         F#
 I want to be a playboy's bunny.
G#m                      E       F#
   I'd do whatever they asked me to.
B                     E       F# 
 I'd meet people with lots of money,
G#m                            E  F#   B    E
   and they would love me like I loved you.

I want to be a topless waitress.
I want my mother to shed one tear.
I'd throw away this old sedate dress,
slip into something a tad more sheer.

E                B        F#
 I want to be an artist's model,
E                 B   F#
 an odalisque, au naturel.
B                    E        F#
 I should be good at spin-the-bottle
G#m                               E    F#  B    E
   while I've still got something left to sell.

I want to be a cobra dancer,
with Little Willy between my thighs.
I may not find a cure for cancer,
but I'll meet plenty of single guys.

I want to be a brothel worker.
I've always been treated like one.
If I could be a back-street lurker,
I'd make more money and have more fun.

I want to be a dominatrix,
which isn't like me, but I can dream
learn S, and M, and all those gay tricks,
and men will pay me to make them scream.

I want to be a porno starlet.
(For that I'll wait till Mama's dead.)
I'll see my name in lights of scarlet
and get to spend every day in bed.

I want to be a tattooed lady,
dedicated -- as I am -- to art.
Characters bold, complex, and shady
will write my memoirs across my heart.

C
De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

Por el mundo especial que doy

No hay de que agradecer, de nada (de nada)

De nada hablaré, que ya me voy
          F            C
Te toca a ti decir de nada (de nada)
       E7             Am
Pues quiero esa barca ya

Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)
       E7               Am
Pues Maui nada sabe de nadar

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
