The Bm7 in the chorus is just a preference -- regular Bm is fine. Also watch for the B
Major in the bridge.
I would be remiss to not point out that Grimes has said this song is "written from the
perspective of Al Pacino in The Godfather Pt 2. Except he’s a vampire who can switch
gender and travel through space."
