Verse 1
C
Princess cards she
Em
F
G
Am
sends me with her regards
Dm
Am
Oh, barroom eyes shine vacancy,
F
G
to see her you gotta look hard
C
Em
Wounded deep in battle,
F
G
Am
I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted
Dm
Am
To her Cheshire smile, I'll stand on file,
F
G
Em
she's all I ever wanted
G
F
G
Oh, but you let your blue walls get
C
Em
in the way of these facts
F
Honey, get your carpet
G
C
Em
baggers off my back
F
G
You wouldn't even give me time
C
Em
to cover my tracks
C
You said, here's your mirror
G
and your ball and jacks
C
G
But they're not what I came for,
C
G
and I'm sure you see that too

Verse 2
Am
Em
Dm
F
I came for you, for you, I came for you
G
Am
But you did not need my urgency
Em
Dm
F
I came for you, for you, I came for you
G
Am
But your life was one long emergency
F
C
And your cloud line urges me
F
C
G
And my electric surges free
Verse 3
C
Em
Oh, crawl into my ambulance,
F
G
Am
your pulse is getting weak
Dm
Am
Oh, reveal yourself all now to me, girl
F
While you've got the strength
G
to speak
C
'Cause they're waiting for you at
Em
F
G
Am
Bellevue with their oxygen masks
Dm
Am
But I could give it all to you now,
F
G
F
Em
if only you could ask
G
F
G
Oh, and don't call for your surgeon,
C
Em
even he says it's too late
F
G
It's not your lungs this time,
C
Em
it's your heart that holds your fate
F
G
Don't give me my money, honey,
C
Em
I don't want it back
C
You and your pony face
G
and your Union Jack
C
Well, take your local joker and
G
teach him how to act
C
I swear I was never that way,
G
C
even when I really cracked
G
Didn't you think I knew
Am
That you were born with the
Em
Dm
power of a locomotive
F
G
Am
Able to leap tall buildings
in a single bound?
Em
And your Chelsea suicide
Dm
F
with no apparent motive
G
Am
You could laugh and cry in a single sound
Oh, right
F
C
F
Verse 4
C
G
And your strength is devastating in
F
C
the face of all these odds
G
Remember how I kept you waiting when
F
G
it was my turn to be the God?
Verse 5
C
Em
You were not quite half so proud when
F
G
Am
I found you broken on the beach
Dm
Am
Remember how I poured salt on your
F
G
tongue and hung just out of reach
C
Em
And the band, they played the homecoming
F
G
Am
theme as I caressed your cheek
Dm
Yeah, that ragged, jagged melody,
Am
F
G
F
Em
she still clings to me like a leech
G
F
G
But that medal you wore on your
C
chest always got in the way
Em
F
G
Like a little girl with a trophy
C
Em
so soft to buy her way
C
We were both hitchhikers but you had
G
your ears tuned to the roar
C
G
Of some metal-tempered engine en gine on an alien,
distant shore
C
So you left to find a better reason
G
than the one we were living for
C
And it's not that nursery mouth
G
that I came back for
C
It's not the way you're stretched
G
out on the floor
C
'Cause I've broken all your windows and
G
I've rammed through all your doors
C
G
And who am I to ask you to lick my sores?
C
G
And you should know that's true
Verse 6
Am
Em
Dm
I came for you, for you, I came for you
G
Am
But you did not need my urgency
Em
Dm
F
I came for you, for you, I came for you
G
Am
But your life was one long emergency
F
C
And your cloud line urges me
F
And my electric surges free
C
Ooh
