In (A major) Polaroids you were dressed
in women's (D major) clothes
Were you (A major) made ashamed,

Than when you (A major) turned away
When you (D major) slammed the door
When you stole the car

But me I'm a (A major) single cell
on a (D major) serpents tongue
There's a muddy field
where a garden (E major) was

My clothes are soaking wet
from your brothers (E major) tears

The sound of loneliness makes me happier (E major)
