Intro 1
(D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 1
And the first (G major) one tore a picture
Of a dead and hanging man
Who was kissing foreign fishes
That flew right out from this hands
And when I put (D major) my arms around him
I felt the blushing blood run
through (B minor) my cheeks
And an eeriness (G major) surrounded when
his tongue began to speak
And he said...O (D major) h boy
you are so pretty
Enough to wrap tight in
rice-paper string. (B minor)
string.
And when (G major) I finally kissed him the
whole world began to ring
Lost like a bell (D major) that's tipping over
With two cracks along both sides (B minor)
And I knew (G major) the world was
over so I took a look outside
And watched the fires (D major) that were reaching
Up to the weather vane and
the tops (B minor) of trees
And (G major) the waiting scene and
the Sunday dream
They're (D major) all wait (G major) ing here

Interlude 1
for me
(D major) (B minor) (G major)
Verse 2
Deli markets (G major) with their flower stands
And pretty girls and the burning men
Hanging out (D major) on the hooks next
to the window displays
And I took out my tongue twice
removed (B minor) from my face
Across a (G major) bridge and across the mountains
(D major) (G major) Threw a nickel in a fountain
(D major) To save (G major) (D major) my soul from all
these troubled times
And all the drugs that I don't
have the guts to (B minor) take
To soothe my mind so
I'm (G major) always sober
Always aching, always heading towards
Mass suicide, occult figurines
And wasted gas-sta (D major) tion
attendants
attendants
Attending to their jobs (B minor)
And a nice (G major) drive in the country
Finds a nice cliff to drop off
Oh when this life (D major) just gets so grating
All the grittiness of life (B minor)
But don't take (G major) those pills your
boyfriend gave you
(D major) You're too (G major) wonderful to die (D major)
Interlude 2
(B minor) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (B minor) (G major)
Verse 3
And the last (G major) one tore a picture
From the pornographic page
When all the pleasure points attacking
All the looks of love were staged
And it's a lie (D major) that you've been given
That just hurts you every day (B minor)
So why should (G major) i lay here naked
When it's just too far away
From anything (D major) we could call loving
Any love worth living for
(B minor) So I'll sleep (G major) out in the gutter
You can sleep here on the floor
And when I (D major) wake up in the morning
I won't forget to lock the door
(B minor) Because with a (G major) match that's mean
and some gasoline
Outro 1
You won't see me anymore
(D major) (B minor) (D major) (G major)
