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

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