E
    Why don't you ever wanna play
E/A
    I'm tired of this piece of string
B
    You sleep as much as I do now and you
A                      E-open
    Don't eat much of anything

E
    I don't know who you're talking to
E/A
    I made a search through every room
B
    But all I found was dust that moved
A                       E-open
    With shadows of the afternoon


[Chorus 1]

    E        
And listen
            A
About those bitter songs you sing
            F#m
They're not helping anything
           A        E
They won't make you strong

      PM------------------------|

E
    So we should open up the house
E/A
    Invite the tabby two doors down
B                             
    You could ask your sister if
A                         E-open
    She doesn't bring her basset hound

E
    Asked of things you shouldn't miss
E/A
    Tape hiss and the modern man
B
    Cold war and card catalogues
A                   E-open
    To come join us if they can

E
    For girly drinks and parlour games
E/A
    We'll pass around the easy lie
B
    Of absolutely no regrets
A                   E-open
    And later maybe you could try

E
    To let your losses dangle off
E/A
    The sharp edge of a century
B
    Talk about the weather or
A                   E-open
    How the weather used to be

         E                           
And I'll cater
             A
With all the birds that I can kill
          F#m                 
Let their tiny feathers fill
    A
Disappointment

E                      
Lie down
             A
And lick the sorrow from your skin
            F#m               
Scratch the terror and begin
     A            E       
To believe you're strong

E            F#m           B/G#             A
All you ever want to do is drink and watch TV
    A/C#               E                 A/A#
And frankly that thing doesn't really interest me
  E               F                 F#m              A
I swear I'm gonna bite you hard and taste your tinny blood
   A/C#               A/C            E                  A/A#              A
If you don't stop the self-defeating lies you've been repeating since the day you brought me home
              E     
I know you're strong


- Start quietly then build up -
