Intro
Am, C

AmI grabbed hold of her wrist and my hand closed from tip to tip
CI said “you’ve taken the diet too far, you have got to let it slip”
AmBut she’s not eating again, she’s not eating again,
Cshe’s not eating again, she’s not eating again.
AmI ask her to speak French and then I need her to translate,
CI get the feeling she makes the meaning more significant.
AmShe was always far too pretty for me to believe in a single
Cword she said, believe a word she said.
Am, C
AmAt fourteen her mother died in a routine operation,
Cfrom allergic reaction to a general anesthetic.
AmShe spent the rest of her teens experimenting with prescriptions,
Cin a futile attempt to know more than the doctors.
Am CShe said one day to leave her, sand up to her shoulders waiting for the tide
Amto drag her to the ocean, to another sea’s shore.
CThis thing hurts like hell,
Ambut what did you expect?
C
Am CAnd all you can hear is the sound of your own heart
Am CAnd all you can feel is your lungs flood and the blood course
Am CBut oh I can see five hundred years dead set ahead of me
AmFive hundred behind,
CA thousand years in perfect symmetry
Am, C
AmBest known left wrist right finger, through all the Southern States, on
Cevery video games machine they call her triple A.
AmThere were racists on the radio trying to give up smoking,
Cthe chat show host, he joked “you have to wait for the government program”.
AmYou talk about your politics, and I wonder if you could be one of them, but
Cyou could never kiss a Tory boy without wanting to cut off your tongue again.
AmA good place to look to the future is when you are sat at the sea, with the
Csalt up to your ankles and a view of the end of the pier, you may
Amlook down at your model’s feet and wish that you’d just float away, and the
Cweather here is overcast and the sea is the same shade of grey, so the
Amlandscape before you looks just like the edge of the world, but to the
Cleft side and the right side, either way is a crazy golf course.
Am CThe sea is a good place to think of the future.
Am CAnd all you can hear is the sound of your own heart
Am CAnd all you can feel is your lungs flood and the blood course
Am CBut oh I can see five hundred years dead set ahead of me
AmFive hundred behind,
CA thousand years in perfect symmetry
AmA thousand years no getting rid of me
CA thousand years in perfect symmetry.
Am, C until end. Its not perfect, but for acoustic cover its good.
