[Verse 1]
G
Writings to slow
D
Talking to fast
Em
Lately real low
Lies at last
G
Oh dear, my dear
D
Get in all your licks
Em
I'll string my words
Something will stick
[Chorus]
E
Sticky little words
D G
They heal and they hurt
Em
They never really work
They feed the birds
E D
That's it, that's that
G
They might make you laugh
Em
They might make you mad
But they won't bring you back
E
But they won't bring you back
[Verse 2]
G
Oh dear, my dear
D
There's so much to say
Em
If you plug your lil' ears
I'll fade away
G
Sorry's too slow
D
To stop this crash
Em
And leave me alone
Was just too fast
[Chorus]
E
Sticky little words
D G
They heal and they hurt
Em
They never really work
They feed the birds
E D
That's it, that's that
G
They might make you laugh
Em
They might make you mad
But they won't bring you back
E
But they won't bring you back
