View chords used in this chart
Capo 1st fret
Bb F Gm Eb
She used to get her kicks from a fall to the floor
Bb F
But now she's always wasted
Gm Eb
A total looker, but she's jaded
Bb F Gm Eb
The kind of shivering wreck that I adore
Bb F
I can't offer you a rescue
Gm Eb
But I can tell you what I'd do
Bb F
I'd tell my mother that I love her dearly
Gm Eb
And tell my father that I need him back again
Bb F
And if these words wont drop from your lips
Gm Eb
I will be your Freudian slip
Bb F
And flowers might wilt when we walk past
Gm Eb
And self-help might help when it makes us laugh
Gm F
Only finding questions in answers
Gm Eb
You and I are just walking disasters (3x)
Bb F Gm Eb
She only finds her love in a downtown store
Bb F
Consumption makes her stronger
Gm Eb
You're the sweetest anaconda
Bb F Gm Eb
The kind of lack of respect that I adore
Bb F
I cant offer you a rescue
Gm Eb
But when you've lost all that you have left to lose
Bb F
I'd tell my mother that I love her dearly
Gm Eb
And tell my father that I need him back again
Bb F
And if these words wont drop from your lips
Gm Eb
I will be your Freudian slip
Bb F Gm Eb
As sharp as a knife and as blunt as a wheel
Bb F Gm Eb
You be my calm I'll be your pneumatic drill
Bb F Gm Eb
And what we'll never want, we'll always need
Gm F Gm
Right now we need some pop psychology
Eb
To keep us up-beat
Bb F
So tell your mother that you love her dearly
Gm Eb
And tell your father your won't lock him out again
Bb F
And if these words wont drop from your lips
Gm Eb
I will be your Freudian slip
Bb F
And flowers might wilt when we walk past
Gm Eb
And self-help might help when it makes us laugh
Gm F
Only finding questions in answers
Gm Eb
You and I are just walking disasters (5x)
