Introduction: Ab    Eb/G    Ab/F    Eb/G    

Ab                                                                         Eb/G  
She was lying on the floor and counting stretch marks
Fm7                                                                    C#  
She hadn't been a virgin and he hadn't been a god
Ab                                      Eb/G  
So she names the baby Elvis
Fm7                                                    C#  
To make up for the royalty he lacked
Ab                                                         Eb/G  
And from then on it was turpentine and patches
Fm7                                                            C#  
From then on it was cold Campbell's from the can
Ab                                                                      Eb/G  
And they were just two jerks playing with matches
Fm7                                                         C#  
Cause that's all they knew how to play
Ab  Eb/G  Ab/F    Eb/Gx2  
Ab                                                                                            Eb/G  
And it was raining cats and dogs out side of her window
Fm7                                                                                         C#  
And she knew they were destined to become
                                                                Ab  
Sacred road kill on the way
                                                                             Fm                                         Eb/G  
And she was listening to the sound of heavens shaking
                                                        C#                                      Ab  
Thinking about puddles, puddles and mistakes
                                          Eb/G  
Cause it's been turpentine and patches
             Fm7                              C#  
It's been cold, cold Campbell's from the can
Ab                                                                    Eb/G  
And they were just two jerks playing with matches
  Fm7                                              C#                         F#  
Cause that's all they knew how to play
C#            F#2  
Ab  Eb/G  Ab/F    Eb/Gx2  
Ab                                         Eb/G  
Elvis never could carry a tune
Fm7                                                                                    C#  
She thought about this irony as she stared back at the moon
Ab                                              Eb/G                                                                    Fm7  
She was tracing her years with her fingers on her skin
                                          C#  
Saying why don't I begin again
Ab              Eb/G  
With turpentine and patches
Fm7                                 C#  
With cold, cold Campbell's from the can
Ab                                                                 Eb/G  
After all I'm still a jerk playing with matches
Fm7                                                                              C#  
It's just that he's not around to play along
Ab                                              Eb/G  
I'm still an asshole playing with candles
Fm7                                      C#  
Blowing out wishes blowing out dreams
Ab                                                    Eb/G  
Just sitting here and trying to decipher
Fm7                                                            C#              F#  
What's written in Braille upon my skin...
C#              F#2x3  
Ab  Eb/G  Ab/F    Eb/Gx2
