Introduction: Gm
Gm Cm
About as subtle as an earthquake, I know
F Gm
my mistakes were made for you
( Gm) Cm
& in the back room of a bad dream she came
F Gm
& whisked me away, enthused
( Gm)
& it's as solid as a rock rolling down a hill
Cm F
the fact is that it prob'ly will hit something
Gm
on the hazardous terrain
( Gm)
& we're just following the flock 'round and in between
Cm F
before we're smashed to smithereens like they were
D7
and we scramble from the blame
( D7) Cm
& it's the fame that put words in her mouth
D7
she couldn't help but spit 'em out
Cm D7 Gm
innocence & arrogance entwined in the filthiest of minds
Gm Cm
She was bitten on her birthday and now
F Gm
a face in the crowd she's not
Gm Cm
& I suspect that now forever the shape
F D7
she came to escape is forgot
( D7) Cm
& it's a lot to ask her not to sting
D7
& give her less than ev'rything
Cm D7
around your crooked conscience she will wind
( Am)
Cos we're just following the flock 'round & in between
Dm G
before we're smashed to smithereens like they were
E7
& we scramble from the blame
( E7) Dm
& it's the fame that put words in her mouth
E7
she couldn't help but spit 'em out
Dm E7
around your crooked conscience she will wind
Dm
& it's a lot to ask her not to sting
E7
& give her less than everything
Dm
innocence & arrogance entwined.
