Introdução:
B
But let's talk about you for a minute
E
With the vomit at your gullet
F# G#m E
From a half bottle of vodka that we'd stolen from the optic
B E
On the back seat of your car, because it wasn't safe to start it
F# G#m E
You were "far too fucked to drive", were the words that you imparted
B E F# G#m E
And the woollen dress that clung so tight to the contours of your body
B E F# G#m E
And the dead grass stuck to fibres from us rolling in the lay-by
B E
Were passed to dog-haired blankets
F# G#m E
That protected the bench seat covers
B E F# G#m E
And a crucifix was hung from rear view mirror by your mother
A F# G#mA F#E
(glockenspiel part:)
Ab B Ab Bb Db
I'm leaving my body to science, not medical but physics
Ab B Ab Bb Db
Drag my corpse through the airport and lay me limp on the left wing
Ab B Ab Bb Db
Drop me at the highest point and trace a line around the dent I leave in the ground
Ab B Ab Bb
That'll be the initial of the one you'll marry now I'm not around
Db Ab B
I flew for seven hours, the sky didn't once turn black
B
And I would sooner go down in a ball of flames!
G#m
(Then I would lay here and be bored to death
E Dbm G#m
All's well that ends.)
B E F# G#m E
I wake from sleep, my head and shoulder, wet against the window
B E F# G#m E
A frost had formed and melted, soaked me right through to my collarbone
B E F# G#m
If you were given the option of dying painlessly in peace at 45
E B E F# G#m E B
But with a lover at your side, after a full and happy life
E F# G#m E B
Is this something that would interest you?
E F# G#m E
Would this interest you at all?
