Verse 2
So the next one came with a bag of treats,
she smelled like sugar and spoke like the sea

Looked at my insides clicking her tongue
And said "This will all have to come undone"

G6 X 2 0 0 3 0 (Instead of G)
C6 X 0 2 0 1 3 (Instead of Am)
F X 3 3 2 1 1
Then the normal chords for the last part.
