D
She's never alone,
A Bm
because she's scared of what she might say to herself
A D F#m
Always drinking in the backroom of the bar where
Bm A G
everyone turns in
A
A half-hearted grin
D
She won't be afraid
A Bm
as long as that prescription keeps going through
A D F#m
And all the happy pills make her look like cardboard
Bm A G
cut out of someone,
A
I use to learn from
Bm A G
But on the phone, she's telling everyone,
D F#m
that there was a blue sky, she left behind
Bm A G
And there's a place that no one knows about,
Em G A
Away from integrity she writes a book in her head that nobody will read
D A Bm G
D
Whatever you say,
A Bm
please don't talk about the time when she was young
A D F#m
Apparently that was a different person and so
Bm A G
long ago it's strange to me,
A
there's no history
Bm A G
But there's a past and she's telling everyone
D F#m
It must be a garden, that wouldn't grow
Bm A G
With roots of shame, too sensitive to blame
Em G A
herself as we watch he drown, I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown
(some solo stuff)
D A Bm G
D F#m
Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy
Bm A
there is a selfish dream
G (A)
That makes me sick
D F#m
Standing on the high wire while you're on the ground
Bm A G
To you what is dangerous is safe and sound...
You let me down
(outro)
D A Bm G
