Verse:
D                    Dm
Where she walks, no flowers bloom

He's the one I see right through

She's the absinthe on my lips
Cadd9        G     D
The splinter in my fingertip

And who could do without you?

Sometimes I can't tell where I am
Cadd9          G      D
Where I leave off and he begins

Dancing with a ball and chain

Through it all we still remain

Butterflies around the flame
D           D/C       D/Bb  Asus4
Till ashes, ashes, we fade  away
