Standard tuning.


             
He left a card

    
 a bar of soap

            
And a scrubbin

             
g brush next t

o a note 

             
That said use 

             
these down to 

              
your bones 

             
And before i k

            
new I had shin

y skin 

            
And it felt ea

            
sy being clean

 like him 

             
I thought this

             
 one knows bet

                 
ter than I do 


pre-chorus:

            
A triangle try

             
ing to squeeze

             
 thru a circle

 

            
He tried to cu

             
t me so I'd fi

Chorus

             
Doesnt that so

         
und familiar 

              
Doesnt that hi

             
s too close to

   
 home 

              
Doesnt that ma

        
ke you shiver 

              
The way things

             
 could have go

ne 

             
Doesnt that fe

       
el peculiar 

              
That everyone 

          
wants a little

 more 

              
And so that I 

      
do remember

              
To never go th

Could you leav

Verse 2


So the next one came with a bag of treats, 
she smelled like sugar and spoke like the sea
And she told me don't trust them, trust me
Then she pulled at my stitches one by one, 
Looked at my insides clicking her tongue 
And said "This will all have to come undone"

pre-chorus

A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle
She tried to blunt me so I'd fit


Chorus 2  last line *chord change:

	           
Could you leav

   *
e me with a sc

ar


Instrumental is a bit like this,' - '= one beat
 
Dm---F---C---G---Dm---F---(stop)


Bridge (No chords)                                             

I think I realized just in time

Although my old self was hard to find
                                              
You can bathe me in your finest wine but I'll never give you mine



(SINGLE NOTES ONLY)

             
'Cos I'm a lit

              
tle bit tired 

     
of fearing tha

t I'll be the 


Bad fruit nobo

dy buys

             
Tell me, did y

              
ou think we'd 

              
all dream the 


same?



The first half of the last chorus is just guitar, I like to play the chords like this:


C      0 3 2 0 1 0   

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.
