Intro 

F# C# F# C#

Verse

F#        C#          F#      C#
Called to see if your back was still aligned
         F#         C#
and your sheets are growing grass
           B                      C#
all on the corners of your bed
F#                 C#                  F#
but you've got too much to wear on your sleeves 
         C#                      F#
and it's too much to do with me
     C#                B                  C#
and secretly I want to bury in the yard
   D#m                E          B          C#
the grey remains of a friendship scarred

B C# B C# B C# (The electric guitar plays over this, just using B and C# too)

(Repeat verse chords)

You told us of your new life there
you've got someone coming round gluing tinsel on your crown
he's got you talking pretty loud
you berate remember your ailing heart and your criminal eyes
you say you're still in love if it's true what can be done
it's hard to leave all those moments behind

Repeat B and C# through solo

(Repeat Verse Chords)

and it's too much to do with me

the grey remains of a friendship scarred

B              C#        B              C#
You tested your metal of doe's skin and petals
B                 C#          B             C#            D#m
while kissing the lipless who bleed all the sweetness away
