CARAMIA (Emily Saliers)
D (xx0232@1)               ECaramia (022100@1)- a blank notebook and a back pocket fade...
            EmYou (022000@1)used to mock me;
                  GSometimes (320003@1)I would cry
     C#dim (3423xx@1)    D (xx0232@1)   Gm (355333@1) DWhen (xx0232@1)I was home later.

You hurt my feelings:
          B7Why, (x21202@1)why, why?
                      EmWrite (022000@1)it down in your notebook,
          G (320003@1)name="chord_3423xx@1">C#dim      D (xx0232@1)  Dsus4 (xx0233@1)DMy (xx0232@1)wannabe Harriet the spy.
              Bm7Some (x20202@1)say your genius
           Em7
Is in your madness;
             DmWill (xx0231@1)you get better?
                  D (xx0232@1)       Dsus4 (xx0233@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
And then will you leave us?
       G (320003@1)             C#dimHow (3423xx@1)you mixed with the darkness
                DAt (xx0232@1)such a young age!
              EmUntil (022000@1)in your chemistry
            GScience (320003@1)and violence
       C#dim (3423xx@1)        D (xx0232@1)Dsus4 (xx0233@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
Turned silence to rage.


D5 (xx023x@1)     D5/B        D5/C#          D5Why... (xx023x@1)      are you dreaming this?
         Am (x02210@1)        Am/B (012210@1)              Am/C (032210@1) Asus2One (x02200@1)shoe off, and a bridge to cross over.
D5 (xx023x@1)  D5/B        D5/C#      D5And (xx023x@1)where is your taxi fare?
        Am (x02210@1)        Am/BAre (012210@1)you left by yourself
    Am/C (032210@1)      Asus2Or (x02200@1)left by your lover?
    D5 (xx023x@1)                  D5/B
For three nights straight now
                 D5/C#      D5I (xx023x@1)dreamed I kept both of my shoes,
             Am (x02210@1)        Am/BBut (012210@1)I've forgotten my lines, and
    Am/C (032210@1)      Asus2I've (x02200@1)misplaced my cues;
D (xx0232@1)                        D/BAnd (x20232@1)there's a sea full of faces
      D/C#And (x40232@1)a show to go on;
        Am (x02210@1)        Am/BAnd (012210@1)I'm struck mute at entrance
    Am/C (032210@1)      Asus2With (x02200@1)nothing to draw from!

DThere (xx0232@1)were the secrets: the big bang
        EAnd (022100@1)the bigger joke.
                 EmYou (022000@1)seem to know all of them
        G (320003@1)             C#dim (3423xx@1)        D (xx0232@1)  Gm (355333@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
And injustice makes you red with choke.

You love like you're desperate!
                         B7You (x21202@1)don't know what love is!
                       EmI (022000@1)thought if there was one thing I could give you,
                  C#dimOne (3423xx@1)thing I could tell you,
             D (xx0232@1)        Dsus4 (xx0233@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
Maybe it was this...
                      Bm7With (x20202@1)your head on the bed board,
                Em7
The anguished repeat;
               DmThe (xx0231@1)sweat of our sadness--
                  D (xx0232@1)     Dsus4 (xx0233@1)DThe (xx0232@1)twist of the sheets.
             GI (320003@1)don't want what's best for you!
C#dim (3423xx@1)                      D (xx0232@1)    Where would I be if you found it?
                               EmI (022000@1)prayed a lot about these bad feelings inside,
            G (320003@1)         C#dim (3423xx@1)     D (xx0232@1)       Dsus4 (xx0233@1)DBut (xx0232@1)I can't pray my way through or around it.


I found a lot of this somewhere else and messed around with it a bit. If you are the 
transcriber, please let me know.
