He told her when she played,

     G (320003@1)                            DAnd (xx0232@1)every bone inside her seemed to change.
    Em (022000@1)         
So on her fingers moved

             C (x32010@1)                     Bm (x24432@1)Cause sometimes every word has been used,

   C (x32010@1)                 G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)             *
