F   C       Bb    F
She puts my body away
Bb          F
Next to the trash
C         A
Under the sink
 Dm        Am         Bb           F
Along with all of the cleaning supplies
        Dm             Am        Bb            F
And the things that we buy and decide we don't need

          F             C             Bb        F
Well it's damp and it's dark and it's lonely in here
Bb          F
Next to the trash
C         A
Under the sink
    Dm       Am              Bb          F
But everyone needs some time off now and then
       Dm        Am                  Bb        F
So I'm happy, my friends, don't feel sorry for me.

(quick 4/4)

    Dm                                                      F
She says if you're playing a game I hope you know you won't win it
           Dm                                                        F
And if you tell me you're next to the trash, well, I'll tell you I'm in it
    Bb                                     back to 3/4 on: Am
And why would you want me to touch you if you know I don't mean it

Em               Am            Em
She's right, I'm mean when I'm bored
     Am              Em
So I dig through the trash
Dm          Am
Looking for her
        F            C          Em            Am
She can wash herself off in the mist from the pipes
         F           C           Em               Am
We could use more of that around here, that's for sure.

       F             C        Bb          F
But it seems that whoever has thrown her away
       Bb         F
Has forgotten the trash
C         A
Under the sink
   Dm       Am            Bb           F
Or was it a joke meant to buy her some time?
        Dm         Am           Bb        F
All the citrus and pine make it harder to think.

)quick 4/4)

     Dm                                                     F
So I say if you're playing a game I hope you know you won't win it
       Dm                                               F
I'd be sorry if they threw you away it's just that they didn't
         Bb                         back to 3/4 on: Am
She says Boy you better take it back right now and I mean it

She puts my body away and then
Bb        F
Chases my mind
C         A
Up to the roof
   Dm           Am         Bb           F
It jumps in the gutter and she pulls it out
         Dm          Am       Bb         F
And it's all part of having a man in the house
 
   Dm           Am         Bb                            Am
It jumps in the gutter and she        pulls      it      out

(Am run)

         Dm          Am       Bb                       F
And it's all part of having a man       in     the     house.
