INTRO

C#m E F#m A

VERSE 1

C#m                       E
    So it started in your ovaries
  F#m
A stone, A seedling
    A       C#m
Our bones entwined
                   E
A warning from the orderlies
  F#m
A bulge for bleeding
           A        C#m
This would take its time
      E
Oh oh oh oh
      F#m   A
Ah ah ahhhh

VERSE 2
C#m                       E
So it all went down the telephone
  F#m
And saw me clearly
    A       C#m
All of nine years old
                   E
Calmly cast in Styrofoam
  F#m
In my Tony Lamas
           A        C#m
When the shock takes hold
      E
Oh oh oh oh
      F#m   A
Ah ah ahhhh

CHORUS

A               C#m
  Mom there are hurdles here
       Dmaj9          A
that I cannot seem to clear
              C#m
Dad there are demons round
G#
    I know I said that I

I said I'd be alright
  A      E      A      B5 C5 C#m
I lied I lied I lied I liiiiiiiiied
E F#m A

VERSE 3

C#m                       E
So fix your brood and belly now
  F#m
Get your fingers ringing
    A       C#m
Get your lungs unstayed
                   E
It'll eat you from the inside out
  F#m
Till it comes out screaming
           A        C#m
Till it all falls away
      E
Oh oh oh oh
      F#m   A
Ah ah ahhhh

CHORUS

A               C#m
  Dad there are hurdles here
       Dmaj9          A
that I cannot seem to clear
              C#m
Mom there are demons round
G#
    I know I said that I

I said I'd be alright
  A      E      A      B5 C5 C#m
I lied I lied I lied I liiiiiiiiied
E F#m A
