Tabbed by the-ian

alright everyone, this is one of those situations where i heard a song and said "i've
got to learn how to play that", came up empty scouring the internet for tabs and
eventually said "oh hell i'll do it myself."


C
Bloody sheets
F            C        F
Tenderly she moves me
   C
An opera star
F              C    F
Dying hard for love
    G
You say I'm hurt
F                C
I will take your word

(chords same as verse 1)
Leather pants
Happiness
A hundred dollars
Buy success
Hanging with your fashionable whores
And I'm a wounded bird
I will take your word

C
You and tom (you and tom)
F
To the prom (to the prom)
C
Camel dick (camel dick)
F
Crucifix (crucifix)
C              F               C    F
Everyone's the same and on and on
G                 F
Emerging from the football stands
G               F
Clinging to his broken hand
     C           F             C
It's over I have seen it all before


(chords same as verse 3)
Nakedness (nakedness)
A flying lesson
Tattered dress
Sunburned chest
You will pay for your excessive charm
With a boy who knows
Less than he thinks
Drinks up his expensive drinks
Be careful with the details of the war

(repeat C  F to fade)

Notes:
- in verse 1, each chord is strummed only once.  in the other 3 verses a standard
strumming pattern is used.
- in case you're really old school and double up on the guitar and harmonica, the
harmonica chord played repeatedly at the end is just blowing into holes 6&7
simultaneously on a standard C harp
