Intro 4x: G5  D5  C5 

          G5                             D5           C5
Well, you know i don't like you but you wanna be my friend
          ( C5 )           D5                   C5                G5
There are bodies on the ceiling and they're fluttering their wings
     ( G5 )                      D5           C5
It's ok, i'm angry but you'll never understand
         ( C5 )           D5            C5               G5
When you dream of Michelangelo they hang above your hands

      A5                      D5
And i know that she is not my friend
      A5                        C5             D5
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again

      G5                 D5             C5
And i can't see why you wanna talk to me
          ( C5 )       D5          C5               G5
When your vision of America is crystalline and clean
        ( G5 )                               D5            C5
I want a white bread life, just something ignorant and plain
             ( C5 )           D5           C5          G5
But from the walls of Michelangelo i'm dangling again

      A5                      D5
And i know that she is not my friend
      A5                        C5             D5               G5
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again and again

C5                    D5
Saturn on a line...a sun afire strings and wires to
C5                              G5
spin above my head and make it right
    C5                         D5
But any time you like you can catch a sight of angel eyes
    C5             D5
all emptiness and infinite

      G5                              D5           C5
And i dream of Michelangelo when i'm lying in my bed
      ( C5 )          D5              C5          G5
I see God upon the ceiling, i see angels overhead
       ( G5 )                  D5               C5
And it seems so close as he reaches out his hand
           ( C5 )            D5               C5           G5
But we are never quite as close as we are led to understand

      A5                      D5
And i know that she is not my friend
      A5                        C5                 D5
And i know cause there she goes walking, walking, walking
      A5                      D5
And i know that she is not my friend
      A5                        C5             D5               G5
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again and again

      C5              G5
On my mind...oh Lord no...
          C5             D5                G5
Yes she's walking on my skin again and again
