Intro: A F#m E (2x)
A
Skeleton you are my friend
F#m E A F#m E
But you are made of bone
A
And you have got no flesh and blood
F#m E A F#m E
Running through you to help protect the bone
A F#m E
Skeleton we have been friends for years
A
And you have seen me through some trials
F#m E A
And tribulations and some tears
F#m E A F#m E
But everybody thinks I'm weird
Refrain:
A D
And I should have known
F#m E D
That it wouldn't be long
F#m E D A
Until you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
F#m E D A
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
F#m E D A
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
F#m E D A
But I don't know what to do
A F#m E
Skeleton we are so close
A
But you have got no body
F#m E A F#m E
So why do you insist on wearing clothes
A F#m E
A
Skeleton when we were young
F#m E
It was easy
A
Even though the other kids
F#m E
They would tease me
A
But I was only seven I had you
F#m E A F#m E
But now I'm twenty-two
Refrain:
A D F#m E D
And now it's different, when I take you out
F#m E D A
And you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
F#m E D A
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
F#m E D A
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
F#m E D A
But I don't know what to do
Bridge:
Dm Am Dm Am
'Cause sometimes at night,
Dm Am Dm Am
I dream of the most terrible things
Dm Am Dm Am
I take a hammer and I creep out of bed
Dm Am
And I raise it high
Dm Am
And I smash your head
Dm Am
Fibular and tubular
Dm Am
And ribs and cages, too
Dm Am
In fact, while I'm here
Dm Am
I'll smash the whole of you
Dm Am (4x) A
Smaaaaaaaaaaash!
F#m E A F#m E
But Skeleton, you are my friend
A F#m E A F#m E
And I could never bring your life to an end
A F#m E A F#m E
Yes Skeleton you are, you are my friend
A F#m E A F#m E
And I will be there for you until the end
Refrain:
A D F#m E D
And even though, when I take you out
F#m E D A
You've got me, you've got me standing in an awkward position
F#m E D A
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
F#m E D A
I could, I could never let you go
F#m E D A
And that is all I know
F#m E D A
And that is all I know
F#m E D A
And that is all I, that is all I know
F#m E D A
And that is all I know, know
F#m E D A
