F (133211@1)                              GmYou, (355333@1)me, and all the kings and queens

Buried in the junkyard,

F (133211@1)                              GmAnd (355333@1)every time the herald Cherub sings

We rattle with the car parts

F (133211@1)                          GmI (355333@1)was born to lie here patiently

Be dragged on by the black star

F (133211@1)                               GmAnd (355333@1)you were told to glow majestically

And love until your hands bleed

F (133211@1)                             GmYou (355333@1)stole your mother's whitest gown

Swallowed like a sunbeam

F (133211@1)                                GmAnd (355333@1)I stole your father's crusted crown

It shook us like a bad dream

F (133211@1)                       GmThey (355333@1)warned to lie impatiently

Waiting for the big swing

F (133211@1)                                   GmAnd (355333@1)you were more than dressing for a feast

Eat until your teeth bleed

C (x32010@1)              Bb (x1333x@1)            AmOh (x02210@1)my royalty my hand goes out to you
