Here we go...........
B F# G#m E
I wish I had a Sylvia Plath
B F# G#m E
Busted tooth and a smile
B F# G#m E
And ciggarette ashes in her drink
B F# G#m
The kind that goes out and then sleeps for a
E
week
B F# G#m E
The kind that goes out on her own
B F# G#m E
To give me a reason for well I dunno
(Chorus)
A E
Maybe she'd take me to France
F#m B
Or maybe to Spain she'd ask me to dance
A E
In a mansion on the top of the hill
F#m B
She'd ash on the carpets and slip me a pill
A E
Then she'd get me pretty loaded on gin
F#m E
And maybe she'd give me a bath...
G#m E F#
How I wish I had a Sylivia Plath
And she and I would sleep on a boat
And swim in the sea without any clothes
With rain falling fast on the sea
While she was swimming away, she'd be winking at me
Telling me it would all be OK
Out on the horizon and fading away
And I'd swim to the boat and I'd laugh
I gotta get me a Sylvia Plath
(REPEAT Chorus)
I wish I had a Sylvia Plath....
