 G5
Pages and pages and pages of poetry 
Cadd
 I am not doing so well 
  G5
Teach me the Bible, the scriptures, disciples 
    Cadd
and baby teach me how to spell 

    E5                     G5
My mother and father they got for a daughter 
  Cadd
I wish that I could have been more 
 E5                        G5
They were so proud when I learned how to walk 
          Cadd
but since then I just lay on the floor 

       A5   E5    A5   E5 ( D5 )
Then I lay 


 G5
Rosary's safe and my pillow is hair 
    Cadd
I'm coming to town, I'll call you when I get there 
 G5
Nightmare explosions, and gentle corrosions 
  Cadd
I never back down from a dare 

         E5                      G5
But you wasted the gift that I tried hard to give 
         Cadd
and you think that it's all so unfair 
    E5                       G5
but after you spit and you stab and you seethe 
       Cadd
do you really expect me to care? 

       A5   E5    A5   E5 ( D5 )
Then I lay

G5
Over and under, backwards and blundering 
Cadd
Let me get out of your hair 
 G5
Making me hate, I hope that you're wondering 
Cadd
How will I ever repair? 

     E5                       G5
But you'll be so sorry when they find my body 
 Cadd
Riddled with all your complaint 
    E5                          G5
And all of your smoke and your mind is a joke 
       Cadd
Did it hurt you so much that you lay? 

       A5   E5    A5   E5 ( D5 )
Then I lay

G5  D5   E5   C5
I lie down here,     x2

G5  D5   E5        C5
I lie with the flies 
         A5         C5
and the lilies you despise.
