_ [A] _ [E] But Peanut [D] had [A] no idea how much I'd need her
[E] [A] In peaceful times I'd hold her close and I would feed her

But [D] I think I'll get [E] along
[G] She's a girl, _ she's a ball

[D] _ [A] _ _ _ [E] my [D] heart [E] felt like a shattered [A] glass in an acid bath
[E] [D] Felt like one of those [E] flattened ants [A] you'd find on a crazy path
