Remember when he saw [Bb] his dad's [D] charm around her neck?
[G] He strung out his pen, [Bb] calling some friends, tried to catch [Gm] some chat.
Stacked in some, [Em] backwards from Tom [G] to his fat.
Needle in my hair,
[Bb] [Eb] needle in my hair, [G] needle in my hair, [Bb] needle [Eb] in my hair.

[F] [Dm]
[G] Swelling your [Gm] bones, head down your toe, I'll be rushing to you.
[Bb] You say you know what he did, too [F] lazy a kid, you don't have a [Eb] clue.
Sometimes they just caught [D] in the eye of a [G] woman that proved.
Needle in my hair, [Bb] needle in [Eb] my hair, [G]
needle in my hair, [Bb] needle in my hair.

Now I'm the cause, nearly touching this dirty [Eb] retreat.
Falling out, six-inch [Dm] palettes and sweat in my teeth.
I'm [Eb] gonna walk, walk, walk, home all blocked from the [Gm] one in my brain.
Down downstairs, see the [Dm] man, he's got a mess on his head.
I [Eb] can't be myself, I can't be [Dm] myself, and I [Eb] don't wanna talk.
Taking the juke, so I can be quiet wherever I want.
So leave me alone, you oughta be proud that I'm getting your [G] cards.
