_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
You can [F] tell from the scars on my arms and the cracks in my [Ab] hips and the dents in my
car and the blisters on my [D] lips that I'm not the [F] carefulest of those.
You can tell from the glass on the floor and the strings that are [Ab] breaking and I keep on
breaking more and it looks like I am [D] shaking but it's just the [F] temperature.
Then [C] again if I were any colder [F] I could disengage, if I were [D] any older I would act my [F] age but
I don't think that you'd [C] believe me.
The [F] way I'm [D] meant to be, it's just the way the [F] operation made me.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ You [F] can tell from the shape of my room that they let me out [Ab] too soon and the pills that
I ate came a couple of [D] weeks too late and I've got some [F] issues to work through.
There [C] I go again pretending [F] to be you.
Make [Am] believing that I have a soul [E] beneath the surface playing [F] Goofy McGoofy which is incidentally unprogressive.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ [Db] I am not [Eb] the seriousest person, [Bb] it's a plagiarism.
I might join [Db] your century but only on a rare occasion.
I'm just taking [Eb] a bit more of those legal games [Bb] to stand up.
There's a whole new world [F] outside that I can't live like I'm the girl in that cornice of.
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ You [Fm] can tell by [F] the red in my eyes and the bruises on [Ab] my thighs and the knots in my hair
and the mouth are full of [D] flies that I'm not right [F] now at all.
There [C] I go again pretending [F] that I'll call the call [D] the doctors, they've seen it [F] all before.
They'll [C] say just let her [F] crap and [D] she'll learn the attention just [F] encourages her.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ She [F] can tell from the full body cast that you're sorry that [Ab] you asked her, you did
everything you could like any decent person [D] would.
But I might be [F] catching so don't tell me.
So show [C] believing you're immune to [F] gravity and [D] stuff.
Don't get me wrong because the bandages [F] will all come off.
You can tell from the smoke and the stink but the current state [Ab] is critical.
What is the local thing, [F] for instance?
In the time it takes to break it she could make up good excuses.
She's excusing for the day, it's just the way the medication makes her. _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] I don't [Eb] necessarily believe that it's [Bb] incapable.
I might join a [Db] century but only if it's a good guess.
I'll just get [Eb] her used to and move to the next [Bb] century.
You know how I'm going to work.
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ [F] I am the girl in that [Bb] cringe film.
[F] I am the girl.
I am the girl.
I am the girl in that cringe film. _ _ _ _ _
