[C] [G] [Am] [F]
[C] [G] [Am] [Gm] [F]
[C] He left a [G] cot of orange [Am] soap and a scrubbing brush [F] next to [Em] an office that he used [G] to use
down to your [Am] [D] bones.
[F]
[C] And before I [G] knew it I had shiny [Am] skin and I felt [F] easy being queen like [C] him.
I thought this one [G] knows better [Am] than I do.
[F]
[Dm] Triangle [F] trying to [G] squeeze through a circle.
[Dm] He tried to cuff me [F] so I'd fit.
[B] And doesn't that [C] sound familiar?
Doesn't [G] that hit so close to home?
Doesn't [Am] that make you shiver?
The way things [F] could have gone.
And doesn't that [C] feel peculiar?
When everyone [G] wants a little more.
So that [Am] I do remember.
Never [F] go that far and could you leave me [C] be the sky?
[G] [Am] [F]
[C] [G] [Am] [Dm] [F]
[C] So the next one [G] came with a bag of [F] treats.
She smelled like sugar and smelled like [C] cuisine.
She told me [G] don't trust them, [Am] trust me.
[F]
[Em] Then she pulled at my [G] stitches one by [F] one.
Looked at my insides, clicking her [C] tongue.
And said this will [G] all have to [Am] come [Dm] undone.
Triangle [F] trying to squeeze [G] through a circle.
[Dm] She tried to blind me [F] so I'd fit.
[G] And doesn't that [C] sound familiar?
Doesn't that hit so [G] close to home?
Doesn't that [Am] make you shiver?
The way things [F] could have gone.
And doesn't that [C] feel peculiar?
When everyone [G] wants a little more.
So that I [Am] do remember.
Never [F] go that far and could you leave me be the sky?
[G] [F] I
[C] [G] [G]
[Dm] [G] [F] [G]
[C] think I [Cm] realized [Em] just in time.
Although my [N] old self was hard to find.
You can bathe me [B] in your finest wine.
But I'll never give you [A] mine.
[C] Cause I'm a little bit tired of fearing that [G] I'll be the bad fruit [Em] nobody [D]
[C] buys.
Tell me did you think we'd all [F] dream the same?
And doesn't that [C] sound familiar?
Doesn't that [G] hit so close to home?
Doesn't that [Am] make you shiver?
The way things could [F] have gone.
And [Dm] doesn't that [C] feel peculiar?
When everyone wants a little [G] more.
So that I [Am] do remember.
Never go [F] that far and could you leave me be [C] the sky?
[G]
[Am] With [F] the sky.
[C] [G]
[Am] Could you leave me with [F] the sky?
