Start Jamming...
[D#] The [E] air escaping from [F#m] your mouth, [B] the air [E] escaping from your [C#m] nose.
[F#m] My heart [B] escaping from the scraping and the shaping of [A] the [B] draping.
I'm [E] waking [F#m] in a t [C#]-shirt, [E] in a Chevy, [C#m]
[F#] at the [C#] beach.
[E] And I'm freezing, [C#m] and [A] I'm wheezing.
[B] [E] [C#m] You know [F#m] me, baby.
[A] I hit you, then I beat you, then I told you that I love you.
[B] In my car, in [A] a jar.
In [B] my car, in [A] a jar.
[B] [E] The air escaping [F#m] from your hips, [B] the air [E] escaping from my feet.
[F#m] [B] I'm dripping, but there's slipping and dripping.
[A] [B] I [E] got buzzed head, [F#m] coming through passers.
[B] [E] With a silicate, [F#m] for all I [B] care.
It [E] was a special, [A] every car.
[B] [E] [C#m]
[F#m] [A] First they cry, then they bleed.
Then they talk, they don't like.
[B] And I'm frozen, in [A] my mask.
We [B] can't pass, in [A] my mask.
[B] We can't pass, in [A] my mask.
We [B] can't pass, in [A] my mask.
