Bm7, F#m, Em, Bm7
If you [Bm7]remember the sharks tooth you [F#m]gave me, I will [Em]hang it round the throat of my [Bm7]first born baby
and the [Bm7]weight of the chain on his [F#m]shoulders, will hang [Em]heavier each day that [Bm7]he gets older
so I [Bm7]carry my own weight in [F#m]plaster, and [Em]sleep with my lips wrapped [Bm7]round a coat hanger
when you were [Bm7]only as good as the [F#m]picture, [Em]fluttering burning [Bm7]stain in my fingers
and [Bm7]I, I, [F#m]I, I, [Em]I~[Bm7]
[Bm7]tried, tried, [F#m]tried, tried, [Em]tried~[Bm7]
to [A]mummify the silence in the [F#m]room, [A]with [Bm7]you[F#m][Em][Bm7]
I lived [Bm7]86 hours under[F#m]ground though [Em]I didn't help to [Bm7]dig the tunnel
used the [Bm7]time to carve four [F#m]others, where the [Em]tongue and the gum and the [Bm7]bone all hover
and [Bm7]I, I, [F#m]I, I, [Em]I~[Bm7]

(solo)
[Bm7]purple flairs and no [F#m]shoes, in a [Em]muddle in the middle of [Bm7]fairview airy
I [Bm7]wrapped my body in [F#m]tape, I [Em]made my face into a [Bm7]loaf of bread
