E emaj7amaj7 asus2

Ive broken your glass, called someone a dirty name

E asus2 b

Made a nuisance of myself in front of friends

E emaj7amaj7 asus2

Ive dug my own grave, please dont let me lie in it

E a be

Instead lets bury everything that caused us pain



Chorus

E emaj7a asus2

Speak to me now, speak to me darling

E emaj7 a asus2

Youre not a princess Im not prince charming

E emaj7 a asus2

Speak with your tongue, use body language

E asus2 b e

And pull your skin like wrapping paper round my heart



Sometimes I feel the kick has gone, it gets mundane

So I team up with the devil and make hell

But Ill hang on in as long as I know Ive got you

As long as I know loves a cure that makes me well



(chorus, instrumental verse)



We move around, drag ourselves from town to town

Wrap up lots of gifts and toys and china tea

But they dont feel nothin, theyre just inanimate

They just go in suitcases and fly away



Chorus (last line x3), repeat intro /pre>
