[Verse]
B C# D G* G/F# E/A
When my dad died the worms ate out both his eyes.
G* G/F# E/A G/F# C# B A G
His soul flew right up in the sky and I cried myself to sleep.
B C# D G* G/F# E/A
My mother lies alone on her back at night,
G* G/F# E/A G/F# C# B A G
Adding up hours till her demise, she counts herself to sleep.
B C# D G* G/F# E/A
When my sister finds my body closed up like the blinds,
G* G/F# E/A G/F# C# B A G
I tell her I promise its fine, but she cries herself to sleep.
B C# D G* G/F# E/A
The men in black ties arrive at the house in surprise.
G* G/F# E/A G/F# C# B A
To find a little girl by your side in the wood box where you're sleeping.

Interlude: La da da da da duh da duh da daa... dah x2

[Bridge]
G A B A G
I still see you inside of this God-awful house
B A G
You move awfully quiet now
G A B A G
And I still feel you everywhere (repeat "everywhere" 0/3 times depending on

which version you're playing)
B A G
You told me this has always been worth living,
G G G B A G
But what's really worth living anymore?

[Outro]
B A G
