Chords

Note: Chords come from the Acoustic Version - called "Early Version" that appears on the On EP. It will work with the other lead tab here for the original version if you put a on III for these chords. Intro: C F Am F

C
Bored holes through our tongues, so sing a song about it

F
Held our breath for too long till we're half sick about it

Am
Tell us what we did wrong and you can blame us for it

F                           Fm
Turn a clamp on our thumbs, we'll sew a doll about it

C                         F
And tell us all about it

Am                    F
And tell us all about it

G# A#

C#              G#
How about some credit now

                C#
Where credit is due

                          G#    G#/G
For the damage that we've done

C#                   G#
We have brought upon ourselves and others

       A#               D#
With a slow and vicious gun

             C#               D#
And although pratfalls can be fun

               G
Encores can be fatal

And then I hear you say

C
Thank God it's fatal

Thank God it's fatal F

Am
Not shy

Not shy of fatal

                  F
Not shy of fatal

C
Thank God it's fatal

                      F
Thank God it's fatal

Am
Not shy of fatal

                 F
Not shy of fatal

G# A#

C#              G#
Wait just a second now

                C#
It's not all that bad

                          G#    G#/G
Don't you count out the sun

C#                   G#
You're making mountains of handkerchiefs

       A#               D#
Where the mascara always runs

             C#               D#
So be careful when you're done

               G
You're bound to get post-natal

What did I just hear you say? Repeat C F Am F progression to end Thank God it's fatal No, we don't want to hear the sound of a door No, we don't want to hear the sound of a door And we don't want to read the signs that you bore You know the kind of sign you hang on a door Saying, "We'll be back. What a crack." Now don't you think we might have heard that before? Now don't you think we might have heard that before? Bored holes through our tongues, so sing a song about it Held our breath for too long till we're half sick about it Tell us what we did wrong and you can blame us for it Turn a clamp on our thumbs, we'll sew a doll about it
