  Em        B7                 G
    "Do it again", she said to me
{ |@1 @3 @4 |@1}
            Am             D   C     Em
So I nailed my hand to the baseboard floor
{ |@1 |@1}
           B7              G
Hysterically, laughing at me
{ |@1 @3 @4 |@1}
               Am             D      C   Em
She begged the question and I begged for more
[Verse 2] --------- { |@1 |@1}
        B7                G
Now I water the thorn you rammed
{ |@1 @2& @4 |@1}
          Am             D7    C7  Em
Deep into my side, watch it fertilize
{ |@1 |@1}
                B7                   G
You shoved your finger right down my throat
{ |@1 @2& @4}
        Am              D7     C7
And you made me puke up all of my pride
[Chorus 1] ---------- {|@1 |@1}
  Em                   B7
  Pop the beach balls, burn the photos
{|@1 |@1 @3}
  Am                       G          B7
  C-4 your safe and you'll never grow old
{ |@1 |@1}
   Em                   B7
So get out of dodge and become a thought
{ |@1 |@1 @3}
      Am                         G            B7
Cause once you're a thought, hopefully you're forgot
[Instrumental verse] -------------------- {(|@1 |@1 |@1 |@1 @2& @4) x2} Em B7 G Am D7 C7 [Verse 3] --------- {|@1 |@1 |@1}
  Em            B7                G
    If we break up, don't write a song
{ |@1 @3 @4 |@1}
                   Am               D     C   Em
That would drag my name through the shit, the mud
{ |@1 |@1}
                     B7                 G
Cause I've seen some solid swimmers who drowned
{ |@1 @3 @4 |@1}
           Am                  D      C   Em
When you unleashed the dam and caused the flood
[Verse 4] --------- { |@1 |@1}
              B7                      G
But with free choice there comes free will
{ |@1 @2& @4 |@1}
           Am        D7      C7  Em
And I'm so happy she decided to  leave
{ |@1 |@1}
               B7                    G
Cause now I'm alone, the demons come home
{ |@1 @2& @4}
           Am         D7   C7
And now my plan is rolling up its sleeve
[Chorus 2] ---------- {|@1 |@1}
  Em                   B7
  Pop the beach balls, burn the photos
{|@1 |@1 @3}
  Am                       G          B7
  C-4 your safe and you'll never grow old
{ |@1 |@1}
   Em                   B7
So get out of dodge and become a thought
{ |@1 |@1 @3}
      Am                         G            B7
Cause once you're a thought, hopefully you're forgot
[Chorus 3] ---------- {|@1 |@1}
  Em                   B7
  Pop the beach balls, burn the photos
{|@1 |@1 @3}
  Am                       G          B7
  C-4 your safe and you'll never grow old
{ |@1 |@1}
   Em                   B7
So get out of dodge and become a thought
{ |@1 |@1 @3}
      Am                         G            B7
Cause once you're a thought, hopefully you're forgot

G C [Bridge] -------- {|+DB@1 |@1 |@1}
     Gmaj7        Cmaj7             Gmaj7
       Because my morale's begun to decay
{ |@1 |@1}
           Cmaj7                          Gmaj7
And all my friends have the same thing to say
{ |@1 |@1}
              Cmaj7                  Gmaj7
They say that good times have faded away

They say that they're all worried about me

             C*                 G*
Cause I feed birds in the cemetery
{ |*B@1 |*DB@1}
           C*                         B7*
And I rake leaves off the grass in my grave
{ |*DB@1 |@1}
           C*                 G
Because my memory lane is now paved
[Outro] ------- { |@1 |@1}
