[Intro]
Em D/F# G Gmaj7/A*
[Verse 1]
D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D Little girl, playin' with the moonlight, G Gadd11 G D Dsus2 D Shine it on me, ooh, shine it on me, A Asus2 A Em D/F# G G/A D There's a cloud over my light and it's troubling me.
[Verse 2]
D Such a world, such an invitation, G D Come as you are, they say come as you are, A Em D/F# G Gmaj7/A D Subject to change, but we'll try not to leave any scars.
[Chorus]
G D Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away, A They don't want to hear your sad story today, G/A D Everybody's busy whoever they are, G D Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough, A But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff, G/A D Wait 'til it rains and give it away. D Give it away.
[Verse 3]
D Little girl, they just want to train you, G D To keep them amused, oh, to keep them amused, A Em D/F# G G/A D They don't know, you got your match to the end of that fuse.
[Chorus]
G D Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away, A They don't want to hear your sad story today, G/A D Everybody's busy whoever they are, G D Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough, A But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff, G/A D Wait 'til it rains and give it away. G D Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away, A They don't want to hear your sad story today, G/A D Everybody's busy whoever they are, G D Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough, A But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff, G/A D Wait 'til it rains and give it away.
