Chords

As recorded by the Manchester Orchestra (From the 2005 Album NOBODY SINGS ANYMORE) [Intro] D Bm A D A D Bm A D A [Verse 1]
    D
Her heart beats fast

       Bm           A
Out of sheer pain inside

    D
Her face is left bruised

                       A
Just from speaking her mind

    D
She keeps the lights low

        Bm            A
Cuz the neighbors all know

          D
There's a husband next door

                 A
Who's creating a widow

    D
His first name is Russel

        Bm                A
And his best friend's the bottle

       D
He's a middle class man

                    A
With a hate for his father

    D
And her name is Marcy

    Bm           A
And she's such a darling

    D
She wears her black eyes

                A       F#m
Instead of fine jewelry

                    G
But she still loves him
[Chorus]
D           Bm    A     G D  A
La-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da

D           Bm    A     G D  A
La-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da
[Verse 2]
  A                         Bm           A
A little girl stands on the outskirts of town

          D
She makes beautiful noise

    G             A
But sticks to her frown

        D
There's nothing around here

       Bm             A
That's worth fighting for

    D
She drinks till she's quiet

                 A
And falls to the floor

      D
She's sorry she stands there

    Bm          A
And regrets her birth

      D
She's eager for love

               A
But lacking of worth

    D
The skies scream, "I hate you"

        Bm              A
And the clouds bleed of shame

    D
She sits there for hours

                           F#m
Playing the same song again

              G
And no one listens
[Chorus]
D           Bm    D        A
La-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da-Di-Da
