sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers
don't let it in when it comes kicking at your door
Chorus:
Em7 loneliness C9 loneliness G loneliness D oh oh C9 came kicking at my door
Verse 3:
G D Em C Cm7 she said I've really come to hate my body G D Em C Cm7 and all the things that it requires in this world G D Em C Cm7 I bet you're out there getting drunk with all your friends A D and it'll get you in the bathroom of a Texaco
