Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
You [Am]are
sanscrid on [G]my skin
Peel me open 'til I am
[Am]nothing but a whisper
Name your self center, I
only play [G]for pennies
And I don't play [Am]for sinners,
I play for sadness
[G]I play for dead things

[Verse 2]
So [F]pull [Am]the bones
from their sockets
[C]Please be soft while you do [G]it for I am fragile
[F]and [Am]fading
Sarasvaties sew me [C]to sleep
I rested [G]my gains and [F]knee and
the music I like [Am]goes up
And down like bobbing [C]bodies
[G]in [F]the river bend

[Verse 3]
And they say "Mary, why are your [Am]songs
[C]so [G]sad?[Am]
Look [G]at the luck and fortune
you've had
Why do you [Am]cry at night?"

[Verse 4]
Pull the [G]bones from [F]their sockets
[Am]Please [C]be soft while you do it
[G]for I am fragile and fading

[Verse 5]
[F]You can [Am]take my body
and tongue and organs
[C]Whisper [G]my skin like death has [F]already
[Am]rose [C]and stu[G]ff[F][Am]
[C]Every [G]pie[F]ce [C]of me that c[G]rashes
[F]And every piece of you[C]
And I swear that's how they make [G]stars
[F]I don't kno[Am]w

[Verse 6]
Pull the [C]bones [G]from their
[F]soc[Am]kets
[C]Please [G]be soft while you do [F]it for[Am] I a[C]m[G][F]
[Am]fragile and fading

[Outro 1]
[C][G][F][Am][C][G][F]
