Elephant

	  		
          E 
This has got to die 
          G#m 
This has got to stop 
              F#m 
This has got to lie down 
             A 
Someone else on top 


             E 
You can keep me pinned 
              G#m 
It's easier to tease 
                  F#m 
But you can't paint an elephant 
                 A 
Quite as good as she 


            E         G#m 
And she may cry like a baby 
              G#m      A 
And she may drive me Crazy 

        E    A       F#m  B 
'Cause I am lately lonely 


                   E 
So why d'you have to lie? 
                  G#m 
I take it I'm your crutch 
                   F#m 
The pillow in your pillow case 
                A 
It's easier to touch 


                            E 
And when you think you've sinned 
                       G#m 
Do you fall upon your knees? 
                             F#m 
And do you sit within your picture? 
                          A 
Do you still forget the breeze? 


             E          G#m 
And she may rise, if I sing you down 
             G#m      A 
And she may wisely cling to the ground 

      E     A     F#m  B 
Cause I'm lately horny 
     E      A      F#m     B 
So why would she take me horny? 


 F#m                       G#m 
What's the point of this song? Or even singing? 
 A              B 
You've already gone, why am I clinging? 
 F#m                             G#m 
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without 

And I could do it all for you 

I could be strong 
 G#m                       F#m 
Tell me if you want me to lie 

                 E 
'Cause this has got to die 
                G#m 
This has got to stop 
                 F#m 
This has got to lie down, down 
                   A 
With someone else on top 


                    E 
You can both keep me pinned 
                    G#m 
'Cause it's easier to tease 
                   F#m 
But you can't make me happy 
                 A 
Quite as good as me
