Intro: G C F C 


Verse 1 

G                                  
   Why don’t you ever want to play? 
C 
   I’m tired of this piece of string 
D 
   You sleep as much as I do now and you 
C                   G        D/F# 
  Don’t eat much of anything 
G 
  I don’t know who you’re talking to 
C 
  I’ve made a search through every room 
D 
  But all I found was dust that moved 
      C               G          D/F# 
  And shadows of the afternoon 


    G 
And listen 
            C 
About those bitter songs you sing 
            Am 
They’re not helping anything 
           C        G 
They won’t make you strong 



Verse 2 

G 
  So we should open up the house 
C 
  Invite the tabby two doors down 
D 
  You can ask your sister if 
C                       G             D/F# 
  She doesn’t bring her basset hound 
G 
  And as for things you shouldn’t miss 
C 
  Tape hiss and the modern man 
D 
  Cold war and card catalogues 
C                      G           D/F# 
  To come and join us if they can 

G 
  For girly drinks and parlour games 
C 
  We’ll pass around the easy lie 
D 
  Of absolutely no regrets 
C                   G            D/F# 
  Then later maybe you could try 
G 
  To let your losses dangle off 
C 
  The sharp edge of the century 
D 
  We’ll talk about the weather or 
C                  G          D/F# 
  How the weather used to be 


         G 
And I’ll cater 
             C 
With all the birds that I can kill 
          Am 
Let their tiny feathers fill 
      C 
Disappointment 
G 
Lie down 
          C 
Lick the sorrow from your skin 
            Am 
Scratch the terror and begin 
       C            G 
To believe you’re strong

Bridge 
G            D#            Em               C 
All you ever want to do is drink and watch TV 
C                  G               C 
Frankly that thing doesn’t really interest me 
  G                  D# 
I swear I’m going to bite you hard 
    Em             C# 
And taste your tinny blood 
   D#                 D              Em               Am 
If you don’t stop the self-defeating lies you’ve been repeating 
          C 
Since the day you brought me home 
              G       C F C  
I know you’re strong 
              G       C F C   
I know you’re strong 
              G       C F C   
I know you’re strong 
              G       C F C   
I know you’re strong
