Poppy chords by Zee Avi

Chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Novice

My baby he don’t act like himself no more

He lost that
C#C#
smile I
F# minorF#m
use to
B minorBm
adore

He spend
G#G#
his nights slapping his veins
F#F#
He lost that glow he used to have on his
G#G#
face

F#F#
Empty, burned
BB
bottle on the carpet
G# minorG#m
My

E MajorE
baby lying beside
C# minorC#m
it

Tin foil
BB
and melted sugar everywhere

He said his
C# minorC#m
provider was his
BB
pharmacist


A#mA#m
friend

Ben

I swear I’m gonna kill him
F#F#
because
I swear I’m gonna kill him because because because

The
BB
poppy took my
G# minorG#m
baby away from
E MajorE
me

The poppy
C# minorC#m
took my
BB
baby away from me
G# minorG#m
The poppy
E MajorE
took my baby
C# minorC#m
away from me

The
D#mD#m
poppy took my baby
E MajorE
away from me
C# minorC#m

My baby used
D#D#
to repeat the news

And now he talks about dragons on
D#mD#m
the

wall

Used to love German expressionism
F#F#
films
BB
Now he drinks
G# minorG#m
until he falls

I was
C# minorC#m
confused,

F#F#
didn’t


BB
know what to do

So I
E MajorE
called


D#mD#m
his momma, had her
BB
come on over

She got him off
D#mD#m
the ground, started slapping him around

And now she
E MajorE
cried, she said she said she
BB
said

The
G# minorG#m
poppy took
E MajorE
my baby away from me
The poppy took my baby away from me

The
C# minorC#m
poppy took my
BB
baby away from me

The poppy took my
C# minorC#m
baby away
BB
from

me

The poppy
D#mD#m
took


E MajorE
my baby away
C# minorC#m
from

me
BB
