The Spine Song chords by Cake Bake Betty
Guitar chords with lyrics
and you're down
F
for the count
Am
you are dancing with men
F
going round and around
Am
and you're scared
F
and you're sure
Am
that your spine will dissolve
F
you will fall to the floor
Am
you will take
F
what you need
Am
and the headaches will come
F
but at least you can breathe
Am
as the smoke
F
fills your lungs
Am
we will wait for the day
F
we'll rejoice when it comes
C
on your birthday
G
you woke up
F
the snow was on the ground
G
you opened books and peeked inside
F
they kissed you on your crown
G
with pins in your fingers
F
you held yourself up high
G
the picture peeled the person
F
they let themselves divide
Am
you arrive
F
at the place
Am
it is not what you want
F
but it is what you chase
Am
so you don't
F
have to hold
Am
all of the candles
F
that burn on their own
Am
you will steal
F
all the smells
F
that cut through your nose and inside on your cells
Am
when it's time
F
to escape
F
you realize you've waited until it's too late
C
but your birthday
G
inflated
F
the bones with which you creak
F
they stole your shoes and brought you to
F
the caverns of their teeth
C
you pleaded
G
oh kind sir
F
please let me say goodbye
G
your soul ripped from your stomach
F
you gave an awful cry
F
a cry
F
a cry
F
a cry
F
and when I have died
F
will you use my spine
F
to swing from tree to tree in search of
F
places pleasing to the eye?
F
and when I have died
F
will you use my spine
F
to swing from tree to tree in search of
F
places pleasing to the eye?
F
and when I have died
F
will you use my spine
F
to swing from tree to tree in search of
F
places pleasing to the eye?
F
F
F
G
I said
F
I'm sorry dear
G
I said
F
I'm sorry dear
F
but you don't listen
G
no you don't listen
