Pick Your Bones chords by Claire Anne Taylor

Intro: A D A E D A E


A
I was sitting on a crate in an alleyway
Suckind on a durrie for smokeo's sake
D
I was watching that smoke snake and coil
A
over rainbow slicks of engine oil




A
That's when her car rolled in
one flat tyre right down to the rim
D

she slammed the door and said you've let me down
A
right when im leaving this shithole town

A
well she followed me back into the bar
past old boys slouching, trying real hard
D
to pretend they didn't see her come in
A
Crowbar Jim giving away everything

E D C G A

A
Then she sat down and ordered a pint of beer
And i was pouring her drink when i happened to hear
D
Ol'Jim braggin to his mates
A
Oh the things I'd do to her back at my place

A
The he grabbed her from behind
and she stood straight up and to my suprise
D
she held her fists up infront of her face
A
stepping side to side with guts and grace

A
Then she stood still and held her ground
said, little man I'm gonna take you down
D
well he roared with laughter till his cheeks went red
A
she hurled a brutal blow to his head

A
He fell to the floor with a heavy thud
holding his nose from pissing blood
D
she stood over him looking down
A
sayin, whose the big man now

A
She said
E
pick your bones
D
up off the floor
A
were gonna dance like you aint never
E
danced before

A
ahyehihi

A
well I've seen alot of biffs in bars over the years
I guess thats just what you get for working here
D
blood knuckle scuffles and all in brawls
A
Oh mate ive seen it all
A
But I tell ya in all my days
I've never seen a women fight quite that way
D
She gave him one hell of a floggin
A
And made a bloody mess of his noggin

A
If only Jim knew what was good for him
he wouldve quit when she started swingin
D
But he crawled to his feet, spittin blood on the floor
A
and she said look who wants a little more

A
well he flung one at her and she doidged it with ease
and with a mighty thump she sent him to his knees
D
I guess in all the comotion nobody soaw
A
her pocket his keys and head for the door

E D C G A

A
Now I've heard whispers from distant towns
some folk say they've seen her driving round
D
in his jet black holden EJ
A
I can still hear her sayin

E
Pick your bones
D
up off the floor
A
we gonna dance like you aint never
A
danced before
E
pick your bones
D
up off the floor
A
were gonna dance look you aint never
E
danced before

A
hiihi ayahiihi

D
