Verse 1:
Em               B7        C7
She's out in the sun again
Em            B7       C7
 Cape on her shoulder
Em            D            A
 Told by some distant friend
      C
To be bolder

Verse 2:
F# Em                B7     C7
     She rose with a cavalry
Em                   B7  C7
  And fucks them all over
Em                    D
  Looks just like a debutante
A             C      F#
Swears like a sailor

Chorus:
G          D           C
 Pick your poppies and close both your eyes
            G               D        C
You've been living like this since 1985
            G       D      C
“There's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
         G        D           C
Said the girl who sleeps in a four-poster bed

Verse 3:
F# Em                    B7            C7
     There's room at the top, they said
Em             B7     C7
For jokers and harlots
Em                   D          A C
We're all bound by a common thread

Verse 4:
Em          B7      C7
  Poets and acrobats
Em           B7      C7
  Odd little feelings
Em             D
  Stuck in the mirror again
A       C
 On thе ceiling

Chorus:
G          D           C
 Pick your poppies and close both your eyes
            G               D        C
You've been living like this since 1995
            G       D      C
“There's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
         G        D           C

Bridge:
Bm              Em
Sweet dreams my darling
Bm              Em
Sweet dreams my babe
Bm              Em
Sweet dreams my darling

I pray you never wake

Verse 5:
Em           B7         C7
  John's all alone again
Em            B7    C7
  Picking his poison
Em               D
  Hates his fair-weather friends
A          C
 Still, he joins them

Chorus:
G         D           C
Pick your poppies and close both your eyes
            G               D        C
You've been living like this since 2005
            G        D      C
“Theres's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
         G        D            C
