So The Fixer finds something to fix

Reminding The Fixer that she still believes

    D#mD#m           BB
And the kids will come by later on

And they'll all pretend nothing is wrong

     F#F#             C#C#
The Fixer washes the grease from his hands

Turns off the light by the basement stairs

       D#mD#m            BB
Kneels down, elbows on the bed next to her

   G#G#
And prays he can find a way

BB             D#mD#m  C#C#
Prays he can find a way to fix her

  BB   G#G#
To fix her

    D#mD#m  C#C#
Oh, to fix her
