Intro:

G  C  Em   D
           

Verse 1:
G            C                 Em                    D
My day is so mundane, I don't think I left the house  
G              C                Em                     D
Drank a pot of coffee, tried to write, nothing came out.
G                 C                  Em                   D
Somehow, it's the weekend, I'm still bored out of my skull.
    G             C            Em            D
And I went to the party but only on principle.

Pre-Chorus:
   C                  G
Empty, who can leave?  

Chorus:
      G                        Em
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
   D    C                     D       G             C
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
       G                             Em
I'm a sad shell of a woman, and I've got maggots for brains
             C
But that's just a thing that happens
D       G        C    Bm        G  Em
When my, when my baby goes  away

Post-Chorus:
             D      C  D  G
When my baby goes away.   
         C  Bm
He goes away

Verse 2:
G                C               Em                        D
Everything feels moldy like the fruit that's in my fridge  
    G                 C             Em                   D
And everything that's funny, I wish I could tell to him  
    G                C                  Em              D
And sometimes, at a low point, I even wish for tragedy  
       G                C             Em                   D
'Cause I know he'd come over and take real good care of me  

Pre-Chorus:
        C
It's so weird (Oh), he's not here (Oh)
Chorus:
      G                        Em
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
   D    C                     D       G             C
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
       G                             Em
I'm a sad shell of a woman, and I've got maggots for brains
             C
But that's just a thing that happens
D       G        C    Bm        G  Em
When my, when my baby goes  away

Post-Chorus:
             D      C  D  G
When my baby goes away.   
         C  Bm
He goes away  oh

Bridge:
G            Em               C
  What can I do but think of you?
    D        G
But think of you? (But think of you )
G            Em               C
  What can I do but think of you? (What can I do )
    D        G
But think of you? (But think of)
[Instrumental]
G  D  Em   D  C  D  G
                    

Chorus:
      G                        Em
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
   D    C                     D       G             C
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
       G                             Em
I'm a sad shell of a woman, and I've got maggots for brains
             C
But that's just a thing that happens
D       G        D              G
When my, when my baby goes away  

Post-Chorus:
         D  Em              D     C
What can I do (When my baby goes away) but think of you?
              G                             G
But think of you? (Away, when my baby goes away)
         D  Em              D     C
What can I do (When my baby goes away) but think of you?
     D        G
But think of you? (Awa---y)
