Verse 2:
Cmaj7Cmaj7
It's so hard to function
        Cmaj7/A
I feel like my body has died with my
Cmaj7Cmaj7
soul trapped inside
   Cmaj7Cmaj7
This cold death rattle in my chest
        Fmaj7Fmaj7      Cmaj7Cmaj7
feels just like pennies in a tin can
Fmaj7Fmaj7
Rhonda, I wonder how long you will
     Cmaj7Cmaj7
 wait for me
  Fmaj7Fmaj7
Or if you even thought to save the
             Cmaj7Cmaj7
pieces of my shattered ego
    C7/A
These terrible chemical vapors are
cutting up my lungs

Chorus:
Fmaj7Fmaj7       E minor 7Em7
Come on, don't you remember me?
  D#M7       Dm7Dm7
Or have you burned my effigy?
Fmaj7Fmaj7        E minor 7Em7
It floats around my memory like a
D#M7   DmDm
 mannequin adrift at sea
      Fmaj7Fmaj7
I think perhaps things might be better
    Cmaj7Cmaj7
 off this way
