Braille Ukulele chords by Regina Spektor

Intro:
Ab Eb Fm7 Eb x2
Verse 1:
Ab              Eb
She was lying on the floor and counting stretch marks
Fm7             Db
She hadn't been a virgin and he hadn't been a god
Ab        Eb
So she names the baby Elvis
Fm7          Db
To make up for the royalty he lacked

Chorus:
Ab           Eb
And from then on it was turpentine and patches
Fm7            Db
From then on it was cold Campbell's from the can
Ab              Eb
And they were just two jerks playing with matches
Fm7           Db
Cause that's all they knew how to play

Instrumental:
Ab Eb Fm7 Eb x2
Verse 2:
Ab                  Eb
And it was raining cats and dogs out side of her window
Fm7                 Db
And she knew they were destined to become
            Ab
Sacred road kill on the way
               Eb        Fm7
And she was listening to the sound of heavens shaking
           Db        Ab
Thinking about puddles, puddles and mistakes

Chorus:
        Eb
Cause it's been turpentine and patches
   Fm7      Db
It's been cold, cold Campbell's from the can
Ab             Eb
And they were just two jerks playing with matches
 Fm7         Db     Gb
Cause that's all they knew how to play

Verse 3:
Ab        Eb
Elvis never could carry a tune
Fm7                Db
She thought about this irony as she stared back at the moon
Ab         Eb             Fm7
She was tracing her years with her fingers on her skin
        Db
Saying why don't I begin again
Ab   Eb
With turpentine and patches
Fm7       Db
With cold, cold Campbell's from the can
Ab             Eb
After all I'm still a jerk playing with matches
Fm7               Db
It's just that he's not around to play along
Ab         Eb
I'm still an a**hole playing with candles
Fm7        Db
Blowing out wishes blowing out dreams
Ab          Eb
Just sitting here and trying to decipher
Fm7            Db   Gb
What's written in Braille upon my skin...
