Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
All I had hoped for
ch]Am[/ch
I kept inside your car
ch]G[/ch
The rabbit in the barn
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Most of all I wait
ch]Am[/ch
I wait beside the door
ch]G[/ch
I wait beside the door
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Oh, I was wrong
ch]Am[/ch
Trembling in the cage
ch]G[/ch
I was diamonds in the cage
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
In seven hours
ch]Am[/ch
I consider death
ch]G[/ch
And your father called to yell at me
ch]Dm[/ch
"You little boy, you little boy"
ch]G[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oo
ch]Am[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-ah-ah
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oooooooo
ch]G[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oo
ch]Am[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-ah-ah
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oooooooo
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Found out you cheated me
ch]Am[/ch
I ran behind the barn
ch]G[/ch
And cut my hands somehow
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Blood in the meadow lark
ch]Am[/ch
I punched your ears instead
ch]G[/ch
I punched you in the head
ch]Dm[/ch
You only laughed and laughed and laughed
ch]G[/ch
How I was wrong
ch]Am[/ch
tingling from the kill
ch]G[/ch
You tickle me until
ch]Dm[/ch
You devil bird, you evil still
ch]G[/ch
I slept on my arms
ch]Am[/ch
Sleeping on the sill
ch]G[/ch
I was sleeping in the room with you
ch]Dm[/ch
You little boy, you little boy
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
How could you run from me now
ch]Am[/ch
The loneliest chime in the house
ch]G[/ch
The loneliest chime in the house
ch]Dm[/ch
You let it out, you let it out
ch]G[/ch
Come to me Calvary still
ch]Am[/ch
I'm weeding and raking until
ch]G[/ch
I'm bleeding in spite of my love for you
ch]Dm[/ch
It bruised and bruised my will
ch]G[/ch
Counting alluvial plains
ch]Dm[/ch
The breathing inside of the range
ch]G[/ch
You touched me inside of my cage
ch]Dm[/ch
Beneath my shirt your hands embraced me
ch]G[/ch
Come to me feathered and frayed
ch]Am[/ch
For I am the ugliest prey
ch]G[/ch
For I am the ugliest prey
ch]Dm[/ch
Beyond the reckless, reckless praise
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oo
ch]Am[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-ah-ah
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oooooooo
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
You said you'd wait for me
ch]Dm[/ch
Down by the tannery creek
ch]G[/ch
Far out by the clothesline where
ch]F[/ch
We used to kiss behind the sheets
ch]C[/ch
Wrapped in a blanket of red
ch]Dm[/ch
The owl and the tanager sat
ch]G[/ch
The owl and the tanager said
ch]Dm[/ch
One waits until the hour is death
ch]G[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oo
ch]Am[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-ah-ah
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oooooooo
ch]G[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oo
ch]Am[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-ah-ah
ch]G[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Hoo-oo-oo Oo-oooooooo
