[INTRO]
[C#m] [E] [F#m] [A]
[VERSE 1]
[C#m] So it started in your [E]ovaries
[F#m]
[A] stone, [A] seedling
Our [A]bones en[C#m]twined
A warning from the [E]orderlies
A [F#m]bulge for bleeding
This would [A]take its [C#m]time
Oh oh [E]oh oh
Ah ah [F#m]ahhhh [A]
[VERSE 2]
[C#m]So it all went down the te[E]lephone
An[F#m]d saw me clearly
All [A]of nine [C#m]years old
Calmly cast in Styr[E]ofoam
In[F#m] my Tony Lamas
When the sh[A]ock takes[C#m] hold
Oh oh [E]oh oh
Ah ah [F#m]ahhhh [A]
[CHORUS]
[A] Mom there are [C#m]hurdles here
that I [Dmaj9]cannot seem to [A]clear
Dad there are [C#m]demons round
[G#] I know I said that I
I said I'd be alright
I [A]lied I [E]lied I [A]lied I [B5]lii[C5]iii[C#m]iiiied
[E] [F#m] [A]
[VERSE 3]
[C#m]So fix your brood and bell[E]y now
Ge[F#m]t your fingers ringing
Get [A]your lun[C#m]gs unstayed
It'll eat you from [E]the inside out
Ti[F#m]ll it comes out screaming
Till it all[A] falls aw[C#m]ay
Oh oh [E]oh oh
Ah ah [F#m]ahhhh [A]
