[Verse 1]
C                    Em
She built a theatre around your brain
C                                   Em
Made sense of one shot and two shots more
C                           Em      D
She stood for hours in the pouring rain
                      C      Em
What did she do that for?


[Verse 2]
C                              Em
Her first real cigarette, she begs it not to burn
C                       Em
Before you exit the backstage door
C                          Em               D
It's quite a hassle to acknowledge that she's there
                      C     Em
What would you do that for?


[Chorus]
       C                   Em                    D
Your skin looks so filthy now, in that black tee shirt
      C                    Em             D
You watch her satin dress dancing in the dirt
     C                       Em                      D
If there's no love in those bones then man, what's it worth?


[Verse 3]
C                           Em
She romanticized about the things that you would be
C                               Em
Sent you her favorite books you know you'll never read
C                                Em               D
All that she really wants is to forget that you're there
                        C  Em
What would she do that for?


[Chorus]
    C                   Em                    D
Your skin looks so filthy now, in that black tee shirt
      C                    Em             D
You watch her satin dress dancing in the dirt
     C                       Em                      D
If there's no love in those bones then man, what's it worth?

    C                   Em                    D
Your skin looks so filthy now, in that black tee shirt
      C                    Em             D
You watch her satin dress dancing in the dirt
     C                       Em                      D
If there's no love in those bones then man, what's it worth?
