[Intro]
G
  You seem kind of wary, or maybe you're weary

[Verse 1]
    Em           D          C                 Em        D        C
And I don't know whether to spend all my salvy, just to let you have me
Em         D           C                  Em         D         C
 And I can hear your pulse, da-dum, da-da-dum from across the room, da-dum, da
    Em            D            C                    Em      D           C
And I've been confined to your cheap turpentine, braved for some kind of high
Em   D           C           Em    D         C
 And all of your actions will seem false honey scented
   Em      D         C                  Em             D         C
Am I being traced or just circumvented? I'll light the camper if you give the answer

[Chorus]
G          D/F#                 Em           C               D
  Kill the lights on this advertisement, why insist on being priceless?
 G                D/F#                    Em               C              D
Oh, my folks rest easy, 'cause they can't see me, they all talk it up but I won't

[Verse 2]
Em     D         C     Em        D     C
 Please, please test me, find me interesting
Em        D            C                      Em       D          C
I know my silence does worse than my violence, still I dare you to try it
Em    D         C  Em   D      C
I was watching you, you never said you weren't meant to
 Em        D              C                                  Em               D            C
Oh, what a scene, what a tease, 'cause it can be bought cheap, what you could do in your sleep
Em       D       C       Em     D               C
  And my lover is doubt, we get along, we know just what to talk about, but
Em       D              C                          Em             D               C
Now this room, it's too loud and I'm drunk on this crowd, and the words are fading in and out

[Chorus]
G          Bm                    Em        C              D
 Douse the flames of my burning frame, let something else entertain
G                Bm                    Em
  And I've heard tale of God's sins in hell,
     C                D             Em C C#dim
So I guess there's no need to be afraid

Em C C#dim

[Bridge]
    Em                  C                     C#dim                                    Em
And I don't think that providence will be well pleased with me, well pleased with me
Em          C               C#dim
I feel so young for all the stupid shit I wish I'd done
    Em                C                C#dim
And I'm so sick with envy for you, your belly full of cheapened fire
   Em     C          C#dim
To render right your, your own desires
Em                C                    C#dim
Who's the painted fool for wanting the likes of you?
Em                     C                   C#dim
You're the burned out has been that I wish I'd been

[Outro]
Em                     C              C#dim
You're the burned out has been that I wish I'd been
