Itchy Teeth

Marika Hackman


Tom: C

Am           C
   I've been left

Em            G
   To lick my wounds

        Am C
For too long

        Em
Down to bone



Am           C
   Calloused tongue

      Em
Itchy teeth

      G                 Am C
Metal mouth with rubber gums

             Em G
I can't talk now




[Chorus]

G       Bm/F#  Em
Hold me for an hour

Am      Bbdim7   Bm
Flowers bloom in less

      G          Bm/F#     Em
We'll brace this crumbling tower

    Bbdim7  Bm    C
The harvest of distress



Am        C
   Eke me out

Em         G
   Make me last

       Am     C
I am a broken ship

          Em
A sinking mast



Am               C
   You filled me up
 
             Em
And made the holes

           G
With fingertips

              Am      C
Red nails and cutting words

        Em G
Patch me up




[Chorus]

G       Bm/F#  Em
Hold me for an hour

Am      Bbdim7   Bm
Flowers bloom in less

      G          Bm/F#     Em
We'll brace this crumbling tower

    Bbdim7  Bm    C
The harvest of distress



[Interlude]

Am   C   Em   G  (4x)



[Chorus]

G       Bm/F#  Em
Hold me for an hour

Am      Bbdim7   Bm
Flowers bloom in less

      G          Bm/F#     Em
We'll brace this crumbling tower

    Bbdim7  Bm    C
The harvest of distress
