Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][A][G][A][G]

[Verse 1]
Called to [A]see
if your [G]back [A]was still aligned
And your [G]sheets [A]were growing grass
out [G]of the corners of your [A]bed

[Verse 2]
But [G]you've got too [A]much to
wear on your [G]sleeves
That has [A]too much to do
with [G]me
[A]And secretly I [G]want to bury in [A]the yard
The [Bm]grey remains of a [C]friendship [G]scarred
[A]

[Interlude 1]
[G][A][G][A][G][A]

[Verse 3]
You [G]told us of your [A]new life there
You've got [G]someone
coming [A]'round
Gluing [G]tinsel to your [A]crown
He's got you [G]talking pretty [A]loud

[Verse 4]
[D]Berate, [G]remem[A]ber your ail[G]ing
heart and [A]your criminal eyes
You [G]say you're still in [A]love
And it's [G]true what can be [A]done
It's [Bm]hard to leave all these
[C]moments be[G]hind[D][A]
[G]

[Interlude 2]
[A][G][A][G][A][G][A]

[Verse 5]
[D]Called[A]
[G]to [A]see if your [G]back is [A]still aligned
And your [G]sheets are [A]growing grass
out of the [G]corners of your bed

[Verse 6]
[A]And [G]you've [A]got[G] too muc[A]h
to wear on your [G]sleeves
It's [A]too much to do with [G]me
And [A]secretly I want to [G]bury in the [A]yard
The [Bm]grey remains of a [C]friendship

[Interlude 3]
scarred
[D]
[G][A][G][A]

[Verse 7]
You [D]tested [G]your med[A]al of[G]
doe's skin [A]and petals
[G]Kiss[D]ing [A]the lipless and[G] bleed all the[A] sweetness away
