[Verse 1]
[G]He [C]pla[G]yed[C] th[G]e game[C]
[Am]but [G]he failed the test[C]
[G]but he remembers the way[C] of her[Am] hair[G]
and the shape of her [C]breast[Am][G]
he'll tell the world [C]about [Am]it now
[G]in a traveling sho[C]w[Am][G]
like some kind of cir[C]cus[Am][G]
like some kind of cir[C]cus[Am][G]
like a monkey [C]in a zoo[Am][G]
more dead than alive
[C][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 2]
[G]
Total aban[C]don [G]- that far away loo[C]k
[G]where nothing seems t[C]o matter
[G]and nothing seems to [C]cook
[G]but you know her, you lov[C]e
[G]her; you gotta liv[C]e without her
[G]he said I can't live wit[C]hout her
[G]she said too bad about tha[C]t and[G] left
with the [C]undertaker[G][C][Am][C]
[G]now he just sits at the pi[C]ano
[G]singing I'll never grow up
I'll [C]never [G]grow up
more dead than alive
[C][G][C][Am][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 3]
He said what [C]a babe[G]
you oughta see [C]her[Am][G]
I got a picture
[C]and[Am] he w[G]hipped out his wallet
he got a [C]pathetic collage pho[Am]to of [G]him
self in a fashion [C]mall[Am][G]
really [C]sad [Am]- rea[G]lly sad[C][Am][G]
more dead than alive
[C][G][C][G][C][Am]

[Verse 4]
[G]Well I climbed up [C]a mountain[G]
and I dug myself a [C]grave[G]
don't you ever get [C]tired
[G]telling me to behave
[C]and[G] the wild wind
well it's [C]my [G]slave
takes me wherever I'd [C]wanna go
[G]but it always blows me back aga[C]in
[G]well the wild wind it's my fri[C]end
[G]it always blows me back aga[C]in[G]
it was if my skull [C]was bare[Am]
[C]and naked wit[G]hout
a thought [C]to share[Am][G]
till blew one night [C]this wild
[Am]wind[G]
and knocked me back
[C]alive [Am]again[G]
and if I told you [C]this was for real
[G]that I had been living aga[C]inst
my [Am]will[G]
would you laugh and [C]laugh and say
[G]he's not being rea[C]l tha[Am]t way[G]

[Verse 5]
[G]and I stepped in

the record on the radio [C]kept skippin, skippin
[G]I said I pulled up a cof[C]fin[G]
I pulled [C]up a coffin[Am][G]
I pulled [C]up a coffin[Am][G]
I walked up to this psycho
[C]logical [Am]man[G]
I said I got this problem [C]about [G]this coffin
he said here's some [C]cough drops[Am]
[G]I said please don't make
such [C]dumb jokes[Am][G]
this is [C]art [Am]- or[G] is it art or is it sm[C]art
or [G]is it just my [C]heart[G][C][G][C][Am][G]
more dead than alive
[C][G][C]

[Verse 6]
[Am][G]
Little girl when all my [C]tears
[G]have dried
little girl when everything was
[C]going [Am]great[G]

undead white zom[C]bie[G]

Well he played [C]that game[Am]
[G]but he failed the[C] test[Am]
