[Intro] 
Em    Am     Em     Am
[Verse 1]
 EmBack when she was a girl there Amwas a plan to see her through her Emlife:
Get married, settle down and Amhave some kids and be a good houseEmwife
But she would go to bed at Amnight, with Day-Glo stars and fairy Emlights
Stuck on the ceiling of her Amroom as she dreamed of another Glife.
[Chorus]
Now it’s too Clate to go back Ghome, it’s sacchaCrine and siliEmcone, for a Cbroken Barbie doll
 GIt’s sleeping Cpills and alcoGhol, and nights she’d Crather not reEmcall for a Cbroken Barbie doll.
Em   Am
[Verse 2]
 EmAnd though the hands that played with Amher were cold, she let them drag her Emdown
And as her cardboard world beAmgins to fold, she’s lying on the Gground.
[Chorus]
Now it’s too Clate to go back Ghome, it’s sacchaCrine and siliEmcone, for a Cbroken Barbie doll
 GSleeping Cpills and alcoGhol, and nights she’d Crather not reEmcall for a Cbroken Barbie doll.
[Verse 3]
 AmHer mother writes her every Cweek, she says she’s Amworried for her Emhealth
Her dad says she’s finding her Gfeet, but now she’s lying on the Amshelf
Like faulty goods that are reCmturned, her pretty fingers are all Emburned.
Em   Am
[Chorus]
 GNow it’s too Clate to go back Ghome, it’s sacchaCrine and siliEmcone for a Cbroken Barbie doll
 GSleeping Cpills and alcoGhol, and nights she’d Creally rather not reEmcall for a Cbroken Barbie,
Broken Barbie Emdoll.
[Outro]
CBroken Barbie, broken Barbie Emdoll.
For a Cbroken Barbie, broken Barbie Emdoll.
CBroken Barbie, broken Barbie Emdoll.
For a Cbroken Barbie, broken Barbie Emdoll.
CBroken Barbie, broken Barbie Emdoll.
