GThe F6/Gminus is Am7loveless, he G5talks to the G7sus4land
GAnd the Am7leaves fall and the pond oveG7sus4rices
She Gdon’t know the Am7system, plus sAm11/Ghe don’t unGmaj7derstand
She’s got G5all the wrong G7sus4fuses and GspliAm7ces
She’s G5not gonna G7sus4fix it up, G  Am7too easy
[Verse 2]
GThe F6/Gmasking tape Am7tangles, G5it’s sticky and G7sus4black
GAnd the Am7copper proud G7sus4headed Queen Lizzie
GConducts little Am7charges that Am11/Gdon’t get Gmaj7charged back
Well, the G5technical G7sus4ma-----Gnual’s Am7busy
She’s G5not gonna G7sus4fix it up, G  Am7too easy
[Verse 3]
GAnd she G5holds out her G7sus4flashlight and Gshe Am7shines it on me
GShe G5wants me to G7sus4tell her Gwhat the Am7trouble might be
Well, I’m Glearning, It’s Am7peaceful with a Am11/Ggood dog and Gmaj7some trees
