[Verse]
F#m      Dmaj7         Aadd11  A   Bm
The phone slips from a loose       grip
F#m      Dmaj7         Aadd11  A   Bm
Words were missed, then some apology
F#m              Dmaj7
I didn't want to tell you this
          Aadd11      A      Bm
No, it's just some guy she's been hanging out with
F#m         D                        Aadd11      A      Bm
    I don't know, the past couple of weeks, I  guess
F#m                Dmaj7
Thank you and hang up the phone
        Aadd11      A           Bm
Let the funeral start, hear the casket close
      F#m               Dmaj7        Aadd11  A  Bm
Let's pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat
F#m                      Dmaj7
The laughter pours from under doors 
        Aadd11     A       Bm
in this house I don't understand that sound no more
F#m           Dmaj7          Aadd11  A   G
    Seems artificial, like a T.V. set
[Chorus]
Bm
Haligh, Haligh, a lie, Haligh
       A
This weight, it must be satisfied
      G
You offer only one reply
    A
You know not what you do
       Bm
As you tear and tear your hair from roots
   A
Of that same head you've twice removed
      G
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
    A
Our love would never die
               Bm
Well, ha ha ha
[Verse 2]
F#m       Dmaj7
I remember everything
      A               Bm
The words we spoke on freezing South Street
F#m                   Dmaj7
   All those mornings watching you
A                 Bm
Get ready for school
F#m                    Dmaj7
You combed your hair inside that mirror
            A
The one you painted blue
    Bm
And glued with jewelry tears
F#m                     Dmaj7
  Something about those bright colors
             A                  Bm
Would always make you feel better
F#m                   Dmaj7
But now we speak with ruined tongues
        A                   Bm
And the words we say aren't meant for anyone
F#m                    Dmaj7
   It's just a mumbled sentence to
  A              Bm
A passing acquaintance, but there was once you
F#m                  Dmaj7               A
You said you hate my suffering, and you understood
     Bm
And you'd take care of me
F#m              Dmaj7
    You'd always be there
      A                    G
Well, where are you now?
[Chorus]
  Bm
Haligh, Haligh, a lie, Haligh
     A
The plans were never finalized
     G
But left to hang like yarn and twine
      A
Dangling before my eyes
       Bm
As you tear and tear your hair from roots
      A
From that same head that you have twice removed
        G
Now, a lock of hair you said would prove
     A
Our love would never die
       Bm
And I sing and sing of awful things
       A
The pleasure that my sadness brings
        G
As my fingers press onto the strings
      A
Yet another clumsy chord
Bm
Haligh, Haligh, an awful lie
       A
This weight would now be satisfied
           G
I'm gonna give you only one reply
   A
I know not who I am
[Bridge]
      F#m            G
But I talk in the mirror
          A            D
To the stranger that appears
                                 Bm
Our conversations are circles
             G                 A
Always one sided, nothing is clear
           F#m          G
Except we keep coming back
          A             D
To this meaning that I lack
                              Bm
He says the choices were given
                   G
And now, you must live them
              A
Or just not live
                 Bm
But do you want that?
