Verse 1:
D                G
I made my bed in flowers
D                G
Grew basil in my hair
D                      G
I must have walked for hours
D                     G
Halfway to who knows where
D                   G
God knows I'm only human
D            G
I get so inhumane
D              G
So I take my lithium
D                 G
I feel like Kurt Cobain

Chorus:
                          Bm          A
What if I'm nothing but a cardiac-arresting sweetheart
G                         A       Bm
A half run-over cat left in the street
                 A
And you're the maggot craving
G                   A             D
Rotten flesh left outside in the heat

Verse 2:
D                       G
I don't need support 'cause I've got
D            G
My underwire bra
D             G
You're into rigor mortis
D               G
Ain't that against the law?

Chorus:
                               Bm         A
Unless you tell them I'm your cardiac-arresting sweetheart
G                          A    Bm
Half run-over cat left in the street
               A
You're just a maggot craving
G                     A            D
Rotten flesh left outside in the heat

D                          Em
What's your best secret? You can trust me
       D                      G
You're hanging beside me on the same tight clothesline
D                           Em
Here's my best secret: I keep hoping I'm not
Bm                    Gm
Dirty laundry 'til my tears all soak in

You're hanging beside me on the same tight clothesline

Here's my best secret: I keep hoping that I'm not

Dirty laundry 'til my tears all soak in

'Til my tears all soak in
