Intro: A D Gbm E

Verse 1:
A            D                Gbm                    E
My day is so mundane, I don't think I left the house
A              D                Gbm                     E
Drank a pot of coffee, tried to write, nothing came out
A                 D                  Gbm                   E
Somehow, it's the weekend, I'm still bored out of my skull
    A             D           Gbm             E
And I went to the party but only on principle

Pre-chorus:
  D               A
Empty, look at me

Chorus:
      A                  A     Gbm                    E
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
       D                     E       A              D    E
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
      A                    A        Gbm                    E
I'm a sad shell of a woman and I've got maggots for brains
           D                         E
But that's just a thing that happens when my
A        D    E     A   A    Gbm
 When my baby goes away
             E     D   E
When my baby goes away
A         D   E
 He goes away

Verse 2:
A                D              Gbm                       E
Everything feels moldy like the fruit that's in my fridge
    A                 D             Gbm                 E
And everything that's funny, I wish I could tell to him
    A               D                 Gbm              E
And sometimes, at a low point, I even wish for tragedy
       A                D             Gbm                  E
'Cause I know he'd come over and take real good care of me

Pre-chorus:
        D                    A
It's so weird, he's not here

Chorus:
      A                  A     Gbm                    E
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
       D                     E       A              D    E
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
      A                    A        Gbm                    E
I'm a sad shell of a woman and I've got maggots for brains
           D                         E
But that's just a thing that happens when my
A        D    E     A   A    Gbm
 When my baby goes away
             E     D   E
When my baby goes away
A         D    E
 He goes away, oh

Bridge:
A         A    Gbm
 What can I    do
E            D
But think of you?
E            A         D     E  A
But think of you? (But think of you?)
         A    Gbm
What can I    do
E            D
But think of you? (All I can do)
E            A         D     E
But think of you? (But think of)

Chorus:
      A                  A     Gbm                    E
I'm a zombie in my body, I'm a train off of the track
       D                     E       A              D    E
I feel dirty, I feel rotten, and the colors are all flat
      A                    A        Gbm                    E
I'm a sad shell of a woman and I've got maggots for brains
           D                         E
But that's just a thing that happens when my
A        D    E     A
 When my baby goes away

What can I    do (When my baby goes away)
E            D
But think of you?
E            A                   D    E     A
But think of you? (Away, when my baby goes away)
         A    Gbm
What can I    do (When my baby goes away)
E            D
But think of you?
E            A          D E A
But think of you? (Away)
