....The tea is on...........the flame is blue......................
this theme is continued through the verse..........
You take your clothes off
Right after school
The tea is on
The flame is blue
And you hope it won't take
All afternoon
The TV's waiting
To talk to you
It's your naked body
On white velour
But there's no feeling
Just weight on you
But you get nauseous now
As he speaks to you
Such proper language
For acts so cruel....
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
then;
fingerpick these chords during the following parts...........
....(G).....Am.............F....
He says "we all follow the rules
.........Am...G...........F..............G......
We can't very well go and break them now can we?
....Am......Em/c......G......F
For you, for you, for you..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
then;
Intro theme is played through this verse....
Your older sisters,
I had them too,
But you're my favorite
You know it's true.
You look like your mother
In that thin disguise
Your parting mouth,
Your shining eyes.
And the way that you hate me
And the length of your hair
It's the reason I make you
It's the bond that we share
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
then, as before, continue picking the G chord until....
.............Am...............F...
Cos you were all trying to endure
...........Am....G......F....................G......
You could easily go and make your own life somewhere
...........Am..........Em/C..........G.......................................................F...
Couldn't you? Couldn't you? Couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you,
you?"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Then finger pick the following chords....
..........Am..G.....F....
With the sun beams bright
....Am....G...F........
You keep your eyes shut
......Am....G....F...
Your alarm clock lies
.......Am.....G..F...
Get to school on time
...F......................Em/C.
But you're a bag of warm fluid
..........................Am...
You're the corpse in the class
...........................F...
You walk so near to your locker
.......................G...
You lay so low in the grass
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
................................Em/C......
Did you get that coat from the principal?
.............................Am....
Did you get that bruise on the bus?
.....................F........
You should wash your hair more
......................G......
You should look more like us.
...............Em/C.......
But I saw you walking once
...................Am..
Under powder blue skies
.............F.......
You looked cold still
.................G..
Your collar was high
...............Em/C.......
And I tried to talk to you
.....................Am..
But you walked right by
......................F.......
I don't know which I said then,
...............G...
"Hello" or "Goodbye"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
..............Am...............F...
And yet we're all trying to be pure
........Am......G....F..............G.....
But it isn't a very easy thing, now is it?
.Am.....Em/C.....G....................F..
To do, To do, To do, To do, To do, To do
then finger pick chords Am, Em/C, G and F
randomly saying this over them.....
Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it?
