Some of them are really quite attractive as you see

Some are truly hideous, I'm sure that you'll agree
       Em                A7             D
While others still look rather quite a lot like you and me

But you mustn't let them fool you,    just one more rule

You shouldn't look this one too long in the eye

These ain't no ordinary girls, and we've a steady supply

For a penny more, go on and ask, we have nothing here to hide.

Quiet down! You, sir?

If insanity's primarily a femininish malady,

And no one's doubting that for it's a scientific fact,

Then according to the medics, are they faultier genetics?

Are they born with this disease, or is it something they contract?

It's all to do with reproductive organs

And they're always ovulating by the cycle of the moony

I have a question (shoot!)
                E7
Has any patient ever been released
           A7                             D
Would you send her home if her bizarre behavior would decrease?
         Em            A7         D
For the good of our society, they oughtn't reproduce
               E                            A7
So while they may pretend propriety, we'll never let them loose

Some are born mad
Some achieve madness
Some have madness thrust upon them
This is the real thing my friends, 100 percent, authentic, mentally-ill
Except no imitations
For a little extra on the side, you can arrange
For a slightly more intimate encounter, wink wink
For a tuppence, just a tuppence, a handful of pills to feed the inmates
We've got pills for depression, obsession, agression, possession, indiscretion,
But there's a bloody pill for everything nowadays

How big is a lady's brain?
             Em         E7               D7
It's really very, very small, a simple thought is quite a strain

This seems just a bit inhumane
             E              E7               D7
It's just a simple little shock, it doesn't cause her any pain

Which, as we've proven, haven't any souls at all.

The only bits that aren't inferior are bosom and posterior

And these are only useful in a seedy music hall

They don't bite, well they might

I say this one does look hungry tonight

So get your picture with an inmate

But be sure she's locked up tight

They're practically wild sir

    Protect your child sir

They don't recall the taste of freedom

They're just happy if we feed them
              Em             A7
So point and laugh, it isn't bad
               D
They oughtn't mind because they're mad!
        E                                A7
If you haven't got a dime, toss us your pearls

You're welcome to enjoy

So ladies, let this be a lesson to you, keep your hair uncut

Your corsets tight, your morals high

Your knitting neat, your yappers shut

One foot in front of the other foot

In front of the one foot in front of the other foot

G                             C
    I've been in chains since I was nothing but a kid
Em                          D
    We don't know freedom, not quite sure if we ever did
G                             C
    Now that we've found it, how do we make use of it
Em                         D
    We've been committed, now to what do we all commit?
G                           C
    I used to have a home, now I don't even have a name
Em                     D
    I'm nothing but a number, here we are all the same
G                           C
    We've lost so much, so many of those we love are dead
Em                      D
    How do I get these memories out of my fucking head?

    How do we bear this burden far too much to carry?

    How do we change the prison to a sanctuary?
G                             C
    We've been kept from the light, no one ever gave a damn
Em                     D
    If I've no one to fight, how do I know who I am?

G                        C
    We waged a war with hell, and look, we still survive.
Em                       D
    But just because we live does not mean that we're alive.
G                         C
    We've won the final round, but how to enjoy the win?
Em                          D
    When we've been broken down and we'll never know what could've been

 D                             G
Heaven help us, where do we begin?

Fight Like a Girl

#This is basically what I managed to learn via a guitar tab - changing the E7's to a Em 'cos I thought it sounded a wee bit better. I don't know how to do the little bit where she's talking at the beginning though >.<

This is your mission

Well, I hope that you do

This is your story
Em                    Am
Should you choose to remember

You've given me a reason

To let it die
G       Am
Let it die
      F            G              F
Like all the words irrelevant and clean
     F                G                C
Like all the girls before me, have you seen


          C
Somebody walking
Em                      Am
back from Hell on their own
         F            G
Well, I hope that you do

C
Why are we talking
Em               Am
As if you didn't know
            F         G
Well, they know about you


      C         C7

You've given me a reason

Let it die

Like all the words irrelevant and strange
     F                G                Am
Like some ancient Prokofieff arrangement


*Now you gotta repeat F-G-Am a few times, and when you feel like singing words again you play

Thank God I'm pretty 
                             Am
The occasional free drink I never asked for
                               Dm
The occasional admission to a seedy little bar
Fm                   G7
Invitation to a stranger's car
     C
I'm blessed
                                      Am
With the ability to render grown men tongue-tied
                       
Which only means that when it's dark outside
  Dm                               Fm
I have to run and hide can't look behind me
       G7      C
Thank God I'm pretty

Thank God I'm pretty
                                     Am
Every skill I ever have will be in question
                                      Dm
Every ill that I must suffer merely brought on by myself
            Fm                 G7
Though the cops would come for someone else
    C
I'm blessed
                                               Am
I'm truly privileged to look this good without clothes on
                                                 Dm
Which only means that when I sing you're jerking off
                            Fm
And when I'm gone you won't remember
G7                Am
Thank God I'm pretty

Thank you God
F   G
Oh, oh 
 
            Dm             G
and when a gaggle of faces appears around me
      C                          A
It's lucky I hate to be taken seriously
         Dm                                G7
I think my ego would fall right through the cracks in the floor
       C                              A
If I couldn't count on men to slap my ass anymore
          Dm                          G7
I know my destiny's such, that I must stocking and curl
        C                                A        
So everybody thinks that I'm a fucking suicide girl

Dm     Ddim  G7

          A
Thank you God
                                     F#m
For the occasional champagne I never asked for

The occasional admission to a seedy little bar

Intro:

  C      Am      Em      Dm   G7  (x 2)


C              Am
  The art of suicide
                  Em
  Nightgowns and hair
                Dm          G7
  Curls flying every which where
C               Am 
  The pain too pure to hide
              Em
  Bridges of Sighs
              Dm            G7
  Meant to conceal lover's lies
Em           Am
  Under the arches
                   Em
  Of moonlight and sky
            Am
  Suddenly easy
                 Em
  To contemplate why
       E7
  Why...


  Chorus: 

  Am         Dm
  Why live a life
G                      C
  That's painted with pity
        E7          Am
  And sadness and strife
               Dm
  Why dream a dream
G                       C
  That's tainted with trouble
       E7           Am
  And less than it seems
                Dm
  Why bother bothering
G             C
  Just for a poem
       E7         Am
  Or another sad song to sing
              Dm
  Why live a life
              G
  Why live a life


  C      Am      Em      Dm   G7


C              Am
  The art of suicide
              Em
  Pretty and clean
              Dm        G7
  Conveys a theatrical scene
C             Am    
  "Alas, I'm gone!" she cried
            Em
  Ankles displayed
          Dm        G7
  Melodramatically laid
Em           Am 
  Under the arches
                   Em
  Of moonlight and sky
            Am
  Suddenly easy
                 Em
  To contemplate why
        E7
  Why...

  Why live a life
Am            Dm              
  Why live a life
              G
  Why live a life


  C      Am      Em      Dm   G7    (x 2)


C         Am               Em
  Life is not like Gloomy Sunday
                 Dm
  With a second ending
            G7           C
  When the people are disturbed
             Am             
  Well they should be disturbed
Em                   Dm
  Because there's a story
       G7            C
  That ought to be heard
          Am                Em
  Life is not like Gloomy Sunday

  With a second ending

  When the people are disturbed
              Am
  Well they should be disturbed

      G7       C                   Am      Em       Dm   G7    
  That really ought to be learned

C                       Am

Misery Loves Company

The Opheliac Companion

G
Willow, weep for me 
          D
Bow your tallest tree 
             Am
Down to the infamous hands 
           C             D
Of someone no one understands 
          G
I'm not unique in this 
               D
It's based on none but my mistake
           Am
At night I lie awake 
             C                  D
Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break 

      Am
It's cruel, I know 
               D
At least they tell me so 
              Am                            G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 
                            C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 
     D
Oh, willow 

        G
That I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours 

         G
Willow, weep for me 
            D
Don't think I don't see
               Am
This life I'm living in two
                C               D
But still it's something I must do
          G
I'm not unique in this 
           D
Nor am I special, sweet or kind 
           Am
I court a thousand smiles 
       C              D
Yet I keep my own to hide behind

      Am
It's cruel I know 
               D
At least they tell me so 
              Am                            G
Well someone lock me up and throw away the key 
                            C
Because I'm not ashamed, oh no 
     D
Oh, willow 

        G
That I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours

  Am            G
Slander and dissention 
         D               Am
They're parlour games to me 
            G                 D
Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention 
Am                  G
You say they never hurt you 
    D                Am
No consequence, I'm happy 
                    G
We're much too far above it all 
    D                  Am
But oh no, that's not true 
                                  Em
These wicked pastimes take their toll 
                               Am
These tyrant vices break your soul 
                      Em
Deliver me from all I am 
           G
And all I never want to be 
Am
I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow)
  D
Doubt me not 
    C                  E
Rewrite this plot for all to see 


       G
And I only write love songs 
     D
To those whom I don't love 
        Am
I only reach for him 
               C               D
Who's tied to someone else's glove 
              G
That which I hold inside 
         D
Which I admire and deride 
            C                D
Which I protect and hide is yours

Am          G               D                 Am
Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close 
        G              D                 Am
Let me harmonize with all that's good in you 
            G            D
Share your sympathy and weep for me 
     Am
Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken 
 C                 D
Make me pure and start my song anew 

G  D  Am  C  D

       G
For I only write love songs

To those whom I don't love

I only reach for him

Which I admire and deride

Is yours, is yours

Manic Depression

Laced/Unlaced 

Em
How old are you?
                Am
I'm older than you'll ever be
           D
I've been dead a thousand years
               C
And lived only two or three

I don't mind telling you
             Am
My life was ended by your hand

Em
Thank you, kind sirs
                           Am
You've made me what I am today
     D
A bundle of broken nerves
    C
A mouthful of words
            Em
I'm still afraid to say
         Am
I don't mind telling you
             D
Now that I'm old enough to love
C
I couldn't begin to even if

My pretty life depended on it

And funny thing, it does

4 O'Clock EP

G     Bm
In a courtyard
Em        Bm
Used to sing as loud as she could
G            Bm
Locked away here
Em             Bm
She's been quiet, lovely and good

C                D
But no one listens now
Bm 
She lost her voice
C
She had no choice

CHORUS

Em    C                    D
If you sing loud and clear
Em
Someone passing by will surely hear you
Em      C           D
No you can't be afraid
Em
If you ever want somebody near you
Em    C                    D
If you sing loud and clear
Em
Someone passing by will surely hear you
Em       C           D
No you can't be afraid



G            Bm
Tore the curtain
Em        Bm        
Put her hand outside of the frame
G         Bm
Let her hair down
Em      Bm
Sat all day and nobody came

C                   D
But when the sun went down
Bm
The stars came out
C
She heard them shout

CHORUS

Instrumental: Em C D (as chorus)

C                   D
But when the sun went down

Bm
The stars came out
C
She heard them shout


CHORUS 

End on Em, or however you'd like. :)

Am    
Show your face
       C
Don't hide

Take off the mask now
F
Underneath is a deep dark secret
Am             C
Take me for a ride

Upon your white horse
F
Take your love

'Cause I don't want to keep it

Am
I am out of place
 F
And honey you are out of Time
Am             C
I'd tell your fortune
         E
But the words don't rhyme

               F     C
I'm not your chambermaid
        E      Am
You're not my lord
               F        C
All the fine games we played
      E       Am
Have left me bored
                 F              G
I never want to see you come around my castle
          E           Am
'Cause I just can't afford to love you
F
I'm not your chambermaid
E              Am
You're not my lord

Am              C
Tell me what I have to do to make you
F
Understand it's a lost cause, lover
Am                   C
Tell me while you're at it how it feels to
F
Hold me close when you've been thinking of her
Am               C
I don't want to hear you say you love me
F
You've been gone such a long time
           Am
Won't you turn around
   C
Before I have to see this
 F
Face I once adored
           Am
Don't you see?


I am out of place
 F
And honey you are out of Time
Am             C
I'd tell your fortune
         E
But the words don't rhyme

Have left me bored
                 F              G
I never want to see you come around my castle

'Cause I just can't afford to love you
F
I'm not your chambermaid

You're not my lord

You have no hold over me
                F                  C
What's in your cards, now? let me see
               E
I hope you've got what you wanted
         Am                          E
There's just one thing I know will never be...


               F     C
I'm not your chambermaid
        E      Am
You're not my lord
               F        C
All the fine games we played
      E       Am
Have left me bored
                 F              G
I never want to see you come around my castle

Juliet

Am
How do I save you from a fate so sweet
                             F C    G
As being torn to pieces by a loving hand
                         Am
How do I save you from a voice so soft
                            F    C    G
As that which acquiesces to your each demand
                       Am
How do I look upon the eyes I love
                                F       C     G
And send them down this path, I know it isn't right
                     Am
How do I make you realize my love
                                F         C      G
That there is more to fear than strangers in the night

Chorus:
 
C   G    F    G
How do I save you
C   G    F       G
How do I set you free
Am         C               F      G
Behind the curtain waits a darker world
           C        G
If I can't make you leave
          F        G    Am
How can I save you from me

Am | F | C | G

                          Am
I think you've had enough experience
                         F C        G
To differentiate between a heart of gold
                            Am
And what you cradle in your gentle arms
                        F    C       G
Can you not recognize a soul already sold
                           Am
How do I save you from the things I've been
                            F       C     G
I can't deny the past, it's written on my face
                           Am
How do I save you from the mess you're in
                      F          C         G
When I can't make you leave this torturous embrace

I wouldn't know 'cause I like to sit

Asus2		     B7
Upon the floor, yeah upon the floor

E5
If you like we could play a game

E5
Let's pretend that we are the same

E5
But you will have to look much closer

Asus2		     B7
Than you do, closer than you do

Asus2		     B7
And I'm far too tired to stay here anymore

Asus2		     B7
And I don't care what you think anyway

Asus2		     B7
'Cause I think you were wrong about me

E5
I know you've got it figured out

E5
Tell me what I am all about

E5
And I just might learn a thing or two

Asus2			B7
Hundred about you, maybe about you

E5
I'm the end of your telescope

E5
I don't change just to suit your vision

E5
'Cause I am bound by a fraying rope

Asus2			B7
Around my hands, tied around my hands


Asus2			B7
And you close your eyes when I say I'm breaking free

Asus2			B7
And put your hands over both your ears

Asus2			B7
Because you cannot stand to believe I'm not

Asus2			B7
The perfect girl you thought Well what have I got to lose


E		B7
And what if I'm a weeping willow

C#m		A
Laughing tears upon my pillow

E		B7
What if I'm a socialite

C#m             A
who wants to be alone

E		B7
What if I'm a toothless leopard

C#m		A
What if I'm a sheepless shepherd

E		B7
What if I'm an angel without

C#m             A
wings to take me home

D - B7 - E

C#m	  A
You don't know me

E	B7
Never will, never will

C#m	  A
I'm outside your picture frame

E	B7
And the glass is breaking now

C#m	  A
You can't see me

E	B7		D
Never will, never will

D
If you're never gonna see


E		B7
What if I'm a crowded desert

C#m		A
Too much pain with little pleasure

E		B7
What if I'm the nicest place

C#m		A
you never want to go

E		B7
What if I don't know who I am

C#m		A
Will that keep us both from trying

To find out and when you have

Be sure to let me know

What If

Enchant

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah,

F            G
Long distance, I need you

When I see potential I just gotta see it through

If you had a twin, I would still choose you
C                           Em7
I don't wanna rush into it, if it's too soon

Sorry if I'm way less friendly

I got n____s tryna end me,

Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
C                                Em7
How many more shots until you're rollin'?
F              G
We just need a face to face
C                    Em7            F
You could pick the time and the place
               G
You spent some time away
C                Em7
Now you need to forward and give me all the...

and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety

to remind yourself that you forgot

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty

the way you are leaves me counting the days

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Gonna Be A Long Time

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
