Intro Chords: D A G
D A G
Oh what a noble distinguished collection
D A G
of fine little friends you have made
D A G
hitting the tables without you again,
D A G
"no we'll wait no we promise we'll wait"
D A G
well June makes these excellent sewing machines
D A G
out of common industrial waste
D A G
she spends a few months at a time on the couch
D A G
but she's safe she wears shades she wears shades
Em A D A G
oh but no one can stare at the wall as good as you my baby doll
Em A
and you're aces for coming along
D A G
you're almost human, after all
Em A
and you're learning that just ‘cause they call themselves friends
D A G
doesn't mean they'll call...
Em (A)
they made the comment in jest
Em
but you've got the needle
Em A
i guess that's the point of it all
D A G
maybe a week in the tropics would help
D A G
to remind you how nice life can be
D A G
we propped you right up in a chair on a deck
D A G
with a beautiful view of the sea
D A G
but a couple weeks later we came back
D A G
and you and the chair were nowhere to be seen
D A G
you had magically moved to the closet
D A G
eyes fixed to the place where the dryer had been
Em A D A G
oh, but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydoll
Em A
and you're aces for coming along
D A G
you're almost human, after all
Em A
why on earth would i keep you propped up in here
D A
when you so love the
G
fall...?
Em (A)
the pattern's laid out on the bed
Em (A)
with dozens of colors of thread
Em
but you've got the needle
Em A
i guess that's the point in the end
D A G
but it's better to waste your day watching the scenery
D A G
change at a comatose rate
D A G
than to put yourself in it and turn into one of those
D A G
cigarette ads that you hate
D A G
but while you were sleeping some men came around
D A G
said they had some dimensions to take
D A G
i'm not sure what they were talking about
D A G
but they sure made a mess of your face
Em A D A G
but still, no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydoll
Em A
and you're aces for playing along
D A G
you're almost human, even now
Em A
and just ‘cause they call themselves experts
D A G
it doesn't mean sweet fuck all...
Em (A)
they've got the permanent press
Em (A)
and the homes with a stable address
