[Verse 1]
Am
I never done it, only sold it
G C F
To a couple of my friends and now they're telling me that they feel fine
Am
And it's a backwards way of thinking
G C F
But it's all that I got so I will keep it in the back of my mind
Am G
And it's a lonely conversation with a stranger I met
C F
Asking me what I'm gonna do to-night
Am G
But I will never sleep again, so you can come on over
C F
I bet you think we both could work out fine
[Chorus]
Dm F
And it's a phone call, says you hate me
C
Your boyfriend wants to know where I've been
Dm F
But it's a waste of time, you see I've lost weight
C
My bones are practically sticking through my skin
Dm F
And it's a question of religion, a question I want answered
C
An answer that is in myself
Dm F
But I am absent, and I am hollow
C
Most of the time I think I'm someone else
[Verse 2]
Am G
And I am bored, just like a summer cop
C F
Think what I'm doing's gonna make a difference
Am G
And I keep screaming and asking him to stop
C F
But I doubt he will because he never listens
Am G C
My bed is small but I cannot complain because it won't
Em F
it won't make a difference
Am G
You could come over if that is what you decide
C
And we could both stay up
Em F
Try to watch the sun rise
[Chorus]
Dm F
And it's a phone call, says you hate me
C
Your boyfriend wants to know where I've been
Dm F
But it's a waste of time, you see I've lost weight
C
My bones are practically sticking through my skin
Dm F
And it's a question of religion, a question I want answered
C
An answer that is in myself
Dm F
But I am absent, and I am hollow
C
Most of the time I think I'm someone else
[Interlude]
Am G C (x2)
[Bridge]
Dm
But it's a phone call (it's a phone call),
Em F
says you hate me (why do you hate me?)
C
Your boyfriend wants to know where I've been (why do you hate me?)
Dm
But it's a waste of time
Em F
You see I've lost weight
C
Oh, well my bones are practically sticking
C
Practically sticking through my skin
Dm F
Through my skin (through my skin)
C
Through my skin (through my skin - why do you hate me?)
[Interlude]
Dm F C (x2)
[Chorus]
Dm F
And it's a phone call, says you hate me
C
Your boyfriend wants to know where I've been
Dm F
But it's a waste of time, you see I've lost weight
C
My bones are practically sticking through my skin
Dm F
And it's a question of religion, a question I want answered
C
An answer that is in myself
Dm F
But I am absent, and I am hollow
C
Most of the time I think I'm someone else
