Biography:
Lady Lamb the Beekeeper (now known only as Lady Lamb) is the musical moniker of Aly Spaltro. Spaltro began her music career writing and recording songs in a DVD rental store in Brunswick, Maine, using the store as her studio after finishing her midnight shift at the cash register. She anonymously gave out free samples of her first demo CD under the name Lady Lamb The Beekeeper, and quickly gained local popularity.

Am *Riff* F Em x4
Am F Em
I'm a ghost and you all know it
Am F Em
I'm singing songs and I ain't slowing
Am F Em
It was a fragile thing and I goddamn dropped it
Am F G
I picked the pieces up and put them in my pocket
C G F
And I ain't gonna try and win your heart this time
C G F
I've had space to think and I think that I've grown a little wiser
C G F
I'm looking for a new muse, you have only made me tired.
C G F
Call your bluff up on the telephone and jam-jar my blood
C G F
This is my loss of limb, my loss of love
C G F
Call your bluff up on the telephone and jam-jar my blood
C G F
This is my loss of limb, my loss of love

Your hips stood out like confidence, you were naked as a newborn in the snow and you
wanted it so.

That's precisely how you wanted it
Am
And now your love is writing words on the wall
F
with the meat of a nectarine
G F G
That she picked earlier that morning in the orchard
Am
And you are on the street, a chest of drawers free
F
While the skeleton parade marches past you
G
Carrying bird balloons
F G
They fly backwards and forwards
Am F G
The streets can be eerie, streets can be dreary
Am
It's as if leprosy, it landed on the moon
F Em
And it cast a filthy glow in the world and in my room
C G F
So how about I play the harp and you play that piano
C G F
pull the curtains shut and nest like little sparrows
C G F
My limbs, my love are lost on you
C G F
My limbs, my love belong to you.
