[Intro]
C G Am F x2
[Verse 1]
C G Am F
I ain't noth-ing but ribs, knees, and elbows
C G Am F
I'm way too young to be dry, brittle and cold
C E7 F G
I've been wondering how I let her hurl me into madness
C E7 F G
I've been wondering how she bled the child in me away
[Verse 2]
C G Am F
I ve been hammering boards over the windows
C G Am F
I've been nailing the doors to the frames
C E7 F G
I've been wondering how I let her fill my heart with lightning
C E7 F G
Ive been wondering how she led a long haired boy astray
[Chorus]
G G C G Am F
No, I've fought to the man for the last time
F F C G Am F
And I don't understand how a girl so much like rain
C G Am F
can breathe so much fire
[Verse 3]
C G Am F
I've been tapping the walls listening for angels
C G Am F
I've been eyeing the halls spying for ghosts
C E7 F G
And in a shadowy dream, I see her barefoot on the glider
C E7 F G
I try to beg her for peace, I'm just to vague and far a-way
[Chorus]
G G C G Am F
No, I've fought to the man for the last time
F F C G Am F
And I don't understand how a girl so much like rain
C G Am F
can breathe so much fire
[Bridge]
C E7 F G
And in a shadowy dream, I see her barefoot on the glider
C E7 F G
I try to beg her for peace, I'm just to vague and far a-way
[Final Chorus]
G G C G Am F
No, I've fought to the man for the last time
F F C G Am F
And I don't understand how a girl so much like rain
C E7
can breathe so much fire
[Outro]

She breathed so much fire
C G Am Am/G F
How could she see through the flames?
C G Am G/B G Em
How could she see through the flames?
