Bone Structure

G Em C D


[Verse 1]

G                     Em               C             D
Playing scratch offs with the pull tab of a tallboy on your front steps
G           Em           C              D
Helicopters dancing over us, retreat inside
     C
Then we both got sick from the window of a taxi
    G
The driver didn’t mind, so we laughed in the backseat
      Em           D          C           G
In the morning you asked if I took you to bed
         Em     D             C
I said, “When I do, you’ll remember it.”


[Chorus]

     Em    G            Am                       C
Your bone structure was more striking to me than all your lack of empathy
    Em    G         Am                            C
Your bone structure made it so I couldn’t see you were indifferent to me


[Verse 2]

     G                    Em
This coffee’s too strong, I am shaking
C                  D
I guess that’s why I still come here
G                  Em            C                 D
You are day drunk, my salvation, whistling “I’m On Fire.”


[Chorus]

     Em    G            Am                       C
Your bone structure was more striking to me than all your lack of empathy
    Em    G         Am                            C
Your bone structure made it so I couldn’t see you were indifferent to me


[Bridge]

           Am            G         D
We share a twelve dollar bottle of brandy in the parking lot
Am       G           D
Behind a dumpster so everybody else can
     Am                 G          D          Em      D            C
Pretend that they don’t notice and we all can eat our breakfast in peace


[Verse 3]

G                  Em                       C                D
You spit champagne through your front teeth, slap my face and laugh like a
    G                   Em                         C                D
Lunatic in a movie. You cut right through me, come out on the other side


[Chorus]

     Em    G            Am                       C
Your bone structure was more striking to me than all your lack of empathy
    Em    G         Am                            C
Your bone structure made it so I couldn’t see you were indifferent to me
   Em     G             Am                       C
Your bone structure was more striking to me than all your lack of empathy
   Em     G         Am                            C (let it ring)
Your bone structure made it so I couldn’t see you were indifferent to me
