[B] Rings round his eyes, tracks down his arm His fans are confused [E] and his friends are [Gb] alarmed
[B] His wife doesn't [Abm] talk, _
[B] hates when he's [Abm] gone _
[B] Counts every [Abm] skirt in his [E] new _ _ [Gb] entourage
And [E] they're all _ _ gossamer [Gb] _ thin, left [B] of the dial _ _ _
[Ebm] _ _ Bohemians
And [E] they _ dance, tournament [Gb] _ style _ Twirl [B] round the room, _ curtsy [Abm] and smile
_ And they [B] sit at [Abm] his feet, [B] _
read poetry _ [E] And swoon [Gb] _ with [E] each word [Gb] he _
[B] _ speaks

likes the new [Abm] Pope, [B] she's not scared of [Abm] hell [B] They meet [Abm] once a week [E] at a secret [Gb] _ motel
[B] She kisses [Abm] his neck, [B] she plays with his hair Her screams sound [Abm] like pleasure, [E] her moans like [Gb] despair
And [E] they're spread _ gossamer [Gb] _
thin _ Pushed to [B] the edge, _ frayed [Ebm] at the _ ends
And it's [E] no _ business [Gb] of mine If they can love [B] more than one [Abm] at a _ time

hard But [Abm] they must [E] _
risk [Gb] _ it [E] _
all [Gb] _ for [B] _

[B] don't want to eat or get out of bed I try to [Abm] recall what [E] the therapist [Gb] _ said
[B] _
Ego [Abm] and head, [B] the essential [Abm] self You are who you are and [E] you are [Gb] someone else
But I'm [E] _ warm _ gossamer [Gb] thin Like delicate [B] _ arch carved by [Ebm] the wind
_ There's [E] a glass _ psyche [Gb] at stake Throw me [B] a brick, _ see [Abm] if it _ breaks _
[B] Cause the mind and the [Abm] brain _ [B] aren't quite the [Abm] same But they [E] both _ [Gb] _
want [E] _ _ [Gb] out of [B] this place
