[F#m] [G]
[A] [B] In one informal accident [G] she bought herself a mobile [D] home
[A] So she could get [G] some enjoyment out of being [Bm] alone
No one could say she [D] was left up on the shelf
[A] She appeared against the world, kids, you mumbled to yourself
[D] [Bm] When [Em] the world falls apart, [A] some could [Bm] fly in flight
[G] And by starved [A] tears, swam down these [F#] pipes
[B] She ran away from [G] home in her [D] mother's horse [C#] cart
[A] She was married, [G] she was even in [Bm] charge of evil
[A] [G]
[D] One of those [A] blokes, the silly one, he laughed at his [B] own jokes
He said the war [D] takes away [A] and when there wasn't a war, he left anyone
[G] [E] [G] [B]
When [Em] the world falls apart, [E] some could fly in [B] flight
[G] And by [A] starved tears, swam [Bm] down these pipes
[B]
[G] On a week in Paris, when I [D] hit you with my baton
I think [G] I swore, [A] I loved you, I loved you, I loved you too
I feared to make it all okay with [B] you
When one dark night came up [D] from the sea
[A] And poked a hole in her body where no [B] hole could be
[A] [G] He took off, she threw her coat [A] and all the slips go back together
I left her heart [Bm] in pieces in her throat
When the [G] world falls apart, [A] something's dying [B] in flight
[A] She [G] takes off her faux-top's [A] tie and puts it back [B] in its tie
When the world falls [A] apart, something's [Bm] dying in flight
