36 Hudson [C#m] in the [A] garage, all sorts of junk [E] in the unattached spare room, dishes [C#m] in the
kitchen sink,
[A] new straw for [B] the old broom, [A] friends [E] who don't have a clue,
[A] [E] well-meaning
teachers.
[A] [C#m] But down in your arms, in your [A] arms, [B] I am a [E] wild creature,
[A] [E]
[A] [E]
[A] [E]
[A] [E] floor two foot high
[C#m] with newspapers, [A] white [E] carpet thick with fat hair, half-eaten [C#m] gallons of ice cream in the
freezer, [A] fresh fuel for the [B] sodium [E] flares.
[A] I write down good [E] reasons to breathe to death
[A] in my [E] spiral ring notebook, [A] but in the [C#m] long tresses of your [A] hair, [B] I am a battling [E] frog.
