She's the [C] [Bb] [C] horriblest thing, at a place where friends [G] are mean.
While the garbage enforces it's [C] conceals.
And her mirror [F] checks out of the [G] thing.
And her walls have a little [C] more of an ink.
And her books fit just so [G] expertly.
And her cups and saucers get some [C]
sleep.
And [Gm] things get all too [G] gather-ny.
The clicking [C] of the game, returns the [F] [C] horriblest [G] thing.
