[G] She trying to [F#m] tell us how sad it [F] seems, live [G] your life a prisoner [Am] of a dream.
A very [G] fragile she lost her [D] mind, her life is [Em] precious, the [Am] world is so unkind.
Her eyes are [G] empty as she madly [D] writes, stops in [Em] the morning, [Am] goes till the late at night.

In her [G] stares there's no way [D] out, can't [Em] figure what the dream is [Am] all about.
She's just [G] sleeping out on the [D] street, for a little [Em] money.
Wrap [Am] rags around her feet, around her feet.
