Verse 1
 I lit a thin green Acandle
 To make you Bmjealous  of Dme
 But the room just filled up with Amosquitoes
 They Bmheard  that my body was Dfree E 
 Then I took the F#mdust  of a long sleepC#mless  night and I Dput  it in your little Ashoe
 And then I Bmconfess  that I Gtortured  the dress that you Bmwore  for the Aworld  to look Gthrough
 
Verse 2
 I showed my heart to the Adoctor
 He Bmsaid  I just have to Dquit  it
 Then he Awrote  himself a prescripBmtion
 And Dyour  name was mentioned in Eit
 Then he F#mlocked  himself in a library C#mshelf  with the Ddetails  of our honeyAmoon
 And I Bmhear  from the nurse that he's Ggotten  much worse and his Bmpractice  is Aall  in a Gruin
 
Verse 3
 I heard of a saint who had Aloved  you
 So I Bmstudied  all night in his Dschool
 He Ataught  that the duty of Bmlovers
 Is to Dtarnish  the golden Erule
 And just F#mwhen  I was sure that his C#mteachings  were pure he Ddrowned  himself in the Apool
 His Bmbody  is gone but back Ghere  on the lawn his Bmspirit  conAtinues  to Gdrool
 
Verse 4
 An Eskimo showed me a Amovie
 He'd Bmrecently  taken of Dyou
 The Apoor  man could hardly stop shiBmvering
 His Dlips  and his fingers were Eblue
 I supF#mpose  that he froze when the C#mwind  took your clothes and I Dguess  he just never got Awarm
 But you Bmstand  there so nice in your Gblizzard  of ice, oh Bmplease  let me come Ainto  the Gstorm
