<< Back to Penelope Scott Song List
Version 1
[Spoken]
Some songs sound the way it feels to have a rib out of place
[Verse 1]
Bbm
But I ran all of my errands
Eb
And all of my ribs are quite in
Ab
The animals are quiet
Eb Fm
And all the things are in the bin
Bbm
I put them in there with you here
Eb
When I remove them you'll be gone
Ab
I guess there's nothing to be scared of
C F
I guess there's really nothing wrong
[Chorus]
Bbm
And there's no shame in sleeping later
Eb
There's no shame in sleeping more
Ab C Fm
No shame at all in being such a filthy frigid Lysol-huffing whore
Bbm
When the clock strikes three nineteen
Eb Ab
My words will sink into the sea
Fm Bbm
And I will know for a split second that
Eb Fm
My whole life's ceased to be
Bbm Eb C Fm Db Eb Ab
[Verse 2]
Bbm
The morning I woke up to leave there
Eb
As soon as I opened my eyes
Ab
It hurt so bad that I could taste it
G Fm
So cold it burned all my insides
Bbm
I've never felt anything like it
Eb
Heard my lungs scream like that before
Ab
Felt such a tear in my aorta
C
That it spilled all of the light I ever saw
Fm F
Across the floor
Bbm
I couldn't wrap my head around it
Eb
How such a nightmare could be real
Ab
And despite all of my bullshit
Eb
Nothing could stop it
Fm
Not God, not sex
Not white hot fear
[Chorus]
Bbm
And there's no shame in sleeping later
Eb
No shame at all in sleeping more
Ab C Fm
None at all in being such a goddamn filthy Clorox-huffing whore
Bbm
And there's no shame in sleeping later
Eb
There's no shame in sleeping more
Ab C Fm
No shame at all in being such a filthy frigid Lysol-huffing whore
Bbm
When the clock strikes five nineteen
Eb Ab
I'll watch you slip into the sea
Fm Bbm
And I will feel for a split second that
Eb Fm
Life has ceased to be
Db Ab C Fm Db Eb Ab
