Sunkeneyed Girl Mike Doughty
[C]Sunken-eyed girl in the sandwich shop
[F]Ladle my soup from the kettle pot, so
[C]Swooning my self with the smolder looks
[F]Parsing that gaze for the right intention.
[A]Sunken-eyed girl don't le[G]t me go
[F]You're the whole world and you barely know so.
[C]You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking
[Bb]And fall down stumb[F]le
[C]All of the things I think and keep thinking
[Bb]And wake up trembl[F]e
[Ab]All
[Bb]These tears are bound to fall.
[C]Sunken-eyed girl on the Ludlow Street
[F]Chunky land once but they swept it up, so
[C]Sing'in my mind signing you're so sweet
[F]I need a bundle of dop just to numb it out
[A]'Cause I'm feeling so good that it hurts[G] my skin
[F]Feeling so good I could do myself in
[C]You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking and
[Bb]Wake up trem[F]ble
[C]All of the blinks I blink and keep blinking and
[Bb]Fall down stum[F]ble
[Ab]All
[Bb]These tears are bound to fall.
[C]I'm [F]
No Pr[C]ize for you [F] [Ab]
[C]No trophy too [F]
[C]Keep walking through [F] [Ab]
[C]And I'm [F]
[C]Not worth a dime [F] [Ab]
[C]I'll drag you down [F]
[C]Don't waste your time [F] [Ab]
