That said, here's the song:

B
She could hear them fucking through
Those thin hotel walls
          E
She heard babies crying,
She heard laughter, she heard sirens
B
Red and blue lights flashing
Through those cheap hotel drapes
      E
Blood spilled out on the porcelain
    F#m
The bath tub's over-flowing


E         F#m
Paralytic states of dependency
B          G#m
All waking life's just a living 
dream
E        F#m
Agitated states of amazement
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be

B
Spread out faced down on those
Stained cheap hotel sheets
              E
She spent the last years of her life
Running from the boy she used to be
B
Cut her face wide open
Shaved the bone down thin
            E
Plumped her lips up exaggerated
         F#m
A fucked up kind of feminine


E         F#m
Paralytic states of dependency
B          G#m
All waking life's just a living 
dream
E        F#m
Agitated states of amazement
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be


B
Night time at the hotel there was 
fighting in the hall
           E
Thin chain lock to keep the world 
out
She held her breath till it was gone
B
Standing naked in front of that 
hotel bathroom mirror
          E
In her dysphoria's reflection
          F#m
She still saw her mother's son


E         F#m
Paralytic states of dependency
B          G#m
All waking life's just a living 
dream
E        F#m
Agitated states of amazement
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be
B                            
Never quite the woman that she 
  G#m *
wanted to be


E               F#m              
By the time the ball dropped it 
   E       F#m
was already over
E               F#m              
By the time the ball dropped it 
   E       F#m
was already over
E                      F#m   
No resolutions for the new year 
               B
beginning tomorrow
