Specimen

Bb
she wears sunglasses
    Gm
to hide the mirror in her eyes
Bb
keeps rocks in her backpack
         Gm
she gets dizzy when she flies
Bb           Gm                                       F
her heart is made of flowers and her hair is made of straw
Gm                                      Eb                 Ebm
she’s never shown her metal bones since all the neighbors saw

Bb                       Eb
She is made of starlight and she does not understand
Gm                 Eb                       Ebm
why mama says she can’t be in the marching band

[Chorus]
Gm
knuckles bruise
Bb
blood runs white
Eb
rap on the glass
                  F

Gm
knuckles bruise
Bb
blood runs white
Continues after the ad
Eb
rap on the glass
                 F

[Verse]
Bb
every damn night
Gm
she’s lying awake
Bb
she’s got no love
Gm
they all say she’s a fake
Bb          Gm                                       F
water will rust up her pipes recycled from the factory
Gm                              Eb                  Ebm
she’s never shed a real tear no she’s just an actor she

Bb                             Eb
keeps her mind locked up tight she wears the keys on a chain
Gm                     Eb                       Ebm
she won't speak a word don't bother asking her name
