Skinny Knee Bone

            C
Skinny knee bone
                               F
Through it all and end up all alone 
(??)
G
Carve it away until you find
    F                            
The marble girl who’s left behind 
   C
inside
              G
This block of stone


[VERSE 2]
            C
Skinny knee bone
Too far too near the sun your 
         F
engines drawn
G
Jet planes trail across the skies
              F
Your skin and bone across my eyes
    C                              
To far too light to land where you 
     G
were thrown

F
The knee bone’s connected to the jaw
 bone
       C            Am
With a wire, and a cable

            G
We’re gonna run the table (??)
              F
Bet it all on black
              C
Bet it all on black


[BRIDGE]
  Am        Dm
A ship in a bottle
       Am          Dm
Double bet without breaking (??)
  Am        Dm
A ship in a bottle
     C               G
Your heart is in the making (??)


[VERSE 3]
            C
Skinny knee bone
So still inside the silk where you 
     F
were sewn
G                            
All things come to those whose 
            F
weight is not the sum of all they 
ate
    C                              
The finger on the scale was not 
  G
your own

Bet it all on black (Bet it all on 
black)
              F
Bet it all on black (Bet it all on 
black)
              C
Bet it all on black (Bet it all on 
black)
                G
Bet it all on black (together)
