Clenched Teeth

C G D B

[Verse 1]
C              G
Her knees are bare knees
     F#     G           C
Are boys' knees like a lanky teen's
           G               D      
She keeps closed together when in 
        C      Em Bm G
company
    C           D   G  F#m    B 
I heard her explain once why through
   C
 clenched teeth
  D      G                     D 
But I can't remember what for no 
     C        G
more, more

[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
C    D             B           C
Her hair is the color of her mind
C        D   F#m      B        
Breathing from her head like a 
     C
deep fire
               G   D  B      C  
It's all the warmth she has 
        G
inside
                  D      C         
She can't lock up no more
Em


[Verse 2]
C                  D             
When she sleeps, she sleeps, she 
       G
sleeps
                       C
So close to me in my dreams
                      G
She covers her lips round my pink 
ear
         B        F#m  C
And whispers like a child
     G               D   A  Dm  
You burn me while I bury you 
C    B
alive

[Chorus]
C    D             B           C
Her hair is the color of her mind
C        D   F#m      B        
Breathing from her head like a 
     C
deep fire
               G   D  B      C  
It's all the warmth she has 
        G
inside
