Tattoo

A           F#              Bm    E
Sadness has filled a lonely place
  A         F#               Bm   E
Before that there was just a hole
   A                 F#            
At least now there's sadness on my 
Bm   E
face
   A             F#                
My lower lip has finally found its 
Bb   E
role

So the wind and the rain and the 
snow
Had no particular place to go
So they thought they'd come and 
spend some time with me
They're better friends than you 
could ever be

[Chorus]
          D    E             A
There's a tattoo, a small tattoo
Continues after the ad
D             E          A
Waiting there unpaid for you
           D                E
And if you ever bump into Unlucky
         A                         
Don't forget who broke your heart 
  F#m
in two
      D                E    
You'd better get there early, 
            A              D
there's a million in the queue
                     E             
Just waiting for the name on their 
D    A
tattoo
[end Chorus]

Emptiness has filled a vacant heart
Finally found a place for it to hide
An as I wander like a fool from bar 
to bar
Empty has become my greatest guide

And the tears and the pain and the 
despise
Looked at me through bankrupt eyes
They had nowhere else that they 
could land
So I invited them to take my bloody 
hand

[Chorus]

   F             Am           E7 
So queuing for a tattoo and I 
              Am
can't decide the name
         F          Am          
I've been wondering night after 
E7    Am
night
          F               Am      
When they put that needle in me 
   E7                  Am
I'll scream your name in pain
     F              Am             
And I hope he spells "you bastard" 
E7    A
right
