[Verse 1]
D/F#                               
This is the story of your red right

ankle,
D/F#                          G
and how it came to meet your leg
D/F#                        G
And how the muscle bone and sinews 
tangled,
D/F#                         G
and how the skin was softly shed
Em                          A
And how it whispered, oh, adhere to 
me,
Em                       A
for we are bound by symmetry
Em                           A
And whatever differences our lives 
have been,
D                    G    G D/F#
we together make a limb
Em                        A      
This is the story of your red

you never knew 'cause he was dead
D/F#                          
And how his face was carved and 
               G
ripped with wrinkles,
D/F#                     G
in the picture in your head
Em                             A
And remember how you found the key,
Em                     A
to his hideout in the Pyrenees
Em                          A
But you wanted to keep his secret 
safe,
D                    G    G D/F#
so you threw the key away
Em                        A  
This is the story of your gypsy

This is the story of the boys who

who love you now and loved you then

And some were sweet and some were 
                 G
cold and snuffed you,
D/F#                         G
and some just laid around in bed
Em                             
And had crumbled you straight to 
        A
your knees,
Em                      A
did it cruel did it tenderly
Em                                
And some had crawled their way 
         A
into your heart,
D                    G    G D/F#
to rend your ventricles apart
Em                       A
