CC7/Ab
You can tell
C/F
from the scars on my arms
and the cracks in my hips
C/Ab
and the dents in my car
and the blisters on my lips
DF
that i'm not the carefullest of girls
you can tell
C/F
from the glass on the floor
and the strings that're breaking
C/Ab
and i keep on breaking more
and it looks like i am shaking
D
but it's just the temperature
F
and then again
CF
if it were any colder i could disengage
D
if i were any older i would act my age
F
but i dont think that you'd believe me
CF
it's not the way i'm meant to be
D
it's just the way the operation made me
and you can tell
C/F
from the state of my room
that they let me out too soon
C/Ab
and the pills that i ate
came a couple years too late
DF
and ive got some issues to work through
there i go again
CF
pretending to be you
make-believing
Am
that i have a soul beneath the surface
E
trying to convince you
F*
it was accidentally on purpose
CC7/AbDb
i am not so serious
Eb
this passion is a plagiarism
Bb
i might join your century
Db
but only on a rare occasion
Db
i was taken out
Eb
before the labor pains set in and now
Bb
behold the world's worst accident
F
i am the girl anachronism
CCCC7/Ab
and you can tell
C/F
by the red in my eyes
and the bruises on my thighs
C/Ab
and the knots in my hair
and the bathtub full of flies
DF
that i'm not right now at all
there i go again
C
pretending that i'll fall
F
don't call the doctors
DF
cause they've seen it all before
they'll say just
CF
let her crash and burn she'll learn
D
the attention just encourages her
and you can tell
C/F
from the full-body cast
that you are sorry that you asked
C/Ab
though you did everything you could
like any decent person would
DF
but i might be catching so don't touch
CF
you'll start believing youre immune to gravity and stuff
don't get me wet
DF
because the bandages will all come off
and you can tell
C/F
from the smoke at the stake
that the current state is critical
C/Ab
well it is the little things, for instance:
C/F
in the time it takes to break it she can make up ten excuses:
please excuse her for the day, its just the way the medication makes her...
CC7/AbDbEb
i dont necessarily believe there is a cure for this
BbDb
so i might join your century but only as a doubtful guest
DbEb
i was too precarious removed as a caesarian
Bb
behold the worlds worst accident
F
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
Bb
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
F
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
Bb
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
F
i am the girl...
F
i am the girl...
i am the girl...
F F*
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
