[Verse 1]
A                   Bm
I lit a thin green candle
D                        A
  To make you jealous of me
         A                           Bm
Then the room just filled up with mosquitos
          D                      E
When they heard that my body was free
        F#m                 C#m
Then I took the dust of a long sleepless night
      D                     A
And I put it in your little shoe
Bm                    G
Then I confess that I tortured the dress
         Bm               A              G        A
That you wore for the world to look through,  Ooh

[Verse 2]
A                         Bm
I showed my heart to the doctor
D                        A
He said I just have to quit
        A                    Bm
Then he wrote himself a prescription
         D                   E
And your name was written in it
       F#m                  C#m
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
         D                    A
With the details of our honeymoon
      Bm                            G
Now I hear from the nurse that he’s doing much worse
        Bm           A        G        A
And his practice is all in a ruin

[Verse 3]
     A                         Bm
Oh I heard of a saint who had loved you
     D                        A
So I studied all night in his school
         A                       Bm
Where he taught that the duty of lovers
      D                  E
Is to tarnish the golden rule
     F#m                      C#m
Just when I was sure that his teachings were pure,
      D                     A
He drowned himself in the pool
    Bm                     G
His body is gone, but back here on the lawn
     Bm       A         G        A
His spirit continues to drool,    Ohh

[Verse 4]
      A                  Bm
Oh an Eskimo showed me a movie
     D                 A
He’d recently taken of you
        A                          Bm
And the poor man could barely stop shivering
D                             E
His lips and his fingers were blue
    F#m                          C#m
I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
      D                       A
And I guess he just never got warm
        Bm                           G
But you stand there so nice, in your blizzard of ice
          Bm            A       G             A
Oh please let me back into your storm, please
