G                         C        G
It happened today now I'm walking away
                      C          D
From these pieces of silver and blue
    C                          G          C
You say you can't see why this happens to me,
           G             D            G
When it's really what's happening to you
             C         G
Now I slept alone on a pallet of stones
                       C       D
Till you moved me from where I lay
    C                G        C
But I can't sleep on imperial sheets
          G          D         G
Where the bed always has to be me

[Chorus]

D                    G
I saw you clearing a space for me
D               G  C
Here in your menagerie
              D          G      C
But I'm gonna dance over broken glass
       G                 D         G
And destroy all of these beautiful things

[Verse 2]

                             C         G
The parties we throw and the people we know
                  C        D
Always make for a good holiday
    C                   G        C
But what'll we do for a table of two
       G           D          G
Lonely people with nothing to say
                            C         G
I'm having it out with that old glass house
                    C          D
And these pieces of silver and blue
    C                     G            C
For I can see what you're wanting from me
    G           D            G
And nothing I'm wanting from you

[Chorus]
D                          G
Blue are the keys that you gave to me
D              G  C
To this old menagerie
              D          G      C
But I'm gonna dance over broken glass
       G                 D         G
And destroy all of these beautiful things
    C         D          G      C
But I'm gonna dance over broken glass
      G                  D         G
And destroy all of these beautiful things
