[Intro] E  A  E  A  B

E
Genevieve lay bleeding in my basement
B                         A
Misconceiving life again
E         C#m             G#m        C#m
Up on the sidewalk, her replacement
B                      A
Waiting to be skinned

E
Bobby wants a lady from the low lands
B                             A
And I'd like to have one too
E         C#m               G#m               C#m
Paul said, "One in the bush worth two in your hand"
B                                        A
Even then you'll find there are too few

E
Genevieve lay dreaming on my ceiling
B                                               A
A thought came, rolling stone, across her mind
E            C#m        G#m      C#m
Looking down with great feeling
B                              A
I'll trade you yours for mine

E
Just try to sing in choirs, hear the old gears grind
B                                                   A
And upstairs they'll say, "There's too much noise"
E          C#m           G#m    C#m
I tell the lady we'll be quiet
B                            A
She knows boys will be boys

( E  B  A  E  C#m  G#m  C#m  B  A )

E
Gene Gene Gene, what's the matter
B                                     A
You'll get your way next time around
E            C#m             G#m     C#m
Subtract the former from the latter
B                                       A
You're fatter than when you were found

E
Genevieve lay bleeding in my basement

( B  A  E  C#m  G#m  C#m  B  A )
