Barren Tab par Nicole Dollanganger

Gm                       Dm
Curdled like milk in the summer heat
F
my skull’s gone soft, 
C
my head is spoiled, 
Gm                 Dm
my heart’s a rabid dog trying to 
F                C
put its teeth in you, 
Gm                                   Dm
you thought you saw light but it was forest fires 
F
eating me alive, 
C
my limbs are dead and dry, 
Gm                 Dm
my ribcage cradles dirt and weeds, 
F           C
I’m empty inside. 

      Gm            Dm            F
And I will never be able to love you, 
 C
I couldn’t if I tried, 
   Gm                       Dm
and I will lay down next to you, 
     F                            C
but I fear a dead body would feel warm compared to mine, 
    Gm    Dm    F
cause I’m barren 
C
on the inside, 
    Gm    Dm    F
cause I’m barren 
C
on the inside 

Gm                           Dm
You tried to make love to my empty womb, 
         F
tried to stuff me like a doll 
       C
with pieces of you, 
        Gm                Dm
but it all seeps from my loosened seams, 
F
I took myself apart 
    C
and cut off my strings, 
   Gm
and scraped the remains 
        Dm
from my starving bowels, 
  F                   C
collected them into garbage piles, 
   Gm
to try in bags, 
    Dm
sink in the lake, 
    F                         C
and bury at the bottom all my sad mistakes. 

      Gm            Dm            F
And I will never be able to love you, 
 C
I couldn’t if I tried, 
   Gm                       Dm
and I will lay down next to you, 
     F                            C
but I fear a dead body would feel warm compared to mine, 
    Gm    Dm    F
cause I’m barren 
C
on the inside, 
    Gm    Dm    F
cause I’m barren 
C
on the inside
