I know you find it hard to smile
   
To keep your happiness in style
   
You pass in silence in the morning
   
You know you shouldn't ever try to ignore me


   
And you look to be pretty nervous
   
Sweaty hands and blood shot eyes
   
So hard to identify you
   
Just a loser in a loser's disguise

*CHORUS*
 
She don't back down
   
And she won't come around here
 
And there's all this talk about dying
  
Man, I don't get it for the life of me


   
With your fingernails painted red
   
And your eyes all ready to wed
   
Decorated from head to toe
   
Like a magician in a talent show

*CHORUS*
 
She don't back down
   
And she won't come around here
 
And there's all this talk about dying
  
Man, I don't get it for the life of me


   
So you've smoked your last cigarette
   
Blindfolded on a train from Tibet
   
Broke your last bottle of wine
   
And unraveled your last ball of twine

*CHORUS*
 
She don't back down
   
And she won't come around here
 
And there's all this talk about dying
  
Man, I don't get it for the life of me


Break...just mess around with the chords
and move up the neck with C a little


*CHORUS*
 
She don't back down
   
And she won't come around here
 
And there's all this talk about dying
  
Man, I don't get it for the life of me


   
Well I know you find it hard to smile
   
To keep your happiness in style
   
Pass in silence in the morning
   
You know you don't need to ignore me

 
Now there's all this talkin' about dying
  
Man, I don't get it for the life of me.
