Comment: This song is from Mike Doughty's album Smofe + Smang Live In Mpls. This is a
album, but all the music is played by an acoustic guitar with no drums or bass. This
is not for the slightly more electronic normal version.
Capo on 1st fret, all chords in relation to capo.
Power chords recommended
Sunken-eyed girl in the sandwich shop
Ladle my soup from the kettle pot, so
Swooning my self with the smolder looks
Parsing that gaze for the right intention.
Sunken-eyed girl don't let me go
You're the whole world and you barely know so.
You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking
And fall down stumble
All of the things I think and keep thinking
And wake up tremble
All
These tears are bound to fall.
Sunken-eyed girl on the Ludlow Street
Chunky land once but they swept it up, so
Sing'in my mind signing you're so sweet
I need a bundle of dop just to numb it out
'Cause I'm feeling so good that it hurts my skin
Feeling so good I could do myself in
You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking and
Wake up tremble
All of the blinks I blink and keep blinking and
Fall down stumble
All
These tears are bound to fall.
I'm
No Prize for you
No trophy too
Keep walking through
And I'm
Not worth a dime
I'll drag you down
Don't waste your time

*3rd Verse*
Sunken-eyed girl on Delancy Street
Bulletproof glass in the KFC
So, keep the man safe in his paper hat
Keep the wrong hands off the biscut fortune
Sunken-eyed girl don't let me go
You're the whole world and ya' barely know so
I'm
No Prize for you
No trophy too
Keep walking through
And I'm
Not worth a dime
I'll drag you down
Don't waste your time
*Let the Ab ring for a little at the end...*
