 G                              D               D Dsus4 D  Dsus2
Her apron strings are trailing out like sparks

 G                         D                   D Dsus4 D  Dsus2

She is full of tricks and blends so sticky in my blood
 G           D

    Dm                         C
And I can only run from everything and after her
Cm                       G
I'm wired and tired and full of holes
Dm                     Am
And she plays Pandora with my soul
Cm                      Gm
I'll never let her go -- it's so quiet here without her
