These are just a couple of my cravings

a little bit harmful for me 
E2              Esus/B            E2         Esus/B 
If I should   buy       jellybeans
E2                   Esus/B                     E2         Esus/B
Have to eat them all in just one sitting

D                   D7      G
Tends to make one   part
Bsus 
So brokenhearted 

[Repeat inro]
Sitting here remembering me
Always been a shoe made for the city
Go ahead accuse me of just singing about places
With scrappy boys faces have general run of the town 

Playing with prodigal sons
Takes a lot of sentimental valiums
Can't expect the world to be your Raggedy Andy
While running on empty you little old doll with a frown 

You got to keep in the game
Retaining mystique while facing forward
I suggest a reading of ïA Lesson in Tightropes'
Or ïSurfing Your High Hopes' or ïAdios Kansas' 

It isn't very smart
Tends to make one part
So brokenhearted 

[instrumental chorus, end on B7]
E                        E/B               E       E/B
Still there's not a show on my back
E                 E/B               E            
Holes or a friendly intervention
                  E        E9           A            B        
I'm just a little bit heiress, a little bit Irish-
      B7         E             E9
A little bit Tower of Pisa
            A
When-ever I see ya
      B6                          Abm7        E
So please be kind if I'm    a    ---   mess

Cigarettes and chocolate milk
E                         E9             A       B   Fm
Cigarettes and chocolate milk

Cigarettes and chocolate milk



 






------------------

version 2







The song is in the key of E major
transposing into E natural minor for some of the verses. 

Also, if you are having
trouble at all with the B7s you can play them as Bs and it will not make a difference. I do recommend 
however, to not change the Bm7s during the minor portions.
