Verse 1:
D D/C#
A can of cola, an unfilled bathtub
G
For dirty bodies and storing empties
D D/C#
The land-line's nagging, the mail is scattered on the floor
G
And through a keyhole of a triple bolted door
A G D D/C#
It's melodrama, its confused chemicals
Em Em/F# G
It's dirty laundry, its empty Styrofoam.
(Repeat Intro Riff)
Verse 2:
D D/C#
The Giants won and all the firecracker shells
G
Are littering the street and I don't give a shit.
D D/C#
My shoes ran off somewhere and I haven't even
G
Cared to organize a search. My ball of nerves
A G
Don't mistake me
Bm A
I'll refuse you if you choose to track me down.
Em Em/F# G
And don't you make me leave
Bridge*:
D Asus4
Without wishing you well 'til I return
Em7 G
From my brief sojourn to the center of the earth
D Asus4 Em7
As far as I tell you it's not as bad as all of that
G
And I promise not to be reckless
Bm A
Oh heart of mine, heart of mine
G
It's your face that brings me back every time.
(Repeat Intro Riff)
D D/C# G
It's dirty laundry, its empty Styrofoam.
*Heres the chords/basic idea of the finger plucked Bridge part:
(The second time through the Em7 and G are just strummed)
D Asus4

The Intro Riff is played throughout the first and second verses.
There are a few live/solo versions where she plays with the capo on the 8th fret
[Verse 1]
A can of cola, an unfilled bathtub
For dirty bodies and storing empties
The landline's nagging
The mail is scattered on the floor
And through a keyhole of a triple bolted door
It's melodrama, it's confused chemicals
It's dirty laundry, it's empty Styrofoam
[Verse 2]
The Giants won and all the firecracker shells
Are littering the street and I don't give a shit
My shoes ran off somewhere
And I haven't even cared to organize a search
My ball of nerves, don't mistake me
I'll refuse you if you choose to track me down
[Bridge]
And don't you make me leave
Without wishing you well 'til I return
From my brief sojourn to the center of the earth
As far as I tell you, it's not as bad as all of that
And I promise not to be reckless
Oh, heart of mine, heart of mine
It's your face that brings me back every time
[Outro]
It's dirty laundry, it's empty styrofoam
