Unlike plastic, easier to see through
Just like glass with no ring
Softer and sadder you sing
Sexy sexy do your thing
Learn to be shy and then you can sting
Plexi, plexi bend don't shatter
Once your broken shape won't matter
You're breaking your mind
By killing the time that kills you
But you can't blame the time
'Cause it's only in your mind
Quickly quickly grow and then you'll know
It's such and awkward show to see
And everyone you wanted to know
And everyone you wanted to meet
Have all gone away
Oh, they've all gone away
And now you're

version 5
Standard tuning, capo'd at the second fret. I'll tab it relative to the capo.
Relative to the capo:
Intro:

d--2-2---2-2--2-2--2-2-|

e-0--------------------|
Emaj Emaj Amin Amin
You play that multiple times, then it ends like this:
Verse Ending:

g--2-2--2-2--4-4--4-4-|
d--3-3--3-3--5-5--5-5-|
a---------------------|
e-1----1----3----3----|
F F G G
The chorus has the same chord shapes and finger picking pattern, but the progression goes.
Amin, G, F, Emaj
Amin, G, F, Emaj,
Then A minor for four measures.
After that, you just go back between the chorus and verse.

version 6
Tips:
The "x" indicates a guitar slap/muted note. I generally slap my thumb and hit multiple
strings, while palm muting. Make sure to listen to the song and try to capture the
timing. You must be able to quickly change barre chord shapes to follow the original track.
Chord shapes:
F#M shape, switching to Bm shape
For pre-chorus and chorus, it's a barre chord E shape, moving up the frets.
It's important to lift up in between the chords to pluck the B and G strings as
indicated in the tab.

Sexy sexy made up of plexi disasters
Pushing and pulling conservative rolling
Unlike plastic, easier to see through
Just like glass with no ring
Softer and sadder you sing
Sexy sexy do your thing
Learn to be shy and then you can sting
Plexi, plexi bend don't shatter
Once your broken shape won't matter
You're breaking your mind
By killing the time that kills you
But you can't blame the time
'Cause it's only in your mind
Quickly quickly grow and then you'll know
It's such and awkward show to see
And everyone you wanted to know
And everyone you wanted to meet
Have all gone away
Oh, they've all gone away
And now you're
Breaking your mind
By killing the time that kills you
But you can't blame the time
'Cause it's only in your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind
You're breaking your mind, mind, mind
