Standard tuning (capo 2nd fret)
Intro: G - D - C (x4)
G D C
Well, you know i don't like you but you wanna be my friend
(C) D C G
There are bodies on the ceiling and they're fluttering their wings
(G) D C
It's ok, i'm angry but you'll never understand
(C) D C G
When you dream of Michelangelo they hang above your hands
Am D
And i know that she is not my friend
Am C D
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again
G D C
And i can't see why you wanna talk to me
(C) D C G
When your vision of America is crystalline and clean
(G) D C
I want a white bread life, just something ignorant and plain
(C) D C G
But from the walls of Michelangelo i'm dangling again
Am D
And i know that she is not my friend
Am C D G
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again and again
C D
Saturn on a line...a sun afire strings and wires to
C G
spin above my head and make it right
C D
But any time you like you can catch a sight of angel eyes
C D
all emptiness and infinite
G D C
And i dream of Michelangelo when i'm lying in my bed
(C) D C G
I see God upon the ceiling, i see angels overhead
(G) D C
And it seems so close as he reaches out his hand
(C) D C G
But we are never quite as close as we are led to understand
Am D
And i know that she is not my friend
Am C D
And i know cause there she goes walking, walking, walking
Am D
And i know that she is not my friend
Am C D G
And i know cause there she goes walking on my skin again and again
C G
On my mind...oh Lord no...
C D G
Yes she's walking on my skin again and again
