And (A)I went to a (D)par ty but on ly on prin ci ple.

Emp ty,

I’m a zom bie in my bod y, I’m a train off of the track.

(F#m7)I feel dirt y, I feel rot ten, (E)and the col ors are all (D)flat.

(A)I’m a sad shell of a wom an and I’ve got mag gots for brains.

(F#m7)But that’s just a thing that hap pens (D)when my,
