Bethlehem
Tom: G
Intro: G-Cadd9 G-Cadd9
G
Pulling on the apron strings looking up 
Cadd9
Standing on the chair to be grown up 
  Em
I feel so little, I need my pillow 
D
I hate the time, I hate the clock, I want to be a dog or I want to be a rock 
G
Sunday's pancakes Miss Mary Mack 
Cadd9
Color Polariods show my heart attack 
      G
In my second-hand pants and dusty shoes 
    Cadd9
The day that the playground laughed at my shoes 
        Em
It's my birthday next week and what I want please 
      D
Is to turn on the heat so the fish won't freeze 
    Cadd9
The fish in the tank froze and died last week 
     D
Oh I want to be a dog or I want to be a leaf 
Chorus
G      D        Em   D
Quarry miners, fishermen 
Cadd9                 D
In my town of Bethlehem 
G      D        Em        D
Picket fences, church at ten 
   Cadd9
No star above my Bethlehem 
        G
Now I'm only 16 and I think I have an ulcer 
    Cadd9
I'm hiding my sex behind a dirty sweatshirt 
     Em
I've lost five pounds these past few days 
D
Trying to be class president and get straight A's, 
      Cadd9
Well, who gives a shit about that anyway?

I just want to be a dog or a lump of clay

Bridge
Cadd9                       Em
Still I'm tired of standing still 
                 Am
Tired of living still 
Cadd9      Am              Cadd9-D 
Everyday I dream of leaving 
D
Everybody's talking about Becky's bust 
       D  
The boys on the basketball team just fuck 
      Em
The same ten girls, who don't know who they are 
        D
They're looking for some comfort in the back of a car 
    Cadd9
The six-packs of beer, the locker room jeers 
      D
I don't want to be me, I don't want to be here 
Chorus
G      D       Em    D
Quarry miners, fishermen 
Cadd9                 D

Red brick schoolhouse
G        D           Em   D
Dead end dirt roads, daffodils

No star above my Bethlehem 
Coda
Cadd9                                    Cadd9
I want to be a dog or I want to be a rock

You mean the world to me, I knew that moment then.
            Gm7   F Fsus4 F         C
Your eyes poured into mine, I saw myself.
              F    C   Dm          Bb   Fmaj7   C
You now are home to me, it’s in the little things.
          Fmaj7   F Fsus4 F              C      Dm
We now have years between, silences of knowing,
              C#         C
Eternities in seconds, unfolding in dreams I feel the future of our lives.

           F                C                Dm    Bb
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home.
           F                C                Dm    Bb
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close.
           C                D               Am    Bb
Come on inside the bedtime covers, feel my warmth.
           F                C                Dm    Bb   Dm   Bb
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours.
           F  C  Dm             Bb  Fmaj7  C
There is a universe, there is a galaxy,
           Gm7 F Fsus4 Fmaj7           C   Dm
There is an easy chair, here inside of me.
                 C#
Waiting here for you and me,
C
Let’s build a life together - I’ve waited too long.

Come on inside this broken heart and make a home.
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close.
Come on inside the quilted covers, feel my warmth.
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours.
C                 Ab                      Eb
Maybe fire raged, maybe karma played its way,
                       Bb      C#       Eb
Maybe all my life was blind so I could find you.
Come on inside this broken heart and make a home.
Come on inside these empty arms and hold me close.
Come on inside the nighttime covers, feel my warmth.
Come on inside my secret places, I am yours.

Oh, so breath a little more deeply, my love.  All we

and I don't want to do what his father and his father and 
Fsus				  Gsus2
his fater did.  I want to be here now.

Me 
Tom :Esus
intro:  Esus2  Asus2
Esus2
i am not the person who is singing
Asus2
i am the silent one inside
Esus2
i am not the one who laughs at people's jokes
Asus2
i just pacify their egos
Esus2
i am not my house or my car or my songs
Asus2
they are only just stops along my way
Esus2
i am like the winter.  i'm a dark cold female with a
Asus2
golden ring of wisdom in my cave
CHORUS:
             Esus2
and it's me who is my enemy
Asus2
me who beats me up
Esus2
me who makes the monsters
Asus2
me who strips my confidence
interlude:  Esus2  Asus2
Esus2
i am carrying my voice
Asus2
i am carrying my heart
Esus2
i am carrying my rhythmn
Asus2
i am carrying my prayers
Esus2
but you can't kill my spirit
Asus2
it's soaring and it's strong
like a mountain
Esus2
i go on and on
but when my wings are folded
Asus2
the brightly colored moth
Esus2
blends into the dirt into the ground
chorus
            Esus2
and it's me who's too weak, and it's me who's too shy
     Asus2
to ask for the thing i love
            Esus2
and it's me who's too weak, and it's me who's too shy
    Asus2
to ask for the thing i love
       Esus2
but i love, but i love,
       Asus2
but i love, but i love,
        Esus2
i am walking on the bridge. i am over the water
            Asus2
and i'm scared as hell
but i know there's something better
         Esus2
yes i know there's something
                     Asus2
yes i know, i know, yes i know
but it's me
and it's me
but it's me (4 times)

Throwing Stones
Tom :Dm
Dm                                         A7
So call me a bitch in heat and I'll call you a liar,
Bbsus2               C5
And we'll throw stones until we're dead.
Dm
There you go again, you cut me off from talking
You bask in the glory, the center of the circle.
All our friends think you are a comedian --
so kind and generous, but I am suffering
Bbsus2      Csus                       Bbsus2    Csus2
Away from here, I want to be away from here,
Bbsus2      Gm9
Away from every little thing. 
F
Every little thing.
  Gm9                         Am
I used to love your every little thing.
Dm                                         A7
So call me a bitch in heat and I'll call you a liar,
Bbsus2               C5
And we'll throw stones until we're dead.
Dm
You're the puppeteer and I'm the puppet,
You manipulate me with guilt-ridden Catholic shit.
Everytime I try to talk it through you turn it around
And make us out to be David and Goliath.
Bbsus2      Csus                       Bbsus2    Csus2
Away from here, I want to be away from here,
Bbsus2      Gm9
Away from every little thing. 
F
Every little thing.
  Gm9                         Am
I used to love your every little thing.
F       Gm9                                F
Your arms beneath me, your light inside me
  Gm9                                          F
I used to love your every little, every little thing.
         Gm9                       F
Your eyes blue stars, your hand in my purse,
          Gm9          Am
Now I hate your every little thing.
Dm   C9         Am                                 Dm
Oh    mama I didn't know life was this hard.
Dm   C9             Am                           Dm
Oh    mama my innocence has been tarred
      Bbsus2                   F5/C
My inner vision dulled and darkened
   Bbsus2                 F
I gave myself away to you,
  Bbsus2                    F5/C              Bbsus2                F5/C
I felt my sorrow humble me and throw my crown upon the ground
           Bbsus2     
It was you I hoped for and
F5/C
us I prayed for and
Bbsus2                  F5/C
me that I believed was wrong
       Bbsus2                F5/C                         Bbsus2
But now my anger is my best friend and careful,
                 F5/C                  Dsus2
I may bite your head off.
A7  Bbsus2  Csus
Dm11                                       A7
So call me a bitch in heat and I'll call you a liar,
Bbsus2               Csus
And we'll throw stones until we're dead.
Dm11                                    A7
So call me a bitch in heat and I'll call you motherfucker
        Bbsus2      Csus
And we'll throw stones until we're dead.
