Em              D    C
All alone, not by myself
Em                D      C
Another girl bad for my health
Em                        D      C
I've seen it all through someone else, and I
Em                 D      C
(Another girl bad for my health)

Em             D     C
Celebrated but undisturbed
Em                D      C
Serenaded by the terror bird
Em                         D     C
It's seldom seen and it's never heard, oh
Em                 D      C   Em
(Serenaded by the terror bird)

Chorus:
      D             A              E
Never in the wrong time or wrong place
      D              A          E
Desecration is the smile on my face
            D            A           E
The love I made is the shape of my space
    D        A
My face, my face

Disintegrated by the rising sun
A rolling black out of oblivion
And I'd like to think that I'm your number one, I'm
(A rolling black out of oblivion)

I wanna leave but I just get stuck
A broken record runnin' low on luck
There's heavy metal coming from your truck
And I'm a (a broken record runnin' low on luck)

Chorus

C             G
We could all go down to
 E
Malibu and make some noise
C     G            E
Coca Cola doesn't do the justice she enjoys
C             G
We could all come up with
 E
Something new to be destroyed
C             G  Em
We could all go down

I love the feeling when it falls apart
I'm slow to finish but I'm quick to start and
Beneath the heather lies the meadowlark
And I'm (slow to finish but I'm quick to start)
