Matthew Ryan The Dead Girl Lyrics

This is 'The Dead Girl', track 4 from Matthew Ryan's "May Day". It's in standard tuning
with capo on the 1st fret.
Intro: C, C/B, Em (x4) C, C/B
Verse 1:
The dead girl mopes through a dead scene
With a cross-stitched lip she??s picking at the seams
She??s got bravado she says she??s been
Featured in a few magazines
Ahh, Ahh
Interlude: C, C/B, Em (x2) C, C/B
Verse 2:
Now outside the bar Hank is straddling a police car
His fingers are purple and numb from circling a crowbar
Well twenty-four years have made it clear
That things ain't ever what they appear
No no
He says
Chorus:
I won??t be going easily
No I won??t be going lightly
And I won??t be going peacefully
No I won??t be going innocently
Interlude: C, C/B, Em (x4) C, C/B
Verse 3:
A sweet drink spiked with a speed-ball
A twenty-foot ladder and a ninety-foot wall
Dark shadows are gathering and swaggering
Down the hall
Ahh, Ahh
And I know
Chorus:
I won??t be going easily
I won??t be going lightly
And I won??t be going peacefully
No I won??t be going cleanly
Outro: C, C/B, Em
