St. Vincent Severed Crossed Fingers Lyrics

Super simple song. I think the voicing on the recording is capo`d on the 2nd fret,
making the relative key G, but I`m going to put the chords in as if no capo is being used.
When you're calling ain't calling back to you
I'll be side stage, mouthing lines for you
Humiliated by age, terrified of youth
I got hope but my hope isn't helping you
Spitting out guts from their gears
Draining our spleen over years
Find my severed crossed fingers in the rubble there
Wake up puddle eyed, sleeping in a suit
The truth is ugly well, I feel ugly too
We'll be heroes on every bar stool when
Seeing double beats not seeing one of you
Spitting out guts from their gears
Draining our spleen over years
Find my severed crossed fingers in the rubble there
Well you stole the heart right out my chest
Changed the words that I know best
Find my severed crossed fingers in the rubble there
F#m - E repeats then remains on E for a long time
Spitting out guts from their gears
Draining our spleen over years
Find my severed crossed fingers in the rubble there
Well you stole the heart right out my chest
Changed the words that I know best
Find my severed crossed fingers in the rubble there
The instrumental tag that is played in the intro, interlude and outro is:
*If you`re playing with the capo on the second fret, slide up to the C# instead of playing it open
