Em                  Am          Em              Am 
Those that would judge would say you're aloof 
        Em              Am      Em 
But you know the truth is a seed 
                        Am              D 
You know what you need is a conflagration 
              Em                Am 
Cause when I see the blood  
        Em              Am 
And the bits of your broken tooth 
    Em          Am              Em 
It gives me the proof that I need 
                        Am 
It's the proof that you bleed 
        D 
It's a revelation 
                G                       D7 
Yeah it's a revelation, it's a revelation 
 
 
G                       C               D 
I thought you were a life-sized paper doll 
G                       C       D 
Propped up in the hardware store 
G                       C               D 
Propped up on the front lawn watching the parade 
G                               C       D 
Of those legionnaires with two-by-four's 
                                Em 
As they're marching off to war 
                                D 
Yeah they're marching off to war 
 
Em                              G 
I didn't know what you were made of 
Em                                      G 
The color of your blood, what you're afraid of 
Em                              G 
Are you made of calcium or are you carbon-based 
Em                                      G 
And if you're made of calcium I'll have to take a taste 
                C                       G 
Cause, listen, calcium is deadly and tender to the tooth 
                C                                       G               C 
And it's one sure-fire way to know if you're MX-missile-proof, oh no  
                     D 
Or if you're just aloof 
 
Em                                      G 
You were in the ground in late November 
Em                                      G 
When the leaves and earth are damp 
Em                                      G 
Did you, did you think they would remember 
Em                              C 
How you almost made state champ  
                                                        G 
Cause when you're running for the game against Alfonzo 
        C                                       G 
And you fell upon the ground and chipped a tooth 
        C                                       G 
Oh no, listen, it didn't really half surprise us 
                                        D  
To learn that you aren't really MX-missile-proof 
 
 
G                                               D 
Oh, I thought you were a life-sized paper doll 
G                               C               D 
And you're propped up in the hardware store 
G                                               D 
You were propped up on the front lawn watching the parade  
G                               C       D 
Of those legionnaires with two-by-four's 
                                Em 
As they're marching off to war 
                                D7 
Yeah they're marching off to war 
G               D       G 
Oh they're marching
