Skinned

The rhythm is like:

V           V           V             V
The roots of the chords are played on the hard beats,
except for the Em where the B note is played
instead of the low E

I play it like:
        C
E |-----------------|
B |---------1---1---|
G |---------0---0---|
D |---------2---2---|
A |---3-------------|
E |-----------------|
    down  down-up

There is a chord towards the end I called C** which I
don't know the official name of but the fingerings are:

   C **  G   Em    E7   Am    C

e  N     3   N     N    N     N
b  1     3   0     3    1     1
g  0     0   0     1    2     0
d  0     0   2     2    2     2
a  2     2   2     2    0     3
E  N     3   N     0    N     N


The C** is the chord that is commonly used for
transferrring a C chord to the Am chord.  So
play whatever you normally would for doing that.

(intro)  G G E7 E7

(verse 1)

G
I'll make a shoe horn outta your shin,
G
I'll make a lampshade of durable skin.
E7
And oh, don't you know that I'm always feelin' able
E7
When I'm sittin' home and I'm carvin' out your navel
G
I'm just a' sittin' here carvin' out your navel

(chorus/refrain 1)
C           Em                C
When will I realize that this skin I'm in
Em
Hey, it isn't mine
C                 Em
And when will the kill be too much
C              Em      E7
meat for me to hide... on

(verse 2)

G
Hey, I could really use a couple of hands
G
To complete one hell of a plant stand
E7
Oh, don't you know that I'm caught here in the middle
E7
Making rib cages into coffee tables
G
I'm just makin' em into coffee tables

(chorus/refrain 2)

C               Em                C
And when will I realize that this skin I'm in
Em
Hey, it isn't mine
C                 Em                C              Em   E7
And when will the trill be too much meat for me to find anymore

Oh, because

(outro)
C
You know I can't hide
Am
But oh how hard I try
C                    C **      G
But this is just the shape I'm in,
Oh yeah
C
And though you know I can't hide
Am
But oh how hard I try
C                    C **      G
But this is just the shape I'm in
