Biography:
Mike Doughty (born June 10, 1970, in Fort Knox, Kentucky) is an American indie and alternative rock singer-songwriter and author. The former frontman of Soul Coughing from 1992, Doughty began writing solo songs in 1995, but nothing materialized until Soul Coughing broke up in 2000. At this point Doughty began touring solo with his acoustic guitar (after becoming clean and sober). His album Skittish (recorded 1996; released 2000) was finally released, along with the EP Rockity Roll.

TABBED BY: Musial_Musician
Comment: This song is from Mike Doughty's album Smofe + Smang Live In Mpls. This is a
album, but all the music is played by an acoustic guitar with no drums or bass. This
is not for the slightly more electronic normal version.
Capo on 1st fret, all chords in relation to capo.
Power chords recommended
C
Sunken-eyed girl in the sandwich shop
F
Ladle my soup from the kettle pot, so
C
Swooning my self with the smolder looks
F
Parsing that gaze for the right intention.
A G
Sunken-eyed girl don't let me go
F
You're the whole world and you barely know so.
C
You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking
Bb F
And fall down stumble
C
All of the things I think and keep thinking
Bb F
And wake up tremble
Ab
All
Bb
These tears are bound to fall.
C
Sunken-eyed girl on the Ludlow Street
F
Chunky land once but they swept it up, so
C
Sing'in my mind signing you're so sweet
F
I need a bundle of dop just to numb it out
A G
'Cause I'm feeling so good that it hurts my skin
F
Feeling so good I could do myself in
C
You are the drinks I drink and keep drinking and
Bb F
Wake up tremble
C
All of the blinks I blink and keep blinking and
Bb F
Fall down stumble
Ab
All
Bb
These tears are bound to fall.
C F
I'm
C F Ab
No Prize for you
C F
No trophy too
C F Ab
Keep walking through
C F
And I'm
C F Ab
Not worth a dime
C F
I'll drag you down
C F Ab
Don't waste your time

C
Sunken-eyed girl on Delancy Street
F
Bulletproof glass in the KFC
C
So, keep the man safe in his paper hat
F
Keep the wrong hands off the biscut fortune

Sunken-eyed girl don't let me go
F
You're the whole world and ya' barely know so
