Intro (Hammer 3rd fret on a string for the jingly bit :) )

G D/E G D/E

Verse
G
I fell into the street
D/E
Poison in my veins
G
Clamber to my feet
D/E
And into the night again
G
Back to my home
D/E
Back to my owner
G
Who screams at my tardiness,
D/E
Put his hands to the sky

Chorus

And says
Em/D Am7
'What can I do, with a girl
G D/E
If she refuses to be mine?'

Verse

In his bed I am queen
Unobtainable me
Sexual being
Human with feelings
The two are not me
The two will not be mine

Chorus

And what can you do
With a girl, if she
Refuses to be mine?

Verse

Put his hand on my shirt
Hand on my face
Head to the wall
When you've broken your only doll

Chorus

And what will you do
With a girl
If she refuses to be alive?

And you've broken your only doll
And what will you do with a girl
If she's refusing to be alive?

Hope this kinda helps
