This is the story of your red right ankle and how it came to meet your leg
D/F# G D/F# G
And how the muscle bone and sinews tangled and how the skin was softly shed
Em A Em A
And how it whispered oh adhere to me for we are bound by symmetry
Em A D G G D/F#
And whatever differences our lives have been we together make a limb
Em A D/F# G D/F# G

And how his face was carved and ripped wrinkles in the picture in your head
Em A Em A (Asus4)
And remember how you found the key to his hideout in the Pyrenees
Em A D G G D/F#
But you wanted to keep his secret safe so you threw the key away

And some were sweet and some were cold and snuffed you and some just laid around in bed
Em A (Asus4) Em A (Asus4)
And had crumbled you straight to your knees did it cruel did it tenderly

And some had crawled their way into your heart to rend your ventricles apart
