[Verse]
ARings 'round hisF#m eyes
ATracks down his F#marm
AHis fans are conF#mfused and his
Dfriends are alaErmed
AHis wife doesn'tF#m talk
AHates when he's F#mgone
ACounts every skF#mirt
Din his new entourEage
[Chorus]
And they're aDll gossamer tE7hin
Left of the dAial, bohF#memians
And they daDnce, tournament stE7yle
Twirl 'round the rAoom, curtsey and F#msmile
AAnd they sit at F#mhis feet,
Aread poeF#mtry and
ASwoon wiEth each wDord E7he speAaks

D E
[Verse]
AShe likes the new pF#mope
AShe's not scared of F#mhell
AThey meet once a wF#meek
at a seDcret moEtel
AShe kisses his nF#meck,
Ashe plays with hF#mis hair
AHer screams sound like plF#measure,
her moDans like desEpair
[Verse]
And they're spDread gossamer tE7hin
Pushed to the eAdge, frayed at the F#mends
And it's Dno business of E7mine
They can love moAre than one at a F#mtime
But they're Apushing their luF#mck
AHard but they muF#mst
ARisk Eit aDll fE7or lovAe

[Bridge]
C#mNow I walk around in some kind of alDtered state E
F#mThe drink in my hDand is starting to shAake
C#mI get used to it if it has to sDtay this way E
F#mA new bunch of floDwers I'll have to arE7range

[Verse]
AI don't want to F#meat
Aor get out of F#mbed
ATry to recF#mall
what the tDherapist Esaid
AEgo andF#m Id,
Athe Essential SF#melf
AYou are who you F#mare
and yoDu are someone Eelse
[Chorus]
But I'm woDrn gossamer tE7hin
Like delicate aArch, carved by the F#mwind
There's a glDass psyche at stE7ake
Throw me a bArick, see if it brF#meaks
'Cause Athe mind and the brF#main
Aaren't quite the sF#mame
ABut they both waEnt Dout oE7f this Aplace
