Intro: 
Em G C 

           C                   D 
There?s a lock on my cupboard door, 
     Am          C            D 
That I can only reach once inside, 
      Am     Em      Am      Em   D 
And I often sit and wonder who designed, 
 Am     C                       Bm 
Such a perfect place for me to hide 

            C 
It's just my name, 
            Bm 
It's just my skin, 
           Am 
Holding a boulder, 
      Bm 
Can you swim? 
        Em 
Oh as we fall, 
             G    Am 
Through the water, 
                     Bm 
You find a piece within, 
                              Em  C 
And you know it's just your skin 

     C                             D 
Well I was never lonely ?till the day that I was born, 
 C                                 D   
Since that day I masquerade in a skin that I have worn, 
         C                           G 
With at least three separate individual minds, 
           C                                     D 
When long John returns he?ll give a scream, and what he finds 

          C 
Is just my name, 
          Bm 
Is just my skin, 
           Am 
Holding a boulder, 
      Bm 
Can you swim?  
        Em 
Oh as we fall, 
             G    Am 
Through the water, 
                     Bm 
You find a piece within, 

And you know it's just your 

  C                                     D 
Black dog, black dog, that I?ll never know, 
     C                                          D 
Oh black dog haunts you mind, your world, your soul, 
     C                                       D 
Oh black dog, black dog, can't you see I am fine? 
     Am                                       Bm 
Oh black dog, black dog, you're no plague of mine.  

            C 
It's just my name, 
            Bm 
It's just my skin, 
            Am 
I'm just a boulder, 
      Bm 
Can you swim?  
              C 
It's just my name, 
                Bm 
Oh, it's just my skin, 
               Am 
I'm just your boulder, 
          Bm 
Can you swim? 
        Em 
Oh as we fall, 
             G    Am 
Through the water, 
                    Bm 
You find a piece inside, 
                           Em 
And you know it's just your skin.
