Intro: ( D - G - ) (2x)

D 
My last guilt-themed solicitation 
G 
Delivered slowly in hesitation, 
D 
It could not soothe me, could not seduce me 
G 
Into repainting these strokes so loosely. 
D              C 
How I remember my ex-blue t-shirt. 
G                    E 
Where the hole in it fell... 
A                           C 
Plain-dressed, wilting and wired, 
                        G 
You were the picture of health. 

( D - G - ) (2x) 

D 
Wine glass drowning, postponed narration 
G 
Make every new drag no mere frustration. 
D 
I fell in debt to those country crooners 
G 
Mourning lost love like Spanish funerals. 
D                 C 
Dye the grey hair you grew in secret 
G                   E 
To a root-colored shell. 
A                     C 
Frozen mid-sentenced smile, 
                         G 
You were the picture of health. 
A                C 
No prognosis implied 
                        G 
You were the picture of health. 
A                           C 
Plain-dressed, wilting and wired, 
                        G 
You were the picture of health.
