G F C
I met her down at the apothecary
G F C
Her sad sad eyes, the burden she carried
C F
Oh darling, try this one if you need a friend
F C G C
I've got the cure for the shape that you're in
G F C
When you met me you were numb from the voice in your head
G F C
Conspiracy delusions that your boyfriend kept fed
C F
I swear I want nothing, just give me your hand
F C G C
I've got the cure for the shape that you're in
G F C
With her saccharine luster, she's a hard little pill
G F C
But she eased me and taught my hands to be still
C F
Just once in the morning, and evening again
F C G C
She had the cure for the shape I was in
G F C
I met her down at the apothecary
G F C
Her sad sad eyes, the burden she carried
C F
Oh darling, try this one if you need a friend
F C G C
I've got the cure for the shape that you're in
[Instrumental - Just repeat chords from last verse]
G F C
All delusions of grandeur, they've long left my head
G F C
As I gave up the notion that I've been well bred
C F
First she shot me with Whiskey, then chased me with Gin
F C G C
But swore I was the cure for the shape she was in
G F C
Then she left me here reeling with that time-release feeling
G F C
Like a long wisp of hunger, I swung from the ceiling
C F
So if you see me down at the apothecary again
F C G C
I can't find a cure for the shape that I'm in.
G F C
I met her down at the apothecary
G F C
Her sad sad eyes, the burden she carried
C F
Oh darling, try this one if you need a friend
F C G C
I've got the cure for the shape that you're in
F C G F C
I've got the cure for the shape that you're in
