[Verse]
C F
Ginger's sleeping on the floor,
G C
Of a hardwood floor apartment
F
Maybe one day she'll have more to say,
G Em F C
But right now she has no comment
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F C
Everything's a cavity
Em F C
The last few months especially
Em F C
But all of that's behind her now
Oh yeah, oh yeah
[Chorus]
Em F
See you can tie her up,
C
Just don't tie her down
Em F
Yeah, you can tie her up,
C
Don't tie her down
F G C
[Verse]
C
Back before I got struck by lighting,
F G C
And things were so much different than they are now
F
I got a lot more people leaning on me
G Em
And all I wanna do is make them proud
[Pre-Chorus]
F C
But this is my body
Em F C
The only thing that I own entirely
Em F C
And it'll carry me to greatness somehow
Oh yeah, oh yeah
[Chorus]
Em F
See, you can tie me up,
C
Don't tie me down
Em F
Yeah, you can tie me up,
C
Don't tie me down
C
Don't tie me down.
[Bridge]
C F Am G
(No chords – Optional C F Am G)
Every spider I kill,
Stays inside of my pocket
I am so desperate to tame the beast,
I shut the door and I lock it
C F Am
I got a dead spider in my pocket,
G
I'm not ashamed to say
C F
I was desperate to tame the beast
Am G
Desperate to tame the beast
F
See you can tie me up (You can tie me up),
G
But don't tie me down (Don't tie me down)
F
Yeah you can tie me up (You can tie me up),
G
But don't tie me down (Don't tie me down)
[Pre-Chorus]
Em F C
Everything's a cavity
Em F C
The last three months especially
Em F C
But all of that's behind me now
Oh yeah, oh yeah
[Ending]
Em F
So you can tie me up,
C
Don't tie me down
