[Verse 1]
G
Skeleton you are my friend
Em D G Em D
But you are made of bone
G
And you have got no flesh and blood
Em D G Em D
Running through you to help protect the bone
G Em D
Skeleton we have been friends for years
G
And you have seen me through some trials
Em D G
And tribulations and some tears
Em D G Em D
But everybody thinks I'm weird
[Chorus]
G
And I should have known
Em D C
That it wouldn't be long
Em D C G
Until you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
Em D C G
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
Em D C G
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
Em D C G
But I don't know what to do
[Verse 2]
G Em D
Skeleton we are so close
G
But you have got no body
Em D G Em
G
So why do you insist on wearing clothes
G Em
Skeleton when we were young
D
It was easy
G
Even though the other kids
Em D
They would tease me
G Em
But I was only seven I had you
D G
But now I'm twenty-two
[Chorus]
G Em D C
And now it's different, when I take you out
Em D C G
And you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
Em D C G
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
Em D C G
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
Em D C G
But I don't know what to do
[Bridge]
'Cause sometimes at night,
I dream of the most terrible things
I take a hammer and I creep out of bed
And I raise it high
And I smash your head
Fibular and tubular
And ribs and cages, too
In fact, while I'm here
I'll smash the whole of you
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah............ (etc)
Smaaaaaaaaaaash !
[Verse 3]

But Skeleton, you are my friend
G Em D
And I could never bring your life to an end
G Em D G
D
Yes Skeleton you are, you are my friend
G Em D
And I will be there for you until the end
[Chorus]
G Em D C
And even though, when I take you out
Em D C G
You've got me, you've got me standing in an awkward position
Em D C G
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
I could, I could never let you go
Em D C G
And that is all I know
Em DCG
And that is all I know
Em D C G
And that is all I, that is all I know
Em D C G
And that is all I know, know
