This is a very rough version, with only basic chords.

Em Em Em(?) Em D C(9)

the Em(?) chord is 020000. I just don't know the name of this chord.

D D(4) C(?) C(9) Em

move the bass note around on the Em in the chorus to make it sound better.

I don't know the names of all these chords, but i play the Em progression as

022000 2x2000 3x2000 x02000

the C(?) chord is x32030.

Chords:

-------

Em 022000

D xx0232

C(9) x32033

D(4) xx0233

Lyrics:

-------

Long lean piece of ice

Thin and hard think what it will do

I can slice and I will pour it to you

Drip drop drip

Reflective properties, I see you

My mind stops and stutters

My mind stops

Please can I kiss your kneecaps?

Sun burns itself out

I look around and notice all the dogs

In line to howl so loud so long

For just one night

What the hell is your name?

I'm numb, dumbed down

On a leash that chokes so hard

My life fades to blue

And the hand that holds my leash

Is so strong that it's useless to struggle

Useless to catch the one breath that starts me down

To freedom

Unknown to the bone

Without taste, past disgrace

White pasty face

Please don't notice me my goddess

You'll have to play with the rhythm a little 'till it sounds right.

Cranck up your CD and play around with it.
