She Stayed As Steam Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 all that Fmusic in your Cmouth

 rivers Grushing at your Amteeth

 cresting A♯waves through wading Fvalleys

 flooded A♯language tribuFtaries

 connect and A♯cover Fover C/Gme

 tensing Fjaw & cork screw Ceyelids

 as if you Gcouldn't bare to Amsee

 all that A♯water pouring Ffrom you

 collecting A♯clouds inside the Fballroom

 over A♯people Fwho don't C/Gknow you A♯

but darling i do

(Return to palm-muted power chords)

 you trance yourFself back towards the Ccity

 blood not Gmoving to your Amfeet

 your foot falls A♯tentative and Fmuffled

 autoA♯matic listless Fshuffle

 your sidewalk A♯scatter Fbrain, cry C/Guncle

 you paint yourFself back in your Ccorner

 and look for Gher on your tAm.v.

 it's friday A♯night and i am Fhungry

 for a A♯hand, a mouth, a Fbody

 a love i A♯wouldn't Fhave to C/Gcarry A♯

(For the next section, either play the riff or the chords below)

 a stitch in my F/A♯mouth

 and i'm untying Dmnow

 a concrete F/A♯canal

 in a bomb border Dmtown G A

(return to palm muted power chords again)

 an A♯echo in the Amrafters

but you killed her in waves

 she stayed a Csteam to hiss at you Fnow C

 he killed her in A♯wavesF

 but that's not Amtoday Dm

(back to palm muting again)

 so you breathe through your Dmmouth

 try to calm yourself A♯down

 and keep what you Ffound

 and shout it out Aloud

(And stop palm muting again)

 she can hover and Dmhurt

 or dissolve to A♯dirt

 some prayer in you FmoutAh

 and she might stay a Gsteam

 so get to the Cbeams

 let you figure her Fout A

G Dm A♯ F A♯ F A♯ C/G C7 F
