Intro
Variations of G#m (continued into verse if desired)
Your game, your lovely game
Is like pain and suffering
Your fame, your newly found fame
Is like repeating history
Prechorus
You know that keeping me around
Makes me just quiver at the sound
Wish I could feed their open mouths
With something worth it
Chorus
Where is your backbone?
Cause youre looking very flimsy
I'm breaking down your paper wall
Where is your backbone?
If you hear it sing it with me
Everybody take the fall
You look so sound asleep
I can't believe
That your backbone's missing
And you never had a clue at all
Believe, no I can't believe
How little all this means to me
You'll see, you'll just have to see
For yourself, the playback is deafening
Prechorus, Chorus
Inst: , , , 2x
You could've been something
You could've been something memorable
I should've said something
I should've said...

Where is your backbone?
Cause youre looking very flimsy
I'm breaking down your paper wall
Where is your backbone?
If you hear it sing it with me
Everybody take the fall
You look so sound asleep
I can't believe
That your backbone's missing
And you never had a clue at all
You look so sound asleep
I can't believe
That your backbone's missing
And you never had a clue at all
