Like my usual Reasons for making a tab, i needed the complete version of this song with all the chords
so i could play it live. I also added an extra chorus and fixed up the timing of the notes.

    C             G
He left a card a bar of soap
 
      Am                   F
And a scrubbing brush next to a note 
 
           C         G              Am        F
That said use these down to your bones 
 
    C                     G
And before i knew I had shiny skin 
 
           Am             F
And it felt easy being clean like him 
 
           C              G            Am      F
I thought this one knows better than I do 
 
 
pre-chorus:
 
 Dm                    F               G
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle 
 
Dm                         F
 He tried to cut me so I'd fit
 
 
Chorus
 
G                      C
and Doesn't that sound familiar 
 
                     G
Doesn't that hit too close to home 
 
                      Am
Doesn't that make you shiver 
 
                           F
The way things could have gone 
 
G                    C
Doesn't that feel peculiar 
 
                        G
That everyone wants a little more 
 
                    Am
And so that I do remember
 
                 F
To never go that far 
 
            G             C
Could you leave me with a scar
 
 
 
Verse 2
 
C                           G
So the next one came with a bag of treats
 
      Am                   F
she smelled like sugar and spoke like the sea
 
           C                  G          Am        F
and she told me, don't trust them, trust me 
 
         C                     G
then she pulled at my stitches one by one,
 
   Am                F
looked at my insides clicking her tongue 
 
           C            G              Am      F
and said this will all have to come undone 
 
 
pre-chorus:
 
 Dm                    F              G
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle 
 
Dm                         F
 He tried to cut me so I'd fit
 
 
Chorus
 
G                      C
and Doesn't that sound familiar 
 
                     G
Doesn't that hit you too close to home 
 
                      Am
Doesn't that make you shiver 
 
                           F
The way things could have gone 
 
G                    C
Doesn't that feel peculiar 
 
                        G
That everyone wants a little more 
 
                    Am
And so that I do remember
 
                 F
To never go that far 
 
            G             Dm
Could you leave me with a scar
 
 
Instrumental
 
Dm---F---C---G---Dm---F---(stop)
 
 
Out Bridge
 
I think I realised just in time
 
Although my old self was hard to find
 
You can bathe me in your finest wine but I'll never give you mine
 
 
Outro
 
            C
Cos I'm a little bit tired of fearing that I'll be the 
 
G/B
Bad fruit nobody buys
 
A                                         F
Tell me, did you think we'd all dream the same?
 
C-G-Am-F
 
Last Chorus
 
G                      C
and Doesn't that sound familiar 
 
                     G
Doesn't that hit you too close to home 
 
                      Am
Doesn't that make you shiver 
 
                           F
The way things could have gone 
 
G                    C
Doesn't that feel peculiar 
 
                        G
That everyone wants a little more 
 
                    Am
And so that I do remember
 
                 F
To never go that far 
 
            G             Dm
Could you leave me with a scar

Accurate chords and full lyrics are great. However, I much prefer how it sounds with no capo, same chords.

No capo required and some chords are off but a good base to work from
