[Intro]
C F C F
(And between verses)
 
[Verse 1]
                C         F
Put me in your suitcase
                 Am     F
Let me help you pack
                            C     F
'Cause you're never coming back
                        C     F
No you're never coming back
 
                 C         F
Cook me in your breakfast
                     Am     F
And put me on your plate
                             C      F
'Cause you know I'll taste great
                         C      F
Yeah, you know I taste great
 
[Refrain]
       Am                  G
At the hop it's greaseball heaven
           Dm
With candy pants
            G
And archie too
 
[Verse 2]
                C          F
Put me in your dry dream
                   Am     F
Oh, put me in your wet
               C      F
If you haven't yet
                   C      F
No, if you haven't yet
 
                    C       F
Light me with your candle
                           Am     F
And watch that flames grow high
                            C      F
You know it doesn't hurt to try
                   C     F
It doesn't hurt to try
 
[Refrain]
               Am                  G
Well, I won't stop all of my-y pretending
                 Dm
That you'll come home
                                G
You'll be comin' home some day soon
 
                C          F
Put me in your blue skies
                     Am     F
Oh, put me in your grey
                       C     F
There's gotta be some way
                       C     F
There's gotta be some way
 
                 C          F
Put me in your tounge tied
                 Am    F
Make it hard to say
                      C      F
That you ain't gonna stay
                      C      F
That you ain't gonna stay
 
                 C        F
Wrap me in your marrow
                      Am     F
And stuff me in your bones
                     C      F
And sing a mending moan
                     C      F
A song to bring you home

The F after "candy pants" should be a Dm. Could throw in an F on "too" before the final G of the bridge, but I think it sounds better to stay on Dm until the G.

yeah good work. i saw devendra do it on youtube once n i think he played the Cs with a G bass note too. had his mate playin an bin too, haha

Sounds slightly better fingerpicked but this is an amazing alternative, Thanks :D xxx
