[Verse 1]
 
A                               F#m7
    A green plastic watering can
                      E      D
For a fake Chinese rubber plant
              A     D
In the fake plastic earth
A                                    F#m7
    That she bought from a rubber man
                     E      D
In a town full of rubber plans
       A        D
To get rid of itself
 
 
[Chorus]
 
             Bm7
It wears her out..
             A
It wears her out..
             Bm7
It wears her out..
             A
It wears her out
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A                              F#m7
    She lives with a broken man
                 E      D
A cracked polystyrene man
          A           D
Who just crumbles and burns
A                        F#m7
    He used to do surgery
                   E   D
For girls in the eighties
            A     D
But gravity always wins
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                 Bm
And it wears him out..
             A
It wears him out..
             Bm
It wears him out..
      Asus4     A
It weeeeeaaaars
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
A                                F#m7
    She looks like the real thing
                      E    D
She tastes like the real thing
          A     D
My fake plastic love
A                               F#m7
    But I can't help the feeling
                          E   D
I could blow through the ceiling
         A         D
If I just turn and run
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                Bm7
And it wears me out
            A
It wears me out
            Bm7
It wears me out
            A
It wears me out
 
 
[Outro]
 
               Bm7
And if I could be who you wanted
           A
If I could be who you wanted
     Bm7
All the time..
     A
All the time..
 
Bm7   A   Bm7   A

Well, not everything seemed right, ut al least it gives us somewhere to work from! You are very ungrateful, even though it's not perfect, he/she obviously put work into it. I like it, now I at least know the chords more or less. :)
