INTRO: D6
[D6]Even though you think
to push me from the [D6]bath into the sink
I can still get [G]clean
from everything [E7]obscene
So [D6]just pass me the soap
and I will scrub so h[D6]ard to have the hope
that one day I'll be f[G]ree
and flies won't follow [E7]me
But if the [Bm]bath is black
and the [G]soap is old
you're [Bm]turning the hot tap but the [G]water is cold
[Bm]try as you might
[G] [G] [Em]
[E]everything you've [A7]prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours
and [A7]you're not coming home to
[D6]All this mess undressed
I'll put you to the [D6]test just try your best
Put your apron [G]on
I feel it's been too [E7]long
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/marika_hackman/bath_is_black_acoustic_crd.html )
Since y[D6]ou last made me laugh
instead my hands have s[D6]tuck to you with tar
and I can't get them [G]off
I leave prints on the [E7]clock
But if the [Bm]bath is black
and the [G]soap is old
you're [Bm]turning the hot tap but the [G]water is cold
[Bm]try as you might
[G] [G] [Em]
[E]everything you've [A7]prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours
and [A7]you're not coming home
[G]tonight
you're not coming [Em]home
[G]tonight
you're not coming [Em]home
---------------------------------------------------------
to [G]all this mess undressed
i'll put you to the [Em]test just try your best REPEAT x4
---------------------------------------------------------
Cause if the [G]bath is black and the soap is old
You're [Em]turning the hot tap but the water is cold
[G]try as you might everything you
[Em]try as you might everything
But if the [Bm]bath is black
and the [G]soap is old
you're [Bm]turning the hot tap but the [G]water is cold
[Bm]try as you might
[G] [G] [Em]
[E]everything you've [A7]prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours
and [A7]you're not coming home[D]
