lyrics

Needle in The Hay
Virginia Slimm

B D B D
You're alright you're OK
A
Slapped my face, and saved the day
B D B D
Picked my up, packed me in
E
But I'm not OK I've broke away

B D A E
Paper Box to make my space
B A E E
Soaks up Rain, Sags and Fades
F# A E
I Don't Belong Anywhere
F# A D - B
I'm like a needlie in the hay
F# A E
I'm bound to stick you some day.

(falsetto)
B D B D
Prop me up, sneak me in
E
We're OK, for one more day.

B D A E
Sun baked box with carpet wings
B A E E
Keeps out rain, but keeps me in
F# A E
I Don't go out anyway
F# A D - B
I'm like a weevil in the grains
F# A E
I eat a little every day

B D B D
Brought me back, tell me why
A
It's not OK, I'd fade away
(falsetto)
B D B D
Fixed my heart, broke my mind
E
Not for me please some other way

(instrumental bridge)

broken hawk, pecks away
Fills with dirt, swells in pain.

Looks like you've never felt the wind before
Could be an eagle made of clay
Still think you might fly some day.

B D A E
Check the clock, forgot the day
B A E
So my life, blends away
F# A E
I get the feeling I've been done before
F# A D - B
a tiny drop inside a wave
F# A E
A brick a note not much to say.

B D B D
But it's not alright it's not ok.
A E
Just fade off I've gone anyway
F# A D - B
I'm like a needle in the hay
F# A E
I'm bound to stick you some day.
