       A#m F#
Oh, Lillian
                  D#m G#
Look what you've done
                   A#m               F#
You've stripped my heart, ripped it apart
               D#m G#
In the name of fun

Oh, Lillian
I'm a poor man's son
And precious jewels weren't found in schools
Where I came from

A#m       G#           A#m      G#
Pain and misery always hit the spot
A#m          G#                 A#m     F#
Knowing you can't lose what you haven't got

Oh, Lillian
I should have run
I should have known each dress you own
Is a loaded gun

Chorus:
       A#m F# D#m G#
Oh, Lillian

Oh, Lillian
I need protection
I hear your voice and any choice
I had is gone

Oh, Lillian
Once I began
I couldn't stop till every drop
Of blood was sung

Pain and misery always hit the spot
Knowing you can't lose what you haven't got

Oh, Lillian
Look what you've done
You stripped my heart, ripped it apart
In the name of fun

Chorus:
Oh, Lillian
Oh, Lillian
Oh, Lillian
Oh, Lillian
