Notes: This one's fairly straightforward, almost sure it's all open chords. 
Also, the bridge runs straight into the chorus. I'll nut out the piano parts 
into guitar tab, just email me if you would like this to happen.

Dedicated to Ms Anne Castles -- je ne sais quoi (need I say more!??)

INTRO:

C, G, Am, F X 2

VERSES:

C                  G                Am                   F
He left a card, a bar of soap and a scrubbing brush next to a note
           C         G            Am      F
That said "use these down to your bones"
C                       G                 Am              F
And before I knew I had shiny skin and it felt easy being clean like him
           C              G             Am     F
I thought "this one knows better than I do"

BRIDGE:

Dm                   F                  G
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle
Dm                        F    G
He tried to cut me so I'd fit, and doesn't that sound
--
CHORUS:

C                              G
familiar? Doesn't that hit too close to home?
                      Am                              F
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could've gone?
                    C                               G
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more?
                 Am                        F
And so that I do remember to never go that far,
         G                 C
Could you leave me with a scar?

C, G, Am, F
C, G, Am, F (Follow this sequence for verse, as above)

VERSE 2:
So the next one came with a bag of treats, she smelled like sugar and
spoke like the sea
And she told me don't trust them, trust me
Then she pulled at my stitches one by one, looked at my insides clicking
her tongue and said
"This will all have to come undone"

BRIDGE:

Dm                   F                  G
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle
Dm                        F    G
He tried to cut me so I'd fit, and doesn't that sound

CHORUS:

C                              G
familiar? Doesn't that hit too close to home?
                      Am                              F
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could've gone?
                    C                               G
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more?
                 Am                        F
And so that I do remember to never go that far,
         G                 Dm
Could you leave me with a scar?

Piano solo part:

Dm, F, c, G
Dm, F, G, C

** A Cappella, except for percussion/drums

I think I realized just in time, although my old self was hard to find
You bathe me in your finest wine but I'll never give you mine

** C, G, Am, F (strum single chords, or fingerpick lightly and let ring for 
each change in this part)

'Cos I'm a little bit tired of feeling like I'll be the bad fruit nobody 
buys
Tell me, did you think we'd all dream the same?

CHORUS:

C                              G
familiar? Doesn't that hit too close to home?
                      Am                              F
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could've gone?
                    C                               G
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more?
                 Am                        F
And so that I do remember to never go that far,
         G                 Dm
Could you leave me with a scar?
C, G, Am                         F
       Could you leave me with a scar?
C, G, Am                         F
       Could you leave me with a scar?
C, G, Am                         F
       Could you leave me with a scar?
