Verse

It's knocking off
My diamond wig
Knocking me down onto the platinum ground
Em7 F#m7 G6 G#m6(b5) G/A
Woke up in a beauti ful dream
Alone   
Alone

Chorus

I got hit by a mink car
Hit by a mink car
Driven by a guitar
And the silver chauffeur says that it's all in your head
When you're 24 karat dead
    

Bridge

In my dream she is reaching past my hollow core.
And her smile's an open sign on an abandoned store.

Solo

(Chorus chords)

Chorus

I got hit by a mink car
Hit by a mink car
Driven by a guitar
And the silver chauffeur says that it's all in your head
When you're 24 karat dead
Dead 
Dead
