It's so hard to find Aimee Mann tabs on the net so I thought I'd tab one of her
songs of her last album. This is a great song called "humpty dumpty" and it's
track 1 of Aimee's "lost in space" LP.

Lyrics -
Verse 1:
say you were split you were split in fragments
and none of the pieces will talk to you
wouldn't you want to be who you haven't
well maybe I want that too
Chorus:
better take the keys and drive forever
staying won't put these futures back together
all the perfect drugs and super heroes
wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero
Verse 2:
baby you're great, you've been more than patient
pretending it's not a catastrophe
but I'm not the girl you once put your faith in
just someone who looks like me
repeat chorus
Bridge:
so get out while you can
get out while you can cos baby I'm pouring quick sand
and sinking is all I had planned so better just go
Solo
repeat chorus
Outro:
all the king's horses and all the king's men
couldn't put baby together again (repeat)
There we are, hope you enjoy!
