 Variations of Gm (continued into verse if desired)
 Your game,  your lovely game
 Is like pain  and suffering
 Your fame,  your newly found fame
 Is like repeating  history
 You know that keeping  me around
 Makes me just quiver  at the sound
 Wish I could feed  their open mouths
 With something worth it
 Where is your backbone?
 Cause you’re looking  very flimsy
 I'm breaking  down your paper wall
 Where is your backbone?
 If you hear  it sing it with  me
Everybody  take the fall
 You look so sound  asleep
 I can't  believe
 That your backbone's  missing
 And you never had a clue at all
Believe,  no I can't believe
 How little all  this means to me
 You'll see,  you'll just have to see
 For yourself,  the playback is deafening
 Prechorus, Chorus
 Inst: , , ,  2x
 You could've been something
 You could've been something memorable
 I should've said something
 I should've said...
 Inst: , , , ,
 Where is your backbone?
 Cause you’re looking  very flimsy
 I'm breaking  down your paper wall
 Where is your backbone?
 If you hear  it sing it with  me
Everybody  take the fall
 You look so sound  asleep
 I can't  believe
 That your backbone's  missing
 And you never  had a clue at all
 You look so sound  asleep
 I can't  believe
 That your backbone's  missing
 And you never had a clue at all
