The Libertines - Smashing

Ok, One of my favourite Libertines songs, although i prefer it when its played in the
Babyshambles sessions, which is where i have tabbed it from. I'm pretty sure its spot
on after playing along with the recording.
I play this with all bar chords up near fret twelve, it can be played with open
chords.... which does sound a bit closer to the recording i must admit, i just
prefer the sound of the high notes in the bar chords...
and remember.... slowly slowly catchy monkey..... that applies to almost every
situation.....

D					  F#m
Monkey whore showed the pregnant girl the door
		       Em
For something that she saw
	        A (Arpeggiate)
Underneath the bed
     D				     F#m
And she says it's the devil that she saw
			Em
In the mirror that she swore at
     		   A (Arpeggiate)
And smashed into pieces
	
	   D (1 strum)			F#m
Now the flowers in the teapot have all died
		Em
Just like the child
	     A
Or was that just in her mind?

     D					F#m
And she says that her heart is growing cold
			  Em
And the window will not close
		       A
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
Em		       A
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
Em	   	       A
Perhaps she'll put a spell on you
