[Intro] Am E Am E [Verse] (PERSEPHONE)
Am                        E7
I don't know about you, boys

Am                                     E7
But if you're like me, then hanging around

Am                               E7
This old manhole is bringing you down

Am                                   E7
Six-feet-under getting under your skin

Am                       E7
Cabin fever is setting in

Am                                    E7
You're stir crazy! You're stuck in a rut!

Am                                E7
Or you could use a little pick-me-up

Am                             E7
I can give you what it is you crave

Am                                   E7
A little something from the good old days

Am                              E7
I got the wind right here in a jar

Am                            E7
I got the rain on tap at the bar

Am                        E7
I got sunshine up on the shelf

Am                   
Allow me to introduce myself

Am

Am
My name is...

[Break] Am E7 Am E7 [Verse]
Am                          E7
Come here, brother, let me guess

Am                           E7
It's the little things you miss

Am                      E7
Spring flowers, autumn leaves

Am                                E7
Ask me, brother, and you shall receive

Am                          E7
Or maybe these just ain't enough

Am                                      E7
Maybe you're looking for some stronger stuff

Am                             E7
I got a sight for the sorest eye

Am                               
When's the last time you saw the sky?
[Bridge]
Am  
Wipe away your tears, brother

Bb
Brother, I know how you feel

Am                                 Bb
I can see you're blinded by the sadness of it all

Am                         Bb
But look a little closer, everything will be revealed

Am                   Bb
Look a little closer, there's a crack in the wall
[Verse]
Am                      E7
You want stars? I got a skyful

Am                                        E7
Put a quarter in the slot, you'll get an eyeful

Am                              E7
You want the moon? I got her too

Am
She's right here waiting in my pay-per-view

Am                 E7
Oh, how long's it been?

Am                            E7
A little moonshine ain't no sin

Am                             E7
One at a time, boys, straight line

Am
What the boss don't know, the boss won't mind
[Outro] Am E7 Am E7 Am E7 Am Bb E7
