G
There is no rush when you don't belong

Turns out we don't all

           Am              E
Fight like dogs in the end

C
Most of us want to roll out

C
Roll under the grass

E
You are limbless, cartoon

E
No bridge in your song

C
Spirulina won't cure my heartbreak

C
I was a dreamer when I learned to take

E
In between her and the fireplace

C
There are factors that conditioned me Something in the canopy

E
Clearly
[Verse 2]
C
And the blank ones

C
Cartwheel out of the furnace

                        E
The mould never cracked you see

                E
The girls in St Denis

                     C
Still sleep on their backs

             C
Understood a fact

                           E
When you spoke in all your marvelous ideologies

                    Am
The world is always at ease, at ease, at ease

          E
Don't you see
[Verse 3]
        C
And the deaths on the highways

From drinking at casinos

Feel so natural

Every day a dice roll

              E
Every way you gamble

                     C
Where is something I can handle?

                      Am
And the world void of Petrov, our savior

        Am
We are taught to savour

               C
Everyone else's failures

       E
Endlessly
[Verse 4]
         C
Even the greatest

              C
The very very greatest, gave up, tapped out

         E
Told all you fuckers to lie down

          E
Yet still you found

                  C
Cathedrals of dissent

                      C
Where does the robber go

                      E
Where does the robber go to repent?

     C
Tell me
[Instrumental] E C E [Verse 5]
G              Am
Till there you were

                      C
You wouldn't buy a round

              Am
For your best friend

                    E
See, it's trickled down

                  Am
On you I don't depend

                  C
There you go then bye

             Am
Another end, bye

          Am
Infinitum bye

E            Am        C
There you go then, bye

Am                       E
  With such a heavy sound
[Verse 6]
                C
There is no rush when you don't belong

          Am                           C
Turns out we don't all fight like dogs in the end

                  Am
Most of us want to roll out

    Am
Roll under the grass

                E
You're limbless, cartoon

             E
No bridge in your song

              Am
Make me wonder, again

                E
Or make me learn, to pretend

              Am
Make me wonder, again

                E
Or make me learn,

C
To pretend

Make me wonder

Again

                E
Or make me learn, to pretend
