[Intro] B G#m B G#m B G#m B G#m [Verse]
B                       G#m
In competition for the worst first line I could use

  B                     G#m
In conversation for the first time

B                   G#m                           E
Find salvation and breathe in each breath that I choose

                       E
[tab]B               G#m                  B
Brooklyn lies bleeding in the afternoon

B                    G#m
Always four or five steps from misfortune

B                        G#m
To drown out moments of revelation

E
In competition for the worst time
[Chorus]
   B                  D#m         G#m
I know my name but I can't deny

            E              B
I talk in silence like I'm used to

    D#m     E G#m E G#m
Ohhh - oh - wow - oh

Confidence for the first time

B                      G#m                        E
Take the money and the drink you were going to refuse

                       G#m
In competition for the worst time

B                G#m
Glasgow lies bleeding in the afternoon

 B               G#m
A practical response to good fortune

B                      G#m
I dream my moments of revelation

E                       G#m
In competition for the worst time
[Chorus]
   B                  D#m         G#m
I know my name but I can't deny

            E              B
I talk in silence like I'm used to

    D#m     E G#m E G#m
Ohhh - oh - wow - oh

              B  D#m  G#m
No matter how ha-rd I try

            E               B
I talk in silence like I'm used to

    D#m     E G#m E G#m
Ohhh - oh - wow - oh
