Japanese Breakfast – Rugged Country (Guitar)

E   B     G#m          C#m
6 6 6 sixteen-year-old kids

E                   B
huddled around the grocery lot

    E              B            G#m               C#m
"He punched out my teeth" so you said, so did the evidence

    E             B           C#m                G#m
The blood and the dent on the car door from your head

    E
And this is where I bring you

     B                       A
With every laurel I've hung from your neck

        Esus2
It will be the noose that hangs you

            Esus2
Yes it will be the noose that hangs you

            B                    G#m
Cause I was lonely here and its lonely still

        C#m                       E
In the rugged country where the weeds grow fierce

        B                    G#m
Quicker than the crop I keep running from

        C#m
In this rugged country

         E
I'm the rugged one

         B
I'm the rugged one

         G#m
I'm the rugged one

         C#m
I'm the rugged one

 E
And this is where we lost you

        B               A
Despite every effort to bring you back

          E
Yeah, the hopes the one that haunts you

        B                             A
And the home's the rope thats wrapped around your neck

            Esus2
And it will be the noose that hangs you

            Esus2
Yes it will be the noose that hangs you

           B                  G#m
And it's a heavy hand where I wear your death

     C#m                 E
As a wedding ring in the rugged country

       B                  G#m
I tend to your man in the home you had

      C#m
Oh in this rugged country

         E
I'm the rugged one

         B
I'm the rugged one

         G#m
I'm the rugged one

         C#m           E
I'm the rugged one
