Chords

Lyrics taken from the official fan page: https://www.reddit.com/r/loscampesinos/ WARNING: Not all chords are 100% but this was written to sound pretty much exactly like the song using a piano and an acoustic guitar. Me and my girlfriend decided to share it as there was no online chords. D: xx0232 Bm: 224432 F#m: 244222 Em: 022000 G: 320003 [Verse 1]
          D              
I found a home away from home

           Bm
As I broke up in Amarante

       F#m            
In the Campo do Carvalhal

       Em         
Centre circle everyday

   D        
Erratic kamikaze

     Bm         
I co-piloted the swift

           F#m              
Dreamt I'm anchoring that midfield

         Em          
Like the anchor in my midriff

   D                
I drifted through a month alone

           Bm
As I broke up in Amarante

         F#m              
Nursed a two beer buzz four whole weeks

                Em              
'Cause it's the only way to feel sane

      D                     
The newspaper front on the counter top

       Bm
Emblazoned spot kick miss

   F#m                        
I couldn't even hum in your mother tongue

       Em
Just a thumbs down raspberry kiss
[Chorus]
           D                  
(It seems unfair)

        Bm
To be a rotten horn of plenty

            G
(It seems unfair)

        Em          G
To be cadaver for a curse

            D
(It seems unfair)

         Bm
To be an overflow for empty

            G
(It seems unfair)

            Em       G         D
To try your best but feel the worst
[Verse 2]
            D
I threw an empty bottle from way up

   Bm
In thudded into the maw

         F#m
Truth be told I spent the afternoon

      Em
And I threw fifteen more

    D
I'm woken by a honking horn

    Bm
Hungover, spread-eagle

         F#m
Strength between the clicking crickets' knees

          Em
Enough to crush my skull
[Chorus]
           D                  
(It seems unfair)

        Bm
To be a rotten horn of plenty

            G
(It seems unfair)

        Em    G
To be cadaver for a curse

            D
(It seems unfair)

         Bm
To be an overflow for empty

            G
(It seems unfair)

            Em       G         D
To try your best but feel the worst
[Instrumental] D Bm F#m Em D Bm F#m Em [Bridge]
D           Bm
You really can't complain

G           Em
It's just a holiday

D          Bm
You fill a wall chart out

G        Em
Thirty-one days away
D Bm F#m Em D Bm F#m Em [Chorus]
         D
It seems unfair

        Bm
To be a rotten horn of plenty

      G
Seems unfair, To be...

Em                              G
(Nah, I'm gonna need you to help me out here)

          D
(It seems unfair)

D
To be an overflow for empty

D
(It seems unfair)

D
To try your best but feel the worst

             D
(It seems unfair)

         Bm             G              Em
It seems unfair to be a rotten horn of plenty

            D
(It seems unfair)

         Bm             G      Em
It seems unfair to be cadaver for a curse

            D
(It seems unfair)

         Bm              G            Em
It seems unfair to be an overflow for empty

(It seems unfair)

          Bm                G         Em      D
It seems unfair to try your best but feel the worst
