[Introduction] Db Db7 Gb Eb [Verse 1]
Db                     Db7
Here I am living with old ideas

     Gb
In a country at a loss

       Gbm         Gbm*
With a fetishising boss

       Db                Db7
He's a family man with a family plan

       Gb
Laughing in the dispatch box

      Gbm
As another protest lost
[Chorus]
Db
   And I can feel the edge

Db7                    Gb
   I can feel the edge

A                       Db
   But I still gotta try

  Db7
To sleep through

       Gb
In this stale room

    Gbm            Gbm*           Db
But I can feel a vacancy at night

          Db7
And they fail you

          Gb
Then they drain you

    Gbm                            Db
And I can feel a vacancy at night
[Verse 2]
    Db
The same old dance

     Db7
That same old man

       Gb
Saying buy your happiness

      Gbm                Gbm*
It's included with the stress

    Db
The swindled kids

       Db7
On our seventh drink

   Gb
Lamenting modern age

     Eb
Just trying to get laid
[Chorus]
Db
   And I can feel the edge

Db7                    Gb
   I can feel the edge

A                     Db
   But I still gotta try

  Db7
To sleep through

       Gb
In this stale room

    Gbm            Gbm*           Db
But I can feel a vacancy at night

          Db7
And they fail you

          Gb
Then they drain you

    Gbm           Gbm*
And I can feel a vacancy at night
[Bridge]
Bbm            A
   And I know, darling

               Gm              Gb Gb Gb Gb*
I've neglected you for my phone

Bbm            A
   But I can't help it

      Gm                   Gb Gb Gb Gb*
I'm another hopeless drone

Bbm           A
   Nothings changing

     Db                 Eb
Supermarket chains are strong
[Chorus]
Gb        Gbm             Db
Oh, but I still gotta try

    Db7
To sleep through

            Gb
Oh, in this stale room

    Gbm          Gbm*             Db
But I can feel a vacancy at night

         Db7
And they help you

         Gb
Then they fuck you

          Gbm                     Db Db7 Gb A Eb
And I can feel a vacancy at night

Gb           Gbm
I can feel a vacancy

   Db
At night
