Am Dm C G C Em7 Am Dm C G Gsus4 G
Am Fmaj7 Well grey clouds wraped round the town like elastic G C Em7 Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain Am Fmaj7 While laundrettes cleaned clothes, high heals rub toes G C Em7 Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G Dressed in their suits and their boots well they all look the same F G C Em7 Am G I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books and crackling vinyl F G C C7 And carved out a poem above the urinal that read F Don't you cry for the lost G Smile for the living C Em7 Am G Get what you need and give what you're given F G Life's for the living so live it Am Or you're better off dead
Dm C G C Em7 Am Dm C G Gsus4 G
Am Fmaj7 While the evening pulled the moon out of it's packet G C Em7 Stars shone like buttons on an old man's jacket Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G We needed a nail but we tacked it 'til it fell of the wall Am Fmaj7 While pigeon's pecked trains, sparks flew like planes G C Em7 The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G And we all had new iPhones but no one had no one to call F G And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town C Em7 Am G Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown F G C C7 With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said F Don't you cry for the lost G Smile for the living C Em7 Am G Get what you need and give what you're given F G Life's for the living so live it Am Or you're better off dead
Em F C Em7 Am Em G Gsus4 G
Am Fmaj7 Well I'm sick of this town, this blind man's forage G C Em7 They take your dreams down and stick them in storage Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G You can have them back son when you've paid off your mortgage and loans Am Fmaj7 Oh hell with this place, I'll go it my own way G C Em7 I'll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway Am Fmaj7 G Gsus4 G Someday someone must be going my way home F G Till then I'll make my bed from a disused car C Em7 Am G With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars F G C C7 And I'll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread F Don't you cry for the lost G Smile for the living C Em7 Am G Get what you need and give what you're given F G You know life's for the living so live it C C7 Or you're better off dead F Don't you cry for the lost G Smile for the living C Em7 Am G Get what you need and give what you're given F G Life's for the living so live it
Or you're better off dead
