Silver Jews – How To Rent A Room (Guitar)

        F                  C
No I don't really want to die

        F                  C
I only want to die in your eyes

            F                C
I'm still here below the chandeli er

               F                 C
Where they always used to read us our rights

           F                 C
I want to wander through the night

        F                             C
As a figure in the distance even to my own eye

         F               C
Have you ever rented a room?

           F                Am
Have you even ever rented a room?

Dm                                 G
       An anchor lets you see the river move

Em                              Am
Now that your evil dreams came true

Dm                      G
         There on your face

         Em                 Am
A row of teeth will come to replace

            F
I know you laughed

       C
When I left

        F               C
But you really only hurt yourself

           F                      C
You see your curtains move in the wind

          F                         C
You can bet I'm betting against you again

            F                            C
Cause I'm a man who has a wife who has a mother

            F                  C
Who married one but she loved another

         F                 C
You're a tower without the bells

         F               Am
You're a negative wishing well

Dm                               G
        Should have checked the stable      door

        Em                   Am
For the name of the sire and dame

Dm                           G
     You were always at the dog track

           Em                  Am
With your brother and all his friends

F                         C
    Chalk lines around my body

          F              C
Like the shore line of a lake

        F             C
Your laughter made me nervous

     F                    C
It made your body shake too hard

              F                           C
Now there's a lot of things that I'm gonna miss

         F                         C
Like thunder down country and the way water drips

              F                         C
When you're running for the door in the rain

F
Read the metro section

F
Read the metro section

F
Read the metro section

       C
See my name

Dm                               G
      No I didn't really want to die

         Em                  Am
I only wanted to die in your eyes

Dm             G
  Grant me one last wish

            Em                   Am
Life should mean a lot less than this

Dm                 G
Grant me one last wish

           Em                    Am
Life should mean a lot less than this
