Chords

[Intro] D Bm, G (x2) [Verse]
D             Bm              G
She dumps the contents of her purse
Onto the hightop drummer chair
D             Bm            G
I could've sworn that I had sixty more dollars in there

D             Bm              G
She said that I would not believe the things she'€™d read,
They'd written there,
D        Bm               G                            D Bm G
plain as day, and I might turn to salt for staying too long

    D Bm G     D Bm G     D Bm G
Too long,  too long,  too long

D             Bm             G
Beneath the booklight little songs sing out to me he's here again

D           Bm                  G
Squints his eyes and counts out ninety nine dollars in tens

D           Bm                G
Says "Well, since when can an honest man get high after a day

D         Bm                G                      D Bm G
Of honest work around these choir boys bringing me down

   D Bm G     D Bm G     D Bm G
Me down,   me down,   me down"

F           G               C                   F
   Into the void, a plea to make it through the night

           C           G
My kind of man, always right

F              G                C                   A#
   Dead on deployment see, your dog went toward the fight

F                                G
Licking his wounds, stars in his eyes
[Interlude] D Bm G (x2) [Verse]
D             Bm              G
Sometimes the good ones leave before you’ve even seen them there at all

D             Bm                   G
Sometimes the good ones stay home, waiting on government calls

D             Bm                 G
Sometimes the good ones like you best before you're hooked on aerosols

D             Bm                     G               D Bm G
Sometimes the good ones aren't quite good as you had recalled

D Bm G    D Bm G    D Bm G
Recalled, recalled, recalled

A                       D
   Come out candlelight,   give me one big bite

G
 It's all for me

F#m                       D
   Cough up smoke and ash,   stare down the camera flash

G
 It's all I see

A         F#m            D
   What I think you know,   somehow you should know

G
 But now it's free

F           G               C                   F
   Into the void, a plea to make it through the night

           C           G
My kind of man, always right

F              G                C                   A#
   Dead on deployment see, your dog went toward the fight

F                                G
Licking his wounds, stars in his eyes
[Outro]
D Bm G (x4)
End on G
