The Gaslight Anthem – Selected Poems (Guitar)

F          C                                Em
Honey bee, she say I got too much sympathy.  

                   Am       G  F
But I can call her anytime.

                   C                                    Em
And if you're lost and you need a little peace from me,

               Am          G  F
Bring all your trouble by…

           C                    Em
Honey bee, how have I hurt you?

                      Am     G  F
C'mon tell your blues to me.

                    C                         Em
Maybe I should live up there in the curtains,

                Am   G  F
On the wings of Mer-cur-y.

      Am                         Em
I was fortunately desperate and turbulently innocent.

F                               C
I was living underneath my body weight.

             Am                                 Em
My eyes were swollen green and hazy, sick from grief and hate and envy,

      F                     Em
I was crawling up inside my head.

                    C            G              Am
And all I seemed to find is that everything has chains.

                       F            G         Am
And all this life just feels like a series of dreams.

                   C        G              F
Selected poems and lovers I can't begin to name.

                 C         G                 C
And all in all I find that nothing stays the same.

          Am                              Em
And I was crazy like the moon for you and head over my heels for you.

    F                              C
And never would I change or compro-mise.

    Am                                 Em
But something in my mind does things I can't contain for anything.

F                                              Em
Last night I don't think sleep even touched my eyes.

                    C            G              Am
And all I seemed to find is that everything has chains.

                       F            G         Am
And all this life just feels like a series of dreams.

                   C        G              F
Selected poems and lovers I can't begin to name.

                 C         G                 C
And all in all I find that nothing stays the same.

                    C            G              Am
And all I seem to find is how everything has chains.

                       F            G         Am
And all my life just feels like an idiot dream.

                   C        G              F
Selected poems and lovers I never seen again.

                 C         G                 C
And all in all I find that nothing stays the same.
