The Lawrence Arms – Like A Record Player (Guitar)

     C
I'm like a record player

G
I keep going 'round

G
With the needle in my arm

        F
Making someone else's sound

     C
And lately I've been dreaming

    G
Of blue and empty skies

G
But nothing like that

              F
Ever crosses red and weary eyes

           C
I've been traveling with bottles

     G
I'm working close with cans

                                  F
I'm sitting up for hours with my best friends in a van

          C
And they say that this ain't living

       G
But I don't know what they mean

G
'Cause I don't feel dead

              F
And baby you look alive to me

         Dm                            F
It's the only game that I know how to play

     Am                F
The time, the time to say goodbye

     C         G    F
Has passed us long ago

    Am                F
And I would say I've overstayed

    C               G
My welcome but you know

                              C
I don't think I'm ever going home

C
I don't need a doctor

        G
'Cause anyone can see

           F
That I've had all of these shots

              C               G
But lord I'm still as sick as I can be

C
I think I need to rest my eyes

    G
so baby come with me

F                                C            G
Lay down here beside me keep me warm while I sleep

                F
'Cause there's trouble on the way

G
Huh! You best believe

      C               C/B
There always is don't worry

         Am               F
Sit and have a drink with me

F
When we go all we've got is

       G
these days that we've made

    C               C/B               Am          F      G   F
And I don't want to waste them being wistful or afraid

    G                      F
Without all of you I'd be even lower down

     C          C/B             F
You know what I want to say but I can't get it out

     Am                F
The time, the time to say goodbye

     C         G    F
Has passed us long ago

    Am                F
And I would say I've overstayed

    C               G
My welcome but you know

                                C   Am  G  F
I don't think we're ever going home

C   Am  G  F
Home

C   Am  G  F
Home

C                    Am         G    F

    C
