Chords

[Verse 1]
Em            Am                 G
In the secret caverns underneath West Covina

Am                 Em
Half desperate for peace

F
With the surface dwellers

Dm            G Dm  Am
But coming to no    conclusions

F          G       F            G
And now we emerge, sky grey and misty
[Verse 2]
F                    Em Am Em
The Grey King in his new   Pontiac

G                       Am   C
Some of us sworn to the effort

Dm
Trying to get our shapes back

F            G   Dm      Am
Teeth filed down to fine points

F             G      F             G
Framework too tight, strain at the joints
[Chorus 1]
F          C                   G
And I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

Am           C                F
I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

C              G                     F        Fm
I'm pretty hardcore but I'm not that hardcore
[Instrumental] Eb Dm Ab Gm Eb Dm G [Verse 3]
Dm                    Gm
Load into the Grand Am

Doomed sailors

Gm                Dm
Borne high by the waves

Eb
Wild with wonder

Cm           F Cm         Gm
Leather and lace and good friends

Eb           F     Eb           F
Most of them good, most of them friendly
[Verse 4]
Eb                   Dm  Gm       Dm
The Grey King at the rail, sparks flying

F                     Gm       Bb
Three of us in the car with him

Cm
Scared of dying

Eb       F  Cm        Gm
All eyes on the front seat

Eb            F    Eb            F
Assuming his form, reborn in the heat
[Chorus 2]
Eb          Bb                    F
And I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

Gm      Bb                    Eb
I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

Cm      Bb                    Gm
I'm hardcore but I'm not that hardcore

Bb             F                     Eb
I'm pretty hardcore but I'm not that hardcore
Eb
