Rotting Strip / Crooked Fingers G C G D Blurry eyes half bent and I can’t take you sober G C G Tricking off the rotting strip that we’ve been D trudging under Em C G D We ducked into a dim lit room out where the river bends G C G And turned to walk the burning bridge that we would build D C And crossed our hearts half hoping G D C That we could both quit smoking G D C And kick the booze and blow G D C D And one day go make something of ourselves G C G D Glory came and went the night we both slipped under G C G D ‘Neath the row of oil slicks and ancient ugly lovers Em C G D Some they say the price you pay is far too much to spend G C G But they don’t know the cost is fair if for a while D C It keeps your heart from crumbling [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/crooked-fingers/250686.html ] G C And we’d take what we want when we knew what we wanted D G When we wished we had something to lose C G C You were a fine young thing crammed in your tight red vinyl G jeans C Em C D I was a third rate going nowhere burning for nothing to do G C G D Boredom settled in and I can’t take you sober G C G Strewn across the rotting strip that we’ve been building D over Em C G D ‘Til nothing made its wicked way slow creeping into view G C G Where we could watch the burning bridge that we half built D C Across our hearts now broken G D C And we could both quit smoking G D C And kick the booze and blow G D C D And one day go make something of ourselves G C And we’d take what we want when we knew what we wanted D G When we wished we had something to lose C G C You were a fine young thing crammed in your tight red vinyl jeans C Em C D I was a third rate going nowhere burning for nothing to do G C So we branded our hearts and we toasted the stars D G Getting wasted by the light of the moon C G C G you were a two bit tramp - I was a low life lying scum C Em C D We were a bad lay coming undone burning for someone to use  |
