VERSE (C=Cadd9)
D
the cross in the middle of the room
but the ghost who sleeps in the kitchen sink
C
and the one who shines my shoes all put the money in a bag
G
and left the house before the blizzards came
D
the summer's got his teeth in me again
but my bones are sweating and my clothes are gone
and i can't get enough to drink
C G D
so now the place to be is where the moonlight never blinks
C G D
and i'd love to explain but truth be told i'm not sure what to think
D
so now i'm going to bed
D
i woke up with my head stuffed full of fog
beyond it out into the livingroom
until i couldn't see the floors or walls
C G D
and as the sun cut through i finally found a place to lay
D
the skeleton in my closet left his home
now he sits up on the rooftop and shouts my secrets with a megaphone
C G D
and as the shit hit the fan i packed my bags and caught the train
C G D
and i'd like to point the finger but there's no one left to blame
C G D
now there's nothing left to protect me from the rain
and it's really coming down..
BACK TO INTRO then...
D G Bm A

|played throughout following:
D G
it's the thought that burns you out
Bm A
it's the hook that drags you under
D G
and it's the grin that rats you out
Bm A
it's a snowstorm in the summer
D G
it's the sky that spoils the cloud
Bm A
it's the burn marks on your mother
D G
and it's the thought that burns you out
Bm A
it's the hook that drags you under and so on..

D Cadd9 G
boring and twisting.. a moth stuck in the ground
Cadd9 G
has made a house of your lightbulbs
D Cadd9
mottled and crooked
G D
a hiccup in the sound
Cadd9 G
is like a smudge on the tv
Cadd9 G
like a crick in your neck
Cadd9 G D
like mistakes that you never regret
Bm A
it's the look upon your face
D G
it's the rat that lost the race
Bm A
it's the shivers in your spine
D G
it's the heart you'll never find
Bm A
it's the names in wet cement
D G
it's the things you can't forget
Bm A
it's the fear of growing old
D G
it's the life you'll never know
Bm A
it's the scratches in your teeth
D G
it's the time you left for weeks
Bm A D
it's the age when you didn't care, darling
D Cadd9
cutthroat and ambling
G D
the help that's never around
Cadd9 G
just like a wish on your birthday
D Cadd9
tired and empty
G D
attacks on what you found
Cadd9 G
is like a spot on invention
Cadd9 G
like a bug in your food
Cadd9 G D
like a thing that's too good to be true.. and so.
