Gsus4 Em/G
poor boy
Cadd9 C6sus4* Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
your wife is in hard labor
Gsus4 Em/G
the rhythm you know
Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
is pulsing and drifting to the grave
Gsus4 Em/G
when you come too
Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm
you'll be asking yourself just one question
C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm
was I always this way?
C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
was I always this way?
Gsus4 Em/G
think back a year
Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
when everything stood at the surface
Gsus Em/G Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4
bandage your cuts because you don't know what swims underneath
Em/G Dm C6sus4
Gsus4 Em/G
hold tight
Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G
the bondage of this life is slipping
Dm C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G
why shouldn't it be me?
Dm C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G
why shouldn't it be me?
Dm C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm Em/G
C6sus4~
when I come back
Gsus4 Em/G
you'll be the brightest star
Dm Em/G
in the black
C6sus4~ C6sus4~
when there are days
Gsus4 Em/G Dm Gsus4
that you want the call we're all waiting for
Em/G
think back
Gsus4 Em/G
poor boy
Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
life is in hard labor
Gsus4 Em/G Cadd9 C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm C6sus4
go buy the flowers you'll leave on its grave
Gsus4 Em/G Cadd9
then with the goal of movement
C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm
now one this is different
C6sus4 Gsus4 Em/G Dm
you don't want to change
C6sus4 Gsus4~
I don't want to change
end on Gsus4
Enjoy :)
