F# Ebm
And when the floor gave out
Bbm G# C#
we made our way to the ground
G# F# Ebm
And laid for hours In the ashen
Bbm G#
dirt we knew we didn?t
C# G# F#
have much But it was ours
verse 1:
Ebm
Between loneliness
C# G#
and some broken love
C#
I?d choose none
G# F#
of the above
Ebm
They say we wanted it
C# G#
a little too much
Interlude: Bbm G# C# x2
verse 2:
Bbm G# C#
Oh it's a distant land
Bbm
The one where we live
G#
But it slipped from our
C# Bbm G#
hands The grass overgrown
C#
the broken family home
Bbm G#
See the place where we grew up
Chorus 2:
C#
Turned a circus
G#
for gamblers
Ebm F#
and gawkers and thieves
C# G#
When the word got around
Ebm
we spilled out on
F#m
the streets
C# G#
As the banks decorate
Ebm B(hold)
every house in defeat
Chorus 3:
C# C#/F
All set to expire
Bbm
A fighter past his
Eb/G
prime My daddy said
G# C#/F
No one likes a whiner
G# F# Ebm F#(Hold)
But I got shiners on both eyes
Interlude: Bbm G# F# C#
verse 3:
Bbm G#
Boy is there a job for
C# Ebm Bbm
you? And if there was
G# C# Ebm
Would you even want to?
Chorus 4:
Ebm
Cause when the floor gave out
Bbm G# C#
we made our way to the ground
G# F#
And laid for hours
Ebm
Cut up and hurt you
Bbm G#
held me firm
C#
The world moved
G# F#
on without us
verse 4:
Ebm
my honesty?s
G#
a little too much
C#
But there?s no one
G# F#
fighting for us
Ebm
Is there something here
C# F#m(hold)
that you can still love?
Chorus 5:
C# C#/F
All set to expire
Bbm
A fighter past his
Eb/G
prime My daddy said
G# C#/F
No one likes a whiner
G# F#(hold)
But I got shiners on both eyes
Bridge:
Ebm
Still my memory
F#m
stays and replays
C#
The first time
G#/C Bbm Eb
that we held hands
Ebm
Or was it our
world at all?
C#
Young and racing
towards nothing
Bbm
Was it our world at all?
G#
Burning headlong with
the blinders on
Ebm
Sold all my stock of
C#
the American dream
Bbm
More than someone to fuck
G
Before we all fall asleep
Verse 5:
Ebm
I see a broken world
C# G#
coming for us
And Maria
C#
It's you and me
G# F#
Fighting for love
Ebm C#
If we can believe
G#
it's enough
Bbm
We?ll take the bombs
G# C#
from the great above
Ebm Bbm
from the great above
G# Ebm
from the great above
Chorus 6:
C# C#/F
All set to expire
Bbm
A fighter past his
Eb/G
prime My daddy said
G#(hold) C#/F
No one likes a whiner
Bbm G# F# F#m
But I got shiners on both eyes
C# C#/F
All set to expire
Bbm
A fighter past his
Eb/G
prime My daddy said
G# C#/F
No one likes a whiner
G#m F# F#(hold)
But I got
