I Am Kloot - To the Brink chords
Start Jamming...
[N] Do you [A] fancy a drink?
I know a place called The Brink.
[F#] Do you wanna go [C#m] there?
I [F#m] can buzz off your smile, [A] there may be people [E] you know there.
They've got [C#m] no rule of thumb, so [A] on the counter I strum with my fingers.
[C#m]
And I [F#m] adore the surprise [B] of tomorrow's sunrise, [E] so I linger.
[C#]
I raise [F#] a glass, a smile or two,
[D] this stuff strips the light [D#m]
from [A] your bones.
[C#]
And I would [F#m] like to stay with you,
[B]
[E] but I leave alone.
[A] You're the guy on the [E] bus who's [A] not quite one of [C#] us.
You hear laughter, [F#m]
and they won't let you in,
[B] cos everyone knows what [E] you're after.
[D]
So [A] you wear the disguise of your brilliant eyes [F#m] drenched [C#] in flamboyance,
[C#m] [C#]
and you [F#m] sit by the bar, much [B] to everyone else's [E] annoyance.
[C#]
I raise a [F#m] glass, a smile or two,
[D] this stuff strips the [D#m] light from [A] your bones.
[C#]
And I would
[F#] like to [F#m] leave with you,
[B]
but I [D#m]
stay [E] alone.
