Start Jamming...
[Eb]
[F]
[Ab] [Eb]
Breathe like a simple [F] mother
You [Ab] stop there for [Eb] a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't [F] even want to
[Ab] Pay down, check no [Eb] change
Dressed up like [F] a car crash
[Ab] The wheels are turning [Eb] but you're upside [Fm] down
You say when he hits you, you [Eb] don't mind
Because
[Fm] when he hurts you, you're [Eb] still alive
[Cm] Oh, girl, [Eb]
that was
Red light, grey morning
You [Ab] stumble out of [Eb] a hole in the ground
I'm a vampire or a victim
It [Ab] depends on who's [Eb] around
You used to stand to watch the adverts
You'd [Ab] go glib, sink to [Eb] the talk shows
[Ab] And if you look, you look [G] stupid
[Eb] And [Gm] when you talk, you talk like [Ab] me
And when I touch you, you [Bb] don't speak
Good [Ab] school, good to you, [Eb] girl
[Ab] [Fm]
School, I would keep it [Eb] strong
School, [Ab] [Eb]
[Fm] I'd [Ab] be [Eb] your girl
Got away so [F] close
Up [Ab] with the static and [Eb] the radio
And satellite [F] television
You can [Ab] go anywhere
Miami, [Eb]
New [F] Orleans,
[Ab] London, [Eb] Belfast and Berlin
[Fm] [Ab] And if you listen, I can [Eb] talk
And if you jump, you just might [Ab] fall
And if you shout, I know [Bb] who hit you
If [Ebm] I could [Fm] scream, no one at work
Give you [Eb] love, no
[Ab]
Stone, [Eb] you ground, [Ab] scream
[Eb] Spirit, I [Fm] find, scream
[Ab] I'd [Eb] be a
[Cm] Ta-da, [Bb] da-da-da-da-da-da
[Ab] Ta-da da-da-da-da-da
[D] Ta [Cm] [Gm] [Eb]-da [Ab] da-da-da-da-da
Ta-da da-da-da-da-da
[Fm] And [Ab] if you listen, I can [Gm] talk
[Eb] [Gm] And if you [Eb] don't, it is your [Ab] fault.
And if you shout, [Bb] I'm only here to help.
If [Eb] I [Ab] was cute, [Fm] I would [Eb] keep a smile.
[Fm] Stand [Eb] to drown [Ab] in tears.
When [Bb] my spirit is out, I'll [Ab] stand [Eb]
in air.
[F]
[Ab] [Eb]
We [F]
[Ab] [Eb] are caught in [A] a [F] bubble.
It's [Ab] quiet and there's [Eb] no one around.
Just the band and the crowd.
[F] As [Ab] a big room rubs the [Eb] ground, just the body and the clutter.
[N] As a ninja hits the ground.
[E]
