You Am I - Purple-Sneakers chords
Start Jamming...
[C] [E]
[G]
[E] Had a scratch only you could itch Underneath the Clay Point Bridge
And now every boy in a knitted [G] vest Has got some precedent
[E] So he took a personality pill And something written to swill
And now every fire has gone out [G] And every heart that wanted to kill
Has [F#m] gone to day
If [E] [B]
[E] you thought that one said sound We'll have to hide till the wise are bound
Cause there ain't no room in the city today [G] For explanations that you just can't say
[E] There's no doubt what shame can mean In purple sneakers and grey jeans
And every walk to school that once made sense [G] Sure felt like an accident, but it's [A] gone today
[C#m] [E] [B]
[E] Remember [B] Troy and Mom?
[C#m] There's a train to the [F#] Louder Town
[A] But do you need somebody?
[Am] Feel somebody
[E] Every day that one said sound We'll have to hide till the wise are town
[G#m] I don't hate, I just feel better [G] When no one else is around
[E] So he took a personality pill And something written to swill
And now [G#m] every fire has gone out [G] And every heart that wanted to kill
[A] Has gone to day
[E] [B]
[E] Remember [B] Troy and Mom?
[C#m] There's a train to [F#] the Louder Town
[A] But do you need somebody?
[Am] Feel somebody
[E] Shame on [B] them ways [C#m] They're making sure that [F#] the poor man stays
[A] But do you need somebody?
[Am] [E]
