🎸 Intro: 

E A



🎸 Verse:

E                          A
You were like a toilet bowl at the end of the rainbow
E                           A
Something like a pot of gold stuck under my pillow
E                     A
Keeping me up at night you kept my head spinning
E                      C#         B             G# A
And wishing there were windows to throw you from, throw you from


🎸 Chorus:

E      C
Day or night
B          Em
Fuck if I know
        C            B             Em
Hard to tell with no fucking window
    C
And sundials
     B               Em                C
What good are sundials once the sun is gone?
B
What are you good for?


🎸 Interlude: 

E A E


🎸 Verse 2:

E                     A
And we laid in my bed like a train wreck
E                   A
And we both got laid like concrete
E                           A
And we fought like soldiers
E      C# B  G#  A
But we died.. We died like flies


🎸 Chorus 2: 

E      C
Day or night
B          Em
Fuck if I know
        C            B             Em
Hard to tell with no fucking window
    C
And sundials
     B               Em                C
What good are sundials once the sun is gone?
B
What are you good for?
