Always An Anchor chords by Benjamin Miles

Intro

G    Em    5x

C

G
I lost a love that loved me completely
ranks of regret they batter and beat me
Em
Im never going back again
without a lot more medicine a few less friends
G
Somewhere back in my old hometown
theres an alright kid dragging an anchor around
Em
It looks a lot like a frown
goddamn its hard to turn an anchor upside down

C
                                                   G                           Em
When smile ain’t a smile, just some teeth messing with your mind...
  Am                                                         G             C
Well you’re right to fear the fear you fear you’ll find

G    Em
C

G
Wake up in the morning and I float downtown
I watch the fish fill the filthy fucking city that drowned
Em
Above that big hole in the ground
where my fine friend fear had first been found.

                                                                            G
I remember seventeen
                                                    Em  C
I remember being honest, horny, healthy and clean
  G                                           Em
I remember believing briefly that Id been born to be the one
Am                                      G        C
It seems something worse than stupid now its done

Em  Am   C

                                                                               C
A lot of people I know are walking round
  G                              Em
wondering is it ever gonna be their day?
Am                                  G            C
From what Ive seen so far man... Its no way

C
Not today
Not today
Not today

G                         Em                  C
