Deer Tick

Capo: IV

Intro: 
G Am (Em G) (Em Am) (Em G)

Verse 1:
G  Am  Em            G
I----- am the dotted line
    C           Am      Em           G
And you fill me in with whatever you like
C   Am       Em                G
I’m---- just going through the motions
G  Am         Em            G
I---- need an old fashioned potion
        F
There's gotta be some old recipe
                  G
Cause I gotta get drunk
G                         G7
I gotta forget about some things
Verse 2:
C  Am          Em          G
I---- lived in lies all my life
                     Am         Em         G
And I've been living here for a long, long time
    G Am             Em            G
And I know it's been coming down a while now
        Am              Em            G
When it shows, then you get me on the dial
          F
But right now you're half way around the world
               G                                       G7
Maybe I'll see better days, but I'm not so sure I will

Verse 3:
C Am      Em                G
I'm still hanging round and round
                 Am          Em           G
Sometimes it's a racket, but lately not a sound
       Am        Em          G
In the bowels of history and time
       Am              Em             G
I have learned to stay back and never shine
F
Now I feel stupid when I smile
G                                   G7
For not a journey, a circus are our lives

Interlude:
(C Am) Em G Em G (Em Am)

Verse 4:
G       Am          Em           G
I can't make up for everything I waste
           Am           Em             G
And I know that I could never afford a taste
C     Am              Em     G
Of anything that your lovely hands make
        Am          Em       G
It eats away with a force so great
F
Just because it brings a smile to my face
G                                      G7
Such a bad memory, you just can't erase

Verse 5:
C Am        Em      G
I know of a city to steal from
      Am        Em      G
And I know of a city to cheat on
    C Am        Em      G
And I know of a city of sin
               Am      Em         G
And that's the place I wanna meet you in
F
And say hello all over again
G
Romance me, take it back to the beginning
