Chords with lyrics
[Intro]
C#C# C#C# F#F# C#C# F#F# C#C#
[Verse]
C#C#
On this cold little parcel of land where our father's fathers lived
F#F# C#C#
The same old trees scraping innocent knees since our grandparents were kids
C#C#
You were born in a terrible storm and your ma said it's a sign
F#F# C#C#
You're never at peace with your bed facing east and your itchy feet like mine
[Chorus]
G# minorG#m F#F# C#C#
We should change our names and go for guts and glory
G# minorG#m F#F# C#C#
Never cut our hair or give a care if we're right
BB F#F# C#C#
'Cause they've got us by the throat, they've got us on a tight-rope
BB F#F# C#C#
You can tell your furious father he can have my guts for garters if he likes (Uh oh!)
[Bridge]
C#C# , C#C# , F#F# , C#C# , F#F# , C#C#
[Verse]
C#C#
Some need like the trunk of a tree to accumulate alone
F#F# C#C#
And in time grow ripe on the vine and I think we might belong
C#C#
On this cold little parcel of land where our father's fathers lived
F#F# C#C#
We scrape our knees climbing innocent trees like our father's fathers did
[Chorus]
G# minorG#m F#F# C#C#
We should change our names and go for guts and glory
G# minorG#m F#F# C#C#
Never cut our hair or give a care if we're right
BB F#F# C#C#
'Cause they've got us by the throat, the've got us on a tight-rope
BB F#F# C#C#
You can tell your furious father he can have my guts for garters if he likes
BB F#F# C#C#
You can tell your furious father he can have my guts for garters if he likes
