Dm   G
Baby
                        C    E
Empires crumble all the time
Dm             G
Pay it no mind
                             C    E
You just happened to witness mine
Dm       G                             C    E
Don't let all the light fall from your eyes
Dm        G
Come come

Empires crumble all the time

Chorus:
A                  F       G
How can a dismally typical Tuesday
D                     F           G
Delivering blues with lead in its canopy
A                    F            G
Scruff me pin me and let's make a man of me
D                           F          G
Turn up the pounding of the hearts all around
A                              F           G
And I'm bound to get busy with checking on the living
D                                     F             G
And I'll wring out their hands and my eyes with the sobbing
A                                                              F#m
But how can a bland unremarkable typical Tuesday be Day of the Dead?

Verse 2:
Dm   G
Baby
                        C    E
Empires crumble all the time
Dm             G
Pay it no mind
                             C    E
You just happened to witness mine
Dm       G                             C    E
Don't let all the light fall from your eyes
Dm        G
Come come
                        C    E
Empires crumble all the time

Chorus:
A                  F       G
How can a dismally typical Tuesday
D                     F           G
Delivering blues with lead in its canopy
A                    F            G
Scruff me pin me and let's make a man of me
D                           F          G
Turn up the pounding of the hearts all around
A                              F           G
And I'm bound to get busy with checking on the living
D                                     F             G
And I'll wring out their hands and my eyes with the sobbing
A                                                              F#m
But how can a bland unremarkable typical Tuesday be Day of the Dead?

Dm   G
Baby
                        C    E
