Playhouse chords by Eliza McLamb

• Difficulty: Beginner

♫ Verse 1:

C                            Am
Staring at the mirror in the bathroom
Cmaj7                     Em
Sink into the girl I am away from you
Dmaj7                                Em
I’ve been sick but haven’t been drinking much
F
I bet that it’s the other stuff




♫ Verse 2:

C                                 Am
I hang out at your house with the tennis court
Cmaj7                            Em
I eat the fancy dinners with the tiny fork
C                                 Am
You have a kind of playfulness that I adore
F
You’ve never really had to grow up before

♫ Chorus:

Cmaj7
I guess I could play house with you
Am
I guess life could be easy for me too
Dm
If I do
Cmaj7
But I know debt and I know dirt
Em
I know the unrelenting earth
Am
And it’s true that
Dm
I would choose that

♫ Verse 3:

C                                  Am
I always got the sense you felt rеspected
Cmaj7                                 Em
When I trеated you just like a little kid
C                            Am
I bring up the money and you throw a fit
F
I say that I’m sorry but I don’t mean it

♫ Verse 4:

C                                  Am
And you’re the only person that can make me cry
Cmaj7                                 Em
Laughing 'til I feel the joy split my sides
C                            Am
Heartache settles in hot and tight
F
I love you but I can’t keep putting up fights

♫ Chorus:

Cmaj7
I guess I could play house with you
Am
I guess life could be easy for me too
Dm
If I do
Cmaj7
But I know debt and I know dirt
Em
I know the unrelenting earth
Am
And it’s true that
Dm
I would choose that

♫ Outro:

Am                                      F
I still have a shirt you bought me last year
Cmaj7                           Dm
And it’s worth about half of my rent here
Am
I did not object
Em
I took what’s given
F
Just like you did
