I Hate This Town chords by John Grant

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: Novice

NOTES - During the chorus, play G the second way I have posted below as it makes
for an easier chord change.
        Also! Don't mix up Gmaj7 and G7. There's a subtle difference in them but
you notice it when playing along to the song. Good luck! :)

       G           C              Dm            F
  Horrifying as it was for me to see your face today,
            C                  Bb               F
  I guess I knew that it would happen at some point.
        G            C                  Dm                F
  And I dreaded it because I knew, That you would be so kind.
                 C                   Bb                 F
  You're good at that; you've got it right down to a science.


      G                                    D
  So you observe the strict rules laid out in the books of etiquette
      F                             C
  And tell me you hope I enjoy my stay.
             G                                    D                                F
  And I feel numb, and I can't believe that I was stupid enough to leave my bed today.
                                   C        D
  If I'm so smart, then why is this happening?


              G
  You know I hate this fucking town,
                   Gmaj7
  You cannot even leave your fucking house,
                        C                           G       Gmaj7
  Without running into someone who no longer cares about you.
                   G
  Somebody whom you desperately want to see,
                         G7
  But you know it's only going to cause more grief,
               C
  But there is nothing left to say,
               F           D
  And he can't hear you anyway.


Instrumental -   G  C  Dm  F
                 C  Bb  F


            G                C              Dm                F          C
  It's so confusing 'cause I really want To hate you, but my intellect reminds me
             Bb              F
  That that doesn't make no sense.
         G                 C                    Dm                 F
  And I wanted to be your friend but I couldn't pull it off in the end.
            C                  Bb                        F
  And I'm disappointed with myself because I thought I could.


           G                                          D
  But then again you always made it clear that you do not care either way
                  F                                 C
  Which begs the question; "How can I still claim to love you?"
             G                                    D
  You told me time and time again that you don't lose you always win
              F                              C        D
  And that to make an effort would just be beneath you.


              G
  You know I hate this fucking town,
                   Gmaj7
  You cannot even leave your fucking house,
                        C                           G       Gmaj7
  Without running into someone who no longer cares about you.
                   G
  Somebody whom you desperately want to see,
                         G7
  But you know it's only going to cause more grief,
               C
  But there is nothing left to say,
               F           D
  And he can't hear you anyway.
