Capo 4


Intro: C (8 bars)

                 C
I can't live this way
                Am
Breaking all my rules again
              Em
Choking on my gin
                     B
You push 'til I give in
                      C
'Til the loser always wins

                 Am
Somehow with his beckoning
                  Em
Bruising with his threads
                  B
Confusing what he says
                     C
But I won't live that way (ay-ee-ay)
                         Am
Though I kind of want to anyway
                Em
Kind of want to play
                            B
With all the pretty and the pure
                     C
Well I return to the earth
                Am
I return to the dust
                      Em
No more beauty by the pound
                  B
And this I do not... trust



       Am         C
'Cause nothing forgives
F         Em
Rules and narrow margins
G            Am
(ehhh, ehhh, ehhhhhh)
       C
In our lives
     F         Em
It's rules and narrow margins
           G           C
But I will slip by (-yyyyy)



                 C
I can't find the time
                 Em
I don't know the future
                      Am
I couldn't bring that past back
                    G
I waste what little time I have



                     C
But I swear I almost touched it
                          Em
Yet it slipped between my fingers
                     Am
Sent shivers down my spine
                     G
Cut a splinter in my mind



              Am        C
But it wasn't nothing, again
     F         Em
This rules and narrow margins
G            Am
(ehhh, ehhh, ehhhhhh)
        C
But our life
   F         Em
Is rules and narrow margins
           G           C
But I will slip by



F         Em
Rules and narrow margins
G
(eeeh, ehhh)
F         Em
Rules and narrow margins
           G           C
But I will slip by (-yyyy)
