Chords with lyrics
This is such a lovely song, one of my favourites. It has such a gorgeous nostalgic feeling. Enjoy :)
G+G C majorC
You live out where the street ends
G+G C majorC D MajorD
In a basement apartment With one of your friends
E minorEm D MajorD
And the tap drips all night, water torture in the sink
C majorC D MajorD C majorC
The furnace is burning but it's still cold i think
G+G D MajorD
I can smell the bleach that they use in the hall
G+G C majorC D MajorD
But it can't clean the dirt off of me
E minorEm C majorC
It's seeping under the door, in across the floor
D MajorD
It's starting to hurt
C majorC G+G
Every time I breathe
C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC
Every time I try to leave
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Every time I breathe
G+G C majorC
Now the toaster sticks and the empties are piled
G+G D MajorD
I haven't been up the stairs in awhile now
E minorEm D MajorD
I gotta wash the sheets on my bed, gotta watch the things that go unsaid
D MajorD C majorC G+G
And god I wish we'd leave it at this
D MajorD G+G C majorC
And every evening you open the door, you come down
D MajorD C majorC G+G
There's nothing like watching tv all night underground
D MajorD C majorC
And no one is watching me slide
D MajorD E minorEm
Below street level
C majorC C majorC
Barely alive
G+G C majorC
Now we live out where the street ends
G+G D MajorD
In a basement apt. Just like our friends
BB C majorC
We always said that we were different
G+G
But you know now that we weren't
G+G
'Cause there's holes in all the bottles
BB
And my lungs hurt
C majorC G+G
Every time I breathe
C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC
Every time I try to leave
C majorC G+G D7D7 G+G
Every time I breathe
