Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: D G B E


Intro:

G C G
G C G


Verse:

                 G
Pack yourself a toothbrush dear
                 C       G
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
                                         C       G
Take a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings out
                   Em         D
'Cause if we don't leave this town
               C       G
We might never make it out
          Em      D                 G
I was not born to drown, baby come on


Verse:

                   G
Forget what Father Brennan said
            C       G
We were not born in sin

Leave a note on your bed
                C           G
Let your mother know you're safe
           Em       D
And by the time she wakes
                  C           G
We'll have driven through the state
                  Em          D                 G
We'll have driven through the night, baby come on


Chorus:

        G
If the sun don't shine on me today
           C       Em        D       G
And if the subways flood and bridges break

Will you lay yourself down and dig your grave
            C    Em      D          G
Or will you rail against your dying day


Verse:

            G                              C       G
And when we looked outside, couldn't even see the sky

How do you pay the rent, is it your parents
      Em        D                 C    G
Or is hard work dear, holding the atmosphere
              Em        D
I don't wanna live like that


Chorus:

        G
If the sun don't shine on me today
           C       Em        D       G
And if the subways flood and bridges break


Bridge:

Em  C   G             Em   D  G
Jesus   Christ, can't save me tonight
                         Em   D        G
Put on your dress, yes wear something nice
             G      Em     D  G
Decide on   me, yea decide on us
Em      G       Em     C   G
Oh, oh, oh, Illinois, Illinois


Verse:

Pack yourself a toothbrush dear
                 C       G
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
                                         C       G
Take a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings out
                   Em         D
'Cause if we don't leave this town
               C       G
