My Sister My Spouse chords by Cass Mccombs

Chords with lyrics

DmDm     G+G
My sister, my spouse
DmDm               G+G
Are you comfortable with these words?
E MajorE             A minorAm Am/GAm/G
To me, they still seem to jingle
D/F#D/F#       FF
like a pair of a badman's spurs

My sister, my spouse
you're burning at both ends
I said, "Is there a fire on the mountain?"
You replied, "Well, that all depends."

You know, our parent's heroes
are all movie actors
Necks tilted up to the angel of light
I can admit to the same allure

They say movies deal with archetypes
You know I'll try on any mask
Brother, Son, Husband
A augmentedA separate face for separate tasks

Death-card, Scorpio, Little devil
Villain is obviously most fun
Singer, Poet, Publicman
Well, easier said than done

Do-nothing, Roop-scoop, Mooch
Hell, I can take it
Loyal friend and confident
Honey, i could never fake it

"My sister, my spouse":
Rules of engagement!
You've been working so hard
We need a change, I can take a hint

Write down on these tears of newspaper
words you would like to see disappear
Let ash fly above the rusty stovetop
I'm going to start with the word "sincere"
