Vampirism Is For Poseurs Song For The Living chords by Ramshackle Glory

Chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Novice

D MajorD            A augmentedA
I don't believe in heaven, I do believe in hell
G+G                A augmentedA
It's down the street from here, And we both lived there for years
D MajorD                A augmentedA                G+G
We burned the calendars for warmth, And the alarm clocks just for fun
                A augmentedA
We closed the blinds to make goddamn sure
            G+G
That we could never see the sun
            FF
You could set a watch by the bottle returns
    B minorBm       G+G            D MajorD    F#F#
And the ashtrays overflowing on the floor
B minorBm       D MajorD        G+G        A augmentedA    A...
Nothing's free but time when you're so damn poor
D MajorD                B minorBm
But the past was death row, And the future's a battlefield
G+G                A augmentedA
I hope we choose the right war
D MajorD                    B minorBm
Because I've been fist fighting gravity, Since the day I learned how to breathe
G+G                    A augmentedA
And I still wake up On the same cold floor i fell asleep on
D MajorD        A augmentedA        G+G    G+G
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday
D MajorD        A augmentedA        G+G    G+G
I can't do it alone, but I shall be free someday
D MajorD        A augmentedA        B minorBm           G+G
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
D MajorD        A augmentedA        B minorBm       G+G
Vampirism is for poseurs in junior high

Trumpet x2: D MajorD B minorBm F# minorF#m G+G

D MajorD                A augmentedA
We made our own postal system, To cross the continent
G+G                A augmentedA
As long as freight trains run And loners pick up dreamers with thumbs
        D MajorD
Who needs governments to get a letter to you
        A augmentedA
Or a mixtape to me, or a postcard to Johnstown?
    G+G
What's a thousand miles between friends?
    A augmentedA
What's a friend that's not worth crossing a country?
    D MajorD        A augmentedA
But I owe money and broken hearts
            G+G
From Philly to Sydney and back to Vermont
    D MajorD
(yeeeah) I regret a million things
        G+G        A augmentedA    A...
And that's only what I haven't forgot
D MajorD                B minorBm
But the past was a mine field, And right now is a prison break
G+G                A augmentedA
I hope we make it alive
D MajorD                B minorBm
When who we are doesn't stop where the law begins
G+G                A augmentedA
Then we'll storm their court houses to survive
D MajorD        A augmentedA    G+G        G+G
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday
D MajorD        A augmentedA    G+G        G+G
I can't do it alone, but we shall be free someday
D MajorD        A augmentedA        B minorBm           G+G
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
D MajorD        A augmentedA        B minorBm       G+G
