Key: E
 
🎸 Intro:

E
 
 
🎸 Verse 1:
A
Teenage kicks, with messy kids
         E
A lot of love, and shrugs, a local insurrection
A
And what it was, is what it is
          E
I have to smile when she offers me protection
 
 
🎸 Pre-chorus:
D              A       E
It's all fun until the ashtray's full
D            A            E         A       E   D
You call the man, but the man won't come at all
               E
Here comes the fall

🎸 Chorus:
                            Bm
And it's all good until the birds start chirping
Dm                           A
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working
F#                      Bm
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail
A          E          D
Is at your door again
    A       E
And you're alone again
 
 
🎸 Verse 2:
A
We feel good, but then we should
           E
Because we pay, to feel, to feel like we're perfection
A                                          E
A cheeky half, a proper laugh, and it goes dark
E
And I dance with my reflection
 
 
🎸 Pre-chorus:
D        A             E
It's all fun until the sun comes up
D                       E
You call the man but he won't wake up at all
E
Sunday morning call
 
 
🎸 Chorus:
A                           Bm
And it's all good until the birds start chirping
Dm                           A
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working
F#                      Bm
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail
A          E
Is at your door again
A                          Bm
The look of lust becomes a beast of burden
Dm                          A
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtains
F#                       Bm
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head
            E
And on your own again
E
You're on your own again
 
 
🎸 Bridge:
A           Bm  Dm  A  F#  Bm    E
Na na na na na

The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working

The look of lust becomes a beast of burden
Bm
(Beast of burden)
Dm                          A
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtain
A
(Through the curtain)
F#                       Bm
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head
            E
And on your own again
                        A
You're all alone again
