Key: G

Intro:

 Em9   G  | D  : 2x


Verse 1:
  Em9                G            D
Stomping 'round the village with you again
Em9         G              D
I'm clapped out on up and downers tonight
 Em9                 G            D
Both know what we're in for tomorrow
  Em9         G            D
Drinking anything as a pre-emptive strike
 Em9                G               D
God, she's full of pain, and I know it
       Em9          G             D
Got a kink in her smile that her dad put there
    Em9                  G           D
We both know that we're gonna regret it
 Em9            G              D
Selfishly, we stay to dodge a lonely night

Chorus:
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
       Em9           G                D
I'll shoulder it a while if you just want a night off
 Em9            G       D
You and I are dangerous, fucked lovers
  Em9       G           D
Whittling away at this bag of rocks


Verse 2:
 Em9          G            D
Carrying each other up the avenue
     Em9          G       D
The city's never felt so tired
 Em9              G            D
Half the joint's bombed after COVID
     Em9                    G        D
My friends reached for the rope and tied
     Em9             G            D
Oh, God, how can we keep missing signals?
   Em9          G            D
We almost lost Joey on that horrid, dark night
      Em9             G            D
She grabbed me by the arm, kissed me to disarm
    Em9              G              D
The anger that I've carried like a rock my whole life


Chorus:
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
       Em9           G                D
I'll shoulder it a while if you just want a night off
 Em9            G       D
You and I are dangerous, fucked lovers
  Em9       G           D
Whittling away at this bag of rocks


Instrumental:
 Em9   G  | D  : 4x


Bridge:
      Em9          G         D
I'm drinking for two down in Arthur's bar
       Em9           G         D
This place severely lost its charm
     Em9            G            D
I'm working on the words that I would have said
     Em9            G     D
Had you have still been around
     Em9                G             D
Oh, God, what's in the water in this town?
    Em9       G              D
So many good people falling victim to the dog
    Em9               G          D
So call me if you're down, I'll help you come around
     Em9         G              D
The kettle on a rolling boil until it's sorted out


Chorus:
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
       Em9           G                D
I'll shoulder it a while if you just want a night off
 Em9            G       D
You and I are dangerous, fucked lovers
  Em9       G           D
Whittling away at this bag of rocks


Post-Chorus:
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy
Em9        G        D
Everybody here's got something heavy


Outro:
  Em9               G            D
Stumble 'round the village with you again
Em9         G              D
I'm clapped out on up and downers tonight
