Chords with lyrics
(Bass)
F#F#
Got on the train come
C#C#
She went out to the city
BB F#F#
Lookin' for a better job
F#F#
He was in trouble
C#C#
He said over the siren
BB F#F#
"I love you, but I'm just a slob"
F#F#
This is hardage
C#C#
Its something to remember
BB F#F#
The theatre is for wasting time
F#F#
Working is lousy
C#C#
And college is for quitters
BB F#F#
Some symmetry is hard to find
(enter piano and guitar)
F#F#
I'm tired and battered
BB
Worn the sole off my shoes
F#F#
I'm rustled and torn
BB
Short of nothing to lose
F#F#
I'm tired and battered
BB F#F#
Sick of all these people
F#F#
Go out your front door
C#C#
You'll never be so sorry
BB F#F#
The city life can make you born
F#F#
When I was a child
C#C#
I never stop to question
BB F#F#
Just what on earth I do this for
F#F#
Looking in the corner
C#C#
A augmentedA quiet television
BB F#F#
Remember when you saw me there?
F#F#
Kissing your ass for
C#C#
A augmentedA 100 thousand questions
BB F#F#
I miss it, but I just don't care
F#F#
I'm tired and battered
BB
Worn the sole off my shoes
F#F#
I'm rustled and torn
BB
Short of nothing to lose
F#F#
I'm tired and battered

I'm looking to get better

Think maybe you could show me how?

If you really love me

Quit petting for affection

And burn the fucking house down now
