guitar chords lyrics
C
Throw them down your throat.
C
Many rivers to cross.
C
Laugh under granite-grey skies,
G F C
As if it's their loss.
C C
Slip on your floor; bound aftermath.
C
That which has stolen your years.
G F
Son, don't become one more shadow.
C
Don't drop your anchor here.
C
Broken down liver and withered frame.
C
Lungs wrinkled like old balloons.
C
Dampen your spirits by sunrise
G
And swear at the moon.
C F Em
'Cause sometimes it's like trying to breathe through a pillow,
G F C
Trying to dance on the tightrope in the pouring rain.
C F Em
Sometimes it's like, like you're treading on egg-shells,
G F C
Trying to floss up your top-set with a rusty chain.
F G C
It's all because of you
F G C
It's all because of you
F G C
It's all because of you
F G C
It's all because of you
F G C
It's all because of you
F G C
It's all because of you

Sometimes it's like, like you're treading on egg-shells,

Trying to floss up your top-set with a rusty chain.
