One of My Kind
guitar chords lyrics
Intro: F
Capo:3
F
I can't live in this city
But I was born here
Dm
And I know all these people
Where they went to high school
Bb
Where they got their angle
Here they waited tables
C
Still call me brother
Like Cain and Abel
F
There, see all those old men
How'd they get so swollen?
Dm
I got so many broke friends
Who say I owe them
Bb
From when we were children
How did it happen?
C
Where is it going?
Dm
Is that your question, man?
Bb Dm
Where does all your frustration lie?
C Dm
Why are you pulling out your hair at night?
Bb
Just try and have a good time
F C Dm Am Bb
All the rest aside
F
You're still one of my kind
F Am Dm C
F
I can't think in this city
But I remember
Dm
I know every story that it ever told me
Bb
Well, I got the blueprint
To create my own myth
C
That's what made it tragic
Like a summer snowdrift
F
Yeah, going to call my first love
Meet her at the new club
Dm
Tell her all that I've done
Finally be forgiven
Bb
And get good and drunk
Bb4/Bb
Like it feels you're young
C
There are things against us
Dm
But I will fight tooth and nail
Bb Dm
Stand in the sickening sunshine
C Dm
After staying out all night
Bb
And maybe it's the good life
F C Dm Am Bb
All the rest aside
C Dm Am Bb
The rest aside
C Dm Am Bb
The rest aside
F
You're still one of my kind
F Am Dm C
F
I can't live in this city
But I'll probably die here
Dm
Maybe that's how you feel
Like a poisoned cornfield
Bb
Like a best friend back-stabbed
An abandoned train track
C
We're living straight-lined
F
Are you one of my kind?
F Am Dm C
F
