The Dozens - Amelia Curran

This is a pretty simple version of the general outline of the chord progression.  
There's not a ton of guitar in the mix of the album recording so I use "5" chords 
(AKA power chords) to approximate the bassline.  When it says "descending bass" 
you play the notes B - A - G - F# - E on the 5th and 6th strings.  Hope you like it!

E5 (022xxx@1)All my lovers think I'm lovely in the morning when I wake
       B5 (x244xx@1)                             E5When (022xxx@1)I roll in folds of slumber, when I caress I give and take
       A5 (x022xx@1)                                E5All (022xxx@1)my enemies are just like me: they're a fatalist mistake
    B5 (x244xx@1)                    (descending bass) E5An (022xxx@1)abandoning of deities, the slowest interstate.

AmLet (x02210@1)the bakers have their dozens
        FLet (133211@1)the coppers get their man
     B7Let (x21202@1)"Doctor-Lawyer" fix her for you
ECatch (022100@1)her if they can
     AmWhen (x02210@1)all the stars in heaven 
FCannot (133211@1)count on me alone
    B5For (x244xx@1)I'm the lover's enemy
     (descending bass) E5
And I can't be counted on

All my lovers under cover of night wrestle with their wounds
They're pawing sorus(??) piety, they're kissing pleasure's gloom
All my enemies are ready for a drink or two to spite
They're praying for forgiveness and they're ready for a fight

(chorus)

All my lovers love me tirelessly, they listen and they see
They work the web of time itself to fall and capture me
All my enemies they envy every move I've ever made 
The tireless love I've gathered even the rain on my parade

(chorus)
