Verse:
(Hold each for a 2 count)
G                      D           Em              C          A  A     C  C
It's my fathers' voice dreaming of sailors sailin' off in the mornin'
        G               D            Em              C  A A  C C
For the air-conditioned rooms at the top of the stairs
    G          D           Em         C           A A  C C
His jaw's been broken, his bandage is wrapped too tight
    G               D            Em           C           A A  C C
His fangs have been pulled and I really wanna see you tonight

There's bourbon on the breath of the singer you love so much
He takes all his words from the books that you don't read anyway
His jaw's been broken, his bandage is wrapped too tight
His fangs have been pulled and I really wanna see you tonight

Someone ties a bow in my backyard to show me love
My voice is climbin' walls, smoking, and I want love
My jaw's been broken, my heart is wrapped in ice
My fangs have been pulled and I really wanna see you tonight

       G        D             Em        G7
And it makes no difference to me
         C         A*      G         A
How they cried all over on the seas
          C          Cm            G
When it's hot in the poor places tonight
Eb      C        G
I'm not goin' outside
