Standard Tuning

CAPO I puts this tab in the same key as in the cd

counting in 4/4 time I strum on every beat and during the chorus I generally
turn those quarter notes into sixteenth to have tempo variations, but do
whatever feels/sounds right to you! 

verse 1:

C (x32010@1)                                       AmIt's (x02210@1)one hundred and nine degrees in this crowded room
Am (x02210@1)                    FNo (133211@1)room to breathe with walls as cold as a gallery
FThis (133211@1)is no place for me
CSuch (x32010@1)hard faces set in smoke
AmThe (x02210@1)smell lingers in my clothes
FIt's (133211@1)a bad night to be alone
FBut (133211@1)that's the way it goes

          CWell, (x32010@1)you got yourself a family
