[Intro:] (guitar kicks in just before the laughing part)
C5 , G5 , C5 , G5 ,
C5 , G5 , D5 , C5 (repeat 2x times)
[Verse:]
C5 G5 C5 G5
You live out where the street ends
C5 G5 D5 C5
in a basement apt. with one of your friends
C5 G5
and the tap drips all night
C5 G5
water torture in the sink
C5 G5
The furnace is burning
D5 C5 C5 G5
but it's still cold i think ___
C5 , G5 , C5 , G5 , D5 , C5
C5 G5
I can smell the bleach
C5 G5
that they use in the hall
C5 G5 D5 C5
but it can't clean the dirt off of me
C5 G5
It's seeping under the door
C5 G5
in across the floor
C5 G5
it's starting to hurt
[Chorus:]
( D5 ) ( C5 ) C5 G5 C5
Everytime I breatthe__ |
G5 C5 G5 D5 C5
Everytime I try to leave__ |
C5 G5 D5 C5
Everytime I breathe_____ |
[Verse:]
C5 G5
Now the toaster sticks
C5 G5
and the empties are piled
C5 G5 D5 C5
I haven't been up the stairs in awhile now
C5 G5
I gotta wash the sheets on my bed
C5 G5
gotta watch the things that go unsaid
C5 G5 D5 C5
God I wish we'd leave it at this____ |
[Repeat Chorus] (except the beginning D & C
chords wich are already
played at the end of verse)
[Verse]
D5
And every evening you open the door
C5
You come down
D5 C5
There's nothing like watching tv all night on the ground
D5 C5
and no one is watching me slide
D5
below street level
C (pump up this chord, get ready for the chorus)
barely alive
[Instrumental] (chords from the chorus)
[Last verse]
C5 G5 C5 G5
Now we live out where the street ends
C5 G5 C5 G5
in a basement apt. just like our friends
C5 G5
We always said that we were different
Cadd0 G5
but you know now that we weren't
C5 G5
'cause there's holes in all the bottles
D5 C5
and my lungs hurt___ |
[Repeat Chorus]
