The Jezabels - Mace Spray

INTRO 

Dm F C G

VERSE
F                       G
There's a place in the town, a statue, 
She'd make me wait beneath, 
But its magnificent archways, archways, 
That's where I'd go to weep. 

PRECHORUS
Am                      G
I'm right up onto the counter; Showgirl,
Dm          Am         G
Perfect the slow body-roll. 
Am                                        G
And breakaway from the anger, oh, hoe, 
Dm            Am         G
Just got to let it all go, 

CHORUS
        F                  G
But she loves me 
Am     C      F                           G
More than anyone who wouldn't lay a hand. 
Am   C       F        G   Am
She keeps mace spray,
  C             F                G Am C
For you can't rely on the common man. 

VERSE
F                       G
That night up under the starlight, 
Holly, you call, 'the great blistering blue,'
A strange formation came down from the ceiling, 
And it began to move. 

Am                     G
And so the shattering shards of glass fell, 
Dm            Am             G
And glistened this way and that,
But she would say I won't find my way through the plaster; 
I'm an empty hourglass in the sand, 

CHORUS 
               F    G  Am C
But she loves me, 
More than anyone who wouldn't speak like that. 
She keeps mace spray, 
For you can't rely on the common man.

                F                 G   Am    C
But it is alright, 
Here in the time and the place I am, 
You leave a light on all night, 
Just to remind of the place I am.

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

CHORUS
           F     G  Am  C
But she loves me, 
Here in the time and the place I am.
She keeps mace spray, 
For you can't rely on the common man.
