Intro:     G6

Verse 1:

G6 (320000@1)  I have a drop-leaf window,
        Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  With cats and broken yards,
   G6 (320000@1)  Sunflowers and paint cans,

And stolen shopping carts,
       Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  And nothing to be proud of,
       G6 (320000@1)  And nothing to regret,
                               Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  All of that to make as yet,
   G6 (320000@1)  All of that to make as yet.

(G6)
   I have a single heartbreak,
     Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  I celebrate and mourn,
     G6 (320000@1)  A single shining sister,

And all the tricks of dawn,
     Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  A single yellow duvet,
     G6 (320000@1)  A single switch to flick,
                                      Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  But a thousand boxes yet to tick,
     G6 (320000@1)  A thousand boxes yet to tick.

(G6)
   And Jesus is a Rochdale girl,
       Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  And forty-five CDs,
         G6 (320000@1)  Got a house that you can smoke in,

So all my friends found me,
            Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  And they found me full of myself,
       G6 (320000@1)  And bloody-minded will,
                              Cmaj7 (x32000@1)  And as yet a box to fill,
   G6 (320000@1)  And as yet a box to fill.
