G : 300033
Dsus4/F#: 200233
Em7:  022033
Cadd9: 032033

G (320003@1)                     Dsus4/F#
I'll start my life out on the sea 
Em7                 Cadd9Away (x32030@1)from waving families 
        G (320003@1)           Dsus4/F#
Found washed in walking on the beach
        Em7           Cadd9In (x32030@1)the fishing town in june

G (320003@1)              Dsus4/F#
I'll have all my words for company
  Em7                Cadd9A (x32030@1)few shards of new currency 
   G (320003@1)               Dsus4/F#
A lamp to show the evening in
     Em7             Cadd9And (x32030@1)wake me when it leaves

Em7              Dsus4/F#
But here I am, still on these sands

G (320003@1)                         Dsus4/F#
Well if these tall buildings part from me 
           Em7           Cadd9 (x32030@1)Then I'll swim myself to sovereignty
       G (320003@1)            Dsus4/F#
No people creeping, marching streets
       Em7           Cadd9Will (x32030@1)keep me from my seas

G (320003@1)                        Dsus4/F#
Well if all my things are packed and neat
Em7                   Cadd9Quick (x32030@1)stiff joint to help me sleep 
G (320003@1)                    Dsus4/F#
Then I'll wade out till it's too deep
   Em7         Cadd9And (x32030@1)row myself away

Em7               Dsus4/F#       Em7                                     
By here I am, still on these sands, with you.

Dsus4/F#    Cadd9
Here's to your piss city 
        Dsus4/F#   Cadd9 (x32030@1)Em7
Cause I save this modern law

Dsus4/F#    Cadd9
Here's to your piss city 
        Dsus4/F#   Cadd9 (x32030@1)Em7
Cause I save this modern law

G, Dsus4/F#, Em7, Cadd9 x2

Dsus4/F#    Cadd9
Here's to your piss city 
        Dsus4/F#   Cadd9 (x32030@1)Em7
Cause I save this modern law

Dsus4/F#    Cadd9
Here's to your piss city 
        Dsus4/F#   Cadd9 (x32030@1)Em7
Cause I save this modern law

G (320003@1)                  Dsus4/F#
It seems weeks since you have talked to me
         Em7           Cadd9Whilst (x32030@1)I build my new economy 
    G (320003@1)        Dsus4/F#
Of practicing excuses of 
       Em7           Cadd9Why (x32030@1)it is I have to leave

G (320003@1)                Dsus4/F#
I said if these tall buildings part from me 
      Em7             Cadd9 (x32030@1)But I guess that only works for me
       G (320003@1)                Dsus4/F#
Of working out why these streets 
       Em7         Cadd9Have (x32030@1)never been my home

Dsus4/F#               GAnd (320003@1)yes I know, I will row alone
