[Verse 1]
D
We saw the western coast
Bm
I saw the hospital
G A
Nursed the shoreline like a wound
D
Reports of lover's tryst
Bm
Were neither clear nor descript
G
We kept it safe and slow
A
The quiet things that no one ever knows
[Chorus]
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals

[Verse 2]
D
I contemplate the day we wed
Bm
Your friends are boring me to death
G A
Your veil is ruined in the rain
D
By then it's you I can do without
Bm
There's nothing new to talk about
G
And though our kids are blessed
A
Their parents let them shoulder all the blame
[Chorus]
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals

D Bm G A
I lie for, only you, and I lie well, hallelu (x2)
D Bm G A
I lie for, only you, and I lie well, hallelu (x2)
[Chorus]
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
D
So keep the blood in your head
Bm
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
G
Today's the day we dropped out
Gave up my body and bed
A
All for an empty hotel D
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
