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

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

B
So keep the blood in your head
G#m
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired

And keep your feet on the ground

Gave up my body and bed
