Gm
D7
I’ve been dragging razor blades
D# A# F
over my face for about ten years straight,
Gm D7 D#
from the week I turned thirteen.
A# F
Well, yesterday I turned twenty-three.
Gm D7
Dad used to joke that he could shave with a knife.
D# A# F
I’ve never seen a cut on his face in all of my life.
Gm D7
I hope my skin thickens
D# F
into the kind of man I want to be.
A# | D7 | Gm | D# F
A# D7
You’re numb? Yeah, sure, I’ve been numb.
Gm D# F
It’s when you have so many choices, you end up choosing none.
A# D7
And you're bored, I think I know the sort.
Gm D# F
As long as you don’t end up there as your first resort.
A# D7
One time a drunk news presenter from RTE,
Gm D# F
took the time out of her busy night to explain to me,
A# D7
that boredom is a pretty recent term
Gm D# F
and forty years ago, no one used the word
Gm D#
And there is so much more than this,
A# F Bbdim
some people survive by the skin of their wrist.
Gm D# A#
And I had to let you know.
F Bbdim A#
Oh o-oh, oh oh
A# | D7 | Gm | D# F
A# D7 Gm
I saw what was basically a child propped up on stage.
D# F
He proceeded to say nothing in the loudest way.
A# D7 Gm
I lock my jaw so tight, point my eyes at the ground,
D# F A#
in a futile effort to repel the sound.
D7
As my mind starts to wander away,
Gm D# F
it calls back just to ask me was I ever this way?
A# D7
The chords seem so familiar, although his speech is slurred.
Gm D# F
I notice we’ve the same shaving lines as he utters the words:
Gm D#
And there is so much more than this,
A# F Bbdim
some people survive by the skin of their wrist.
Gm D# A#
And I had to let you know.
F Bbdim A#
Oh o-oh, oh oh
A# D7 D# / A# Gm D# / A# D7 D# / Cm D#
A# D7
At six a.m., eight years ago,
Gm D#
I was lying in the middle of the Old Bawn Road,
A# D7
singing “I don’t care if any cars come,
Gm D#
I won’t rise before the sun.”
