Em
B7
I’ve been dragging razor blades
C G D
over my face for about ten years straight,
Em B7 C
from the week I turned thirteen.
G D
Well, yesterday I turned twenty-three.
Em B7
Dad used to joke that he could shave with a knife.
C G D
I’ve never seen a cut on his face in all of my life.
Em B7
I hope my skin thickens
C D
into the kind of man I want to be.
G | B7 | Em | C D
G B7
You’re numb? Yeah, sure, I’ve been numb.
Em C D
It’s when you have so many choices, you end up choosing none.
G B7
And you're bored, I think I know the sort.
Em C D
As long as you don’t end up there as your first resort.
G B7
One time a drunk news presenter from RTE,
Em C D
took the time out of her busy night to explain to me,
G B7
that boredom is a pretty recent term
Em C D
and forty years ago, no one used the word
Em C
And there is so much more than this,
G D Bbdim
some people survive by the skin of their wrist.
Em C G
And I had to let you know.
D Bbdim G
Oh o-oh, oh oh
G | B7 | Em | C D
G B7 Em
I saw what was basically a child propped up on stage.
C D
He proceeded to say nothing in the loudest way.
G B7 Em
I lock my jaw so tight, point my eyes at the ground,
C D G
in a futile effort to repel the sound.
B7
As my mind starts to wander away,
Em C D
it calls back just to ask me was I ever this way?
G B7
The chords seem so familiar, although his speech is slurred.
Em C D
I notice we’ve the same shaving lines as he utters the words:
Em C
And there is so much more than this,
G D Bbdim
some people survive by the skin of their wrist.
Em C G
And I had to let you know.
D Bbdim G
Oh o-oh, oh oh
G B7 C / G Em C / G B7 C / Am C
G B7
At six a.m., eight years ago,
Em C
I was lying in the middle of the Old Bawn Road,
G B7
singing “I don’t care if any cars come,
Em C
I won’t rise before the sun.”
