Intro
Dm (h/o G and C stings on 2nd fret)
[Verse 1]
Dm Gm Dm
It is five in the morning and the wind outside is pouring with my shelter
Dm
Let's take all their serparate ways
Gm Dm
How the long desperate days of summer swelter
Dm
And at five the day is shaping up
Gm Dm
My lover lays their naked butt for sleep
Dm
When she wakes she'll say I done her wrong
Gm Dm
We haven't fucked or sung a song in weeks
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
But there are reasons why I left you
Gm Dm
There are reasons why the sun begins to set
F A# F A
And I will add them to the ever, ever, ever growing list of my regrets
[Chorus]
Dm Gm
I am older by the window, I am drunk all by myself
Dm Gm
I am fearful of the morning just unbuckling my belt
Dm Gm
My youth is disappearing it was gone when it began
Dm
I am the happy argue humble hero
A# Dm
King of happenstance
[Verse 2]
Dm
I remember how the night is dressed
Gm Dm
And played with every righteous breath I fake
Dm Gm
But if it finds a place to hide I'll throw my hand grenades inside and wait
Dm
Oh I wait here with the rotten eggs
Gm Dm
Those broken brandy bottles drinks for time
Dm Gm Dm
They come in with their grains of salt and put their famous flame to fall to mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
But there are reasons why I left you
Gm Dm
There are reasons why the sun begins to set
F A# F A
And I will add them to the ever, ever, ever growing list of my regrets
[Chorus]
Dm Gm
I am older by the window, I am drunk all by myself
Dm Gm
I am fearful of the morning just unbuckling my belt
Dm Gm
My youth is disappearing it was gone when it began
Dm
I am the happy argue humble hero
A# Dm
King of happenstance
