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