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