[Verse 1]
Em G
So, if you don't believe that man was made from mud
Em G
I'm inclined to lean that way as well
Em G
And if you think that we should drink each other's blood
Em G
Slice me open, what the hell
[Verse 2]
Em G
I get the goosebumps just remembering your name
Em G
The shameless hope behind your eyes
Em G
Insisting sincerely that the snow begets the spring
Em G
Who needs wit when you are wise
[Chorus 1]
C Bm D
You can sleep in any bed you think is soft
C Bm D
I will save a place for you here at the trough
C Bm D
But if instead, you resolve to hook the hose to the exhaust
D
Admit you're beat... I will not think you weak
[Verse 3]
Em G
Our car was buried in the last dug ditch
Em G
Our broken family stood it's ground
Em G
We poured down kisses on his pale blue lips
Em G
Oaths were made and vengeance vowed
[Verse 4]
Em G
I try to think of it as often as i should
Em G
My hat in hand and furrowed brow
Em G
But once you realize that you'll never save the world
Em G
The next best bet is burn it down
[Chorus 2]
C Bm D
Stay away from whisky love, and stay away from men
C Bm D
You do those things and you may never get the chance
C Bm D
To drink pollution and to sit here on your hands
D
It ain't so bad, if you get happy when your sad
[Chorus 3]
C Bm D
Stay away from whisky and you stay away from mine
C Bm D
We're writing footnotes for a culture in decline
C
And I don't know, if that don't, then
Bm D D
Just what will change your mind and break that spell
N.C.
And we'll quietly rebel
N.C.
Come here, we'll quietly rebel
[Outro]
