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