Standard (EADGBE)
maybe some day we'll meet again
when our two roads hit the same dead end
and o-oh i'm counting the days
you've got something that i've never since seen
a willing heart and a part that's clean
we're both good at counting days
Riff 1
with an ounce of intuition and your parents' ammunition
you come here hungry wearing naked ambition
hysterical to meet you
can you get me in?
i got three years tied to the mast of this town
she's a handsome ship but i'm going down
and o-oh she ain't coming with me
there's a time to fight and a time to get out
but you'll fight till we're all knocked out
and oh i keep counting teeth
everyone's an artist with a pristine vision
a cellular intelligencer with a fire in her kitchen
too many chefs on dope. and the rich don't listen
Riff 2
(Note: Throughout the chorus the number of times and endings of riff 2 change, you'll be
to figure it out)
i am the rabbit wrapped in panic actor
(Riff 2)
bag in a tree you will outlast the cast and me i gotta get some release!
it's up or out and the ladders on fire
she greased her frock with a smile that moves the sky
surviving the insult day to day
they give you the insult to make it go away
and o-oh what can i say?
i got a wine swept smile and a well-timed mile
i've been running since i heart they'd sooner see us die
than o-oh come and die next to us
up to her knees in men keep hitting
white suits fuck like bad television
latest simple angel come die next to me
i am a shifting shape a wire walker
coked with the hopes of happy happy ever after
(Riff 2)
i came to trial out of style
but i got my eye on a country mile
where the people you know are the ones you like
--The ending is just variations of riff 2 that I didn't feel like tabbing--
