Verse

I played video games in a drunken haze

I was seventeen years young

Hurt my knuckles punching the machines

the taste of scotch rich on my tongue

A C♯m Bsus4 A

And then Cathy showed up and we hung out

trading swigs from a bottle all bitter and clean

locking eyes holding hands

twin high maintenance machines

F♯mI could feel the alcohol inside of me Ahum

F♯mPictured the look on my stepfather's fAace

Dready for the bad things to Ecome.

I down shifted as I pulled into the driveway

the motor screaming out stuck in second gear

The scene ends badly as you might imagine

in a cavalcade of anger and fear

There will be feasting and dancing in Jerusalem next year
