VERSE 1
C E7
Been watching so much TV
F
I'm thinner than I should be
I'm like a waterlogged ball
Ab
That no-one wants to kick around anymore
C E7
An all day morning hair-do
F
That no comb can get through
It's all granola and beer
Fm
A calling card and a silk cut souvenir
CHORUS
C E7 F
I miss you like sleep
C E D7
And there's nothing romantic about the hours I keep
C E7 F
The morning when it starts
Fm
I don't look so sharp
Now I got a heavy heart
VERSE 2
C E7
I talk a lot about football
F
And girls I kissed in Grade 4
I piss off my friends
Ab
And digging a hole just staring at the floor
C E7
Every T'shirt's got a wine stain
F
I'm loving cigarettes again
Fm
I know every tune about guys and girls
And hurts and hearts and moans
CHORUS
C E7 F
I miss you like sleep
C E D7
And there's nothing romantic about the hours I keep
C E7 F
The morning when it starts
Fm
I don't look so good
C
Now I got a heavy heart
BRIDGE

It's just a low rent paying

Palpitating

Pulp inside my shirt

But there's a weight that's sitting

So hard God it hurts
