Intro: E A C#m A B 


verse 1 

E 
  Stale as a 2 day 
          E/G# 
half full beer 
Cigarette boats 
                C#m 
float around in here 
              A 
A field in my gut 
        B 
lacking sunshine 
E 
  Put down like a teenagers 
      E/G# 
first drink I cough 
                 C#m 
up compliments I think 
                     A 
You're better off walking 
           B 
away while you still can 


 
E         B 
  She was passing 
A                  E 
through to climb a hill 
        B 
As you slipped and 
 A              C#m 
slid on my gut spill 
My better half was 
A           B 
praying for you to fall 



verse 2
 
E 
  Rotten like a 3 week half 
     E/G# 
full glass of breast milk 
               C#m 
drunken off my ass 

I would give anything 
    A  
to erase the past nine 
B 
years of my life 
E 
  Put down like a 
              E/G# 
prostitute in court 
                     C#m 
All liberty soon to abort 
              A 
like my sanity like 
B 
thoughts of you 


E         B 
  She was passing 
A                  E 
through to climb a hill 
        B 
As you slipped and 
 A              C#m 
slid on my gut spill 
My better half was 
A           B 
praying for you to fall 
E 
  praying for  
B/Eb   C#m 
you to fall 
       B 
So pitiful 
E 
  praying for  
B/Eb   C#m 
you to fall 
            B   A 
I'm fucking pitiful
