Intro: G6 


Verse 1:  

 G6 
   I have a drop-leaf window, 
        Cmaj7 
   With cats and broken yards, 
   G6 
   Sunflowers and paint cans, 

   And stolen shopping carts, 
       Cmaj7 
   And nothing to be proud of, 
       G6 
   And nothing to regret, 
                               Cmaj7 
   All of that to make as yet, 
   G6 
   All of that to make as yet.

Verse 2: 

G6 
   I have a single heartbreak, 
     Cmaj7 
   I celebrate and mourn, 
     G6 
   A single shining sister, 

   And all the tricks of dawn, 
     Cmaj7 
   A single yellow duvet, 
     G6 
   A single switch to flick, 
                                      Cmaj7 
   But a thousand boxes yet to tick, 
     G6 
   A thousand boxes yet to tick.

Verse 3: 

 G6 
   And Jesus is a Rochdale girl, 
       Cmaj7 
   And forty-five CDs, 
         G6 
   Got a house that you can smoke in, 

   So all my friends found me, 
            Cmaj7 
   And they found me full of myself, 
       G6 
   And bloody-minded will, 
                              Cmaj7 
   And as yet a box to fill, 
   G6 
   And as yet a box to fill.  


Outro: G6  Cmaj7    G6 (2x)
