G
It's ten past four in the morning
G7 C
My minds like a dynamo just wont give in
Am
Maybe the lights are to bright
C G G7
Maybe it's the amphetamine that i took last night
G
I haven't moved for an hour
G7 C
This attic is cold, smells strongly of turpentine
Am
But i don't mind
C G G7
Cause i'm hoping the fumes might eventually send me to sleep
Em
My eyes are bloodshot from three days and nights
C
Of just staring through walls and refilling my cup to the top
Em
With cheap whiskey which says on the label
C
Distilled in kentucky but bottled in birkenhead

This kind of thing makes me smile to myself

Everyday when the world spins around in my shell

It's all in good time, all in bad health

It's all in good time, all in bad health
