Intro: Am 


verse 1: 
Am 
  We talk a lot in crappy cars 
and restaurants and shitty bars 
         F 
We ain't trying very hard but 
      G 
we've got that fucking bark 
              Am 
We talked the talk, packed up 
the shit where the fuckers 
                 F 
would be feeling it If they 
                  G 
could hear the epithets and 
                        Am 
the rejoinders that we spit 
                        G 
We talk a lot We talk a lot 
                      F   G 
and now we're feeling fine 
          Am 
We talk a lot We talk a lot 
          G

out of this shitty yellow light 
               C   G    Am  F 
Cuz we've been trolling trolling 
F              G         Am        
  through this endless parade

changes it only rots away

C    G      Am 
  We talk a lot but 
no one's listening 
We've been over this 
  F 
before Now it's happening 
 G 
again Now we're squawking 
          Am 
with them crows We hang on 
wires and watch the city 
                    F 
and its busy days below 
We talk a lot, We talk a 
G 
lot it's the only thing we 
Am

              Am 
What have you got? 
What have you got?

I want to melt 
          F   G

         F 
out my insides
