Intro: Dsus2, D, Dsus2, D (Repeat x2)

Verse 1:
D
Goodnight
Dsus2
It's stroke-time
                 D                          
Let's get paralysed down both sides
                     Dsus2
Snake hips, red city kiss
                          D
And your black eyes roll back
           Dsus2
Midnight organ fight
 
Yours gives into mine
  D
It's all right

Chorus: 
   D         A7sus4
And the fast blood
                 Dsus2 
Hurricanes through me
                                                           
And then it rips my roof away with her fire heads
                 D
This is the longest kiss
           F#5
Goodnight

Verse 2:
       Dsus2
And now I, I tremble,
         D
Because this fumble
                 Dsus2
Has become biblical
                    D
I feel like I just died twice
            Dsus2
Was reborn again
            D
For all our dirty sins

Chorus: 
D                           A7sus4
And the fast blood, fast blood, fast blood
               Dsus2
Hurricanes through me
                   D                 Dsus2
And then it rips my roof away with her fire heads
                  
This is the longest kiss
  D
Good night
F#5
Good night
  
And then I fall down

I stumble

And she said, good night

Fast Blood

Poke is a heartfelt confession of love gone bad, and the loneliness that get's churned up in that wake. Lyrics contain a dead mouse love offering, a cunt and a shit, all flawlessly delivered with a Scottish accent. 

D
Poke at my iris
Em
Why cant i cry about this
G                      D
Maybe there is something that you
A
Know that i dont...

D
I might never catch a mouse 
Em
and present it in my mouth
G                                      D
And make you feel you're with someone who 
A
deserves to be with you.

D
Why won't our love keel 
Em
over as it chokes on a bone?
G                        D
We can mourn its passing and then 
A
bury it in snow.

D
Or should we kick its cunt in and 
Em
watch as it dies from bleeding.
G                            D
If you don't want to be with me just
A
say and I will go.


CHORUS:
G Em/D x4


VERSE 2:
D
Well we can change our partners

Em
this is a progressive dance
    G                            D
But remember it was me who dragged you

A
 up to the sweaty floor.

(Repeats all throughout)
D
Well this has been a reel I've got 
Em
shin-splints and a stench from weed
G                            D
But like a drunken night it's the 
A
best bits that are coloured in

Should look through some old photos I adored you in every one of those.
If someone took a picture of us now they'd need to be told that we had ever clung on 
and maybe not with arms at night.
I'd say she was his sister but she doesn't have his nose.

And now we're unrelated and rid of all the shit we hated,
But I hate when I feel like this and I never hated you.

CHORUS:
G Em/Dx4

Verse 1 Chords: (use these chords for all verses)
                  C5
I'm working on my backwards walk
                F
walking with no shoes or socks
                            G
and the time rewinds to the end of may
                           F
I wish we'd never met then met today

Verse 2: 
I'm working on my faults and cracks, 
filling in the blanks and gaps
and when I write them out they don't make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest

Verse 3
I'm working on drawing a straight line
and i'll draw until i get one right
it's bold and dark girl, can't you see
I done drawn a line between you and me

Verse 4
I'm working on erasing you
just don't have the proper tools
I get hammered, forget that you exist
there's no way I'm forgetting this

Verse 5:
I'm working hard on walking out
shoes keep sticking to the ground
my clothes won't let me close the door
these trousers seem to love your floor

Verse 6: (last verse)
                     C5
I been working on my backwards walk
                         F
there's nowhere else for me to go
                        G
except back to you just one last time
                  F
say yes before I change my mind, say yes before I...

Outro: (repeat 2x)
G
   you're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
                                          
you're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
F5

you're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it, youre...

My Backwards Walk

Intro: G (over and over again)

Verse 1: (G chord played over and over in this verse)
G5
My hole, I'll get my hole, I'll get my hole
Get my hole, get my hole and I'll find out more.
It's a choo-choo train, a rocket launch
If we have a hormone race
i'm bound to finish first.

Pre-Chorus:
        G         C
Can you see in the dark?
                G           C
Can you see the look on your face?
                    G                    C
The flashing white light's been turned off,
                G             C
You don't know who's in your bed.

Chorus
         G            C                         G             C  
It takes more than fucking someone you don't know to keep warm.
      G                              C
Do you really think that for a house-beat 
                  G        C
You'll find your love in a hole? 
         G                     C                     D
Oh, you won't find love in a, won't find love in a hole.
         G                   C                       D
It takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself warm.

Verse 2:
     G                              G
I'm drunk, I'm drunk and you're probably on pills
                       G                              G
If we've both got the same diseases it's irrelevant girl
         D               C         D            C
And the room fills with steam, oh, evaporates disappears
   D            C            D               C  
My point of entry is the same way that I leave

Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy

                 C	             Am		
I guess there's so much more I have to learn
               F	 	                       G		
But if you're here with me, I know which way to turn
        Am         F		                   C
You always give me somewhere, somewhere I can run
Am	            G	       F   C
   You make it real for me 

Chorus:
    G	    Am	   F	             C
And IIIIIIIII'm running to you baby
G    Am	              F	           C
  Youuuuuuuuu are the only one who saved me
       G     Am	         F	               C
That's    whyyyyyyy I've been missing you lately
      Am	         G	       F   C
Cause you make it real for me 
Am	         G	       F   C
You make it real for me

You Make It Real

G         Em		  
1) Almost heaven,   West Virginia,
2) All my mem'ries, gather round her, 

   D			 C                G
1) Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah       River.
2) miner's lady,         stranger to blue water.

                      Em  
1) Life is old there, older than the trees, 
2) Dark and dusty,    painted on the sky, 

   D
1) younger than the mountains
2) misty taste of moonshine

   C			G
1) growin' like a breeze.
2) teardrop in my eye.

              G              D            Em        C
       Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong.
	      G               D              C            G
     West Virginia, Mountain momma, take me home Country roads


           Em       D            G 
 	I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
            C        G              D 
        the radio reminds her of my home far away
            Em               D            C
        and driving down the road I get a feeling 
 	       G                     D          D7    G
        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us
