You Already Knew by Nicholas St. James
You Already Knew
The G, F# and E are actually part of a riff,
walking down the low E snare from the G to the E
Like: |-3-3-2-2-0-| and back into Em
[Intro]
G G F# F# E
Em Am B Em
Em Am B Em
[Verse 1]
Em Am
The prison's almost empty, the church is nearly full
B Em
Yesterday's tomorrow and the spring is the fall
Am
Breakfast for supper, mortgage on a box
B Em
A hostage wanting ransom and your cards on the flop
Am
Bikes without wheels, a bear on a leash
B Em
St. Francis in hell, honeymoon on repeat
Am
Politicians in the draft, soup with a fork
B Em
Accidental glitterati, New York, New York
[Chorus]
B Em
How you live, it's only on you
B Em
Gold-toe stiletto or duct tape shoes
B Em
Tan in California or St. Louis blue
Am B
The choices are the same, but the directions are few
G G F# F# E Em
But that you already knew
[Instrumental]
Em Am B Em
Em Am B Em
[Verse 2]
Em Am
Families at the table, money in a jar
B Em
Christopher Columbus, new smell in a used car
Am
We've got liquor for our children, time-out for the press
B Em
A bed without a bounce, a cheap hotel without a mess
Am
Seven-minute muscles, an honest surprise
B Em
Vultures killing meals and it's noon at night
Am
We'll split the bill, you're good as your word
B Em
The prison's almost empty and the church is nearly full
[Chorus]
B Em
How you live, it's only on you
B Em
Gold-toe stiletto or duct tape shoes
B Em
Tan in California or St. Louis blue
Am B
The choices are the same, but the directions are few
G G F# F# E Em
But that you already knew
