Intro: F


   C              G
If anyone rises at 6.31
    Am
And fakes all day that
        F
They're having their fun
     C               G
They never did get it right
                  F
Since they got it so low


   C                  G
To anyone drinking the morning away
    Am             F
The afternoon will prove a mistake
     C                G
They never will get it right
                   F
Now they've got it so low


       C           G
And we laugh and we drink
       Am                     F
And we teach ourselves not to think
(and we find it hard not to think)
   C               G
We never did get it right
                F
Since we got it so low


   C
To all of the faces that
G
Freeze for you there
   Am                   F
In your memory when you try not to care
     C          G             F
They never disappear down the slow road


    C
For all of those people
   G
Who bleed by the side
    Am
And split from their tongues
    F
And sharpen their knives
     C               G
They never will get a life now
               F
They've got it so low



Chorus


C
Cornfields and pig-tails and
G
Fish in the stream
    Am
The night that the boys stole
  F
A billion dollar dream
         C
From the high jinx school
    G              F
For girls down the road


C
Stories are smoke trails
   G
And some may be true
       Am
You're listening to me
        F
But I'm talking to you
  C                       G
I hope you never fall from grace
              F
If you get it so low


Chorus (x2)
