Electric President - Monsters - Sleep Well (2008)
Transcribed by M.Brown
F# Bbm
In through your window the sky will fall. You�ll trap the
F# Bbm
stars in jars and line them along your walls. And as the
F# Bbm
moonlight fills the veins beneath your skin, you�ll hear us
F# Bbm
knocking, oh, but you won�t let us in.
D#m
Cause you�ve got no friends,
D
And you�ve got no heartbeat.
D#m
Your insides are rotten now.
D
So there�s nothing to fix.
F# B
But you said it often, before you were lost, that it�s only a
D#m D
day. That it�s only a day. But now you�re a
F# B
monster, and your backbone is soft. Because you threw it
D#m D
away. Because you threw it away.
F# Bbm
You called me out; I shrugged you off. I don�t have the
F#
time to watch you bash in all their skulls. Cause there�s a new
F#
boss in town, his heart is black, but his
Bbm
hands can reach through anything. Stick your
F# Bbm
head in the ground. You might just dodge the guns.
D#m
But I�m not your friend.
D
And I will not fix you.
D#m
My insides are hollow now.
D
So you�re all on your own. But I said it
F# B
often, before we were lost. That it�s only a
D#m D
day. That it�s only a day. But now I�m a
F# B
monster, and my blood all runs cold. Because I threw it
D#m D
away. Because I threw it away.
(same chords)
But now we�ve forgotten. And we�ve sold our blue skies.
But there�s nothing to say. We�ll be gone in a day.
And yeah, you can�t take it with you. But I can sure as hell try.
Now there�s nothing to say. I�ll be gone in a day.
(chorus chords till fade)
