Biography:
Dear Landlord are a punk rock band from Carbondale, Illinois. Bordering on super-group status with members of Illinois power-pop masterminds the Copyrights- Adam (bass/vocals) and Brett (guitar/vocals), and Minneapolis Weasel-worshippers Rivethead- Brad (drums/lyrics) and Zack (guitar/vocals) they carry the torch high, burning brightest when they step to the mic together for anthemic choruses cut by snotty leads and broken wrists flying at breakneck speeds.

[Intro]
B
[Verse 1]
B G# E
Left me all but dead there
B
Headed out back east
B G#
Woke up on the porch where
E F#
The night before we drank ourselves to sleep
B G# E
Stuck between a drunken daydream
B
And real eviction threats
B G#
I thought that you might love me
B F#
Fuck the landlord, fuck the rent
[Chorus]
B D#
Alright, high fives for low lives
G# E
Drinking lonely heartsick drinks tonight
B D#
Some days, some nights just slip by
G# E
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
[Bridge]
G#
Show me the sunny side of regret
E
Tell me the one about sure thing bets
B F#
Paid in full without the consequences
G#
I know why you have to believe in lies
E
I know tonight when I close my eyes
B
When the room spins, when the brain stops
F#
There's a chance I can let this go for now
[Verse 2]
B F#
Try to keep four walls from doing their worst
E
I know damn well that this is not the first
Or the last of drinking with the lights out
B F#
Wondering where you went
B F#
Should've known it'd be more of the same shit luck
E
Got enough losing hands to keep myself fucked
'Till it rains down dollars in the ghetto
B F#
I'll hold my breath 'till then, yeah
[Chorus]
B D#
Alright, high fives for low lives
G# E
Drinking lonely heartsick drinks tonight
B D#
Some days, some nights just slip by
G# E
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
[Outro]
B D# G# E
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
(These nights just slip by)
B D# G# E
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
(These nights just slip by)
B D# G# E
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
(These nights just slip by)
B D# G#
Sometimes I'm wishing that this world would die
