New Song of the new album 'Angles'
Lyrics from Songmeanings
Intro
B B C#m C#m x2
B
Slip back out of whack at your best
D#m
It's a nightmare
C#m E
So I'm joining the army
B
Know how folks back out, I still call
D#m
Will you hate for me now?
C#m
We got the righteous advice to use it
Got everything but you can just choose it
E
I won't tie me a puppet on a string
B E F#
Don't go that way
B E F#
I'll wait for you
E
And I'm tired of all your friends
C#m
They're still at your door
E F#
And I won't, I better call you
B E B F#
So long my friend and adversary
But I will call you
Intro riff again
B B C#m C#m
B
Get dressed jump out of bed and do it best
D#m
Are you ok?
C#m
I've been out around this town
E
Everybody's been singing the same song ten years
B E F#
I'll wait for you
B E F#
Will you wait for me too?
E
And they sacrifice their lives
C#m
In our land are all closed eyes
E F#
I've been saying we're beaten down, I won't say it again
B E
So long, my girl
B F#
The sorry embrace
Solo
B E F#
Don't go that way
B E F#
I'll wait for you
E
I'm tired of all your friends
C#m
Knocking down your door
E F#
Get up in the morning, give it your all
B E B F#
So long my friend and adversary
I don't have the chords to the solo or the solo itself yet
