[Intro]
C E x4

[Verse 1]
G
There is no rush when you don't belong
C
Turns out we don't all
Am E
Fight like dogs in the end
C
Most of us want to roll out
C
Roll under the grass
E
You are limbless, cartoon
E
No bridge in your song
C
Spirulina won't cure my heartbreak
C
I was a dreamer when I learned to take
E
In between her and the fireplace
C
There are factors that conditioned me Something in the canopy
E
Clearly

[Verse 2]
C
And the blank ones
C
Cartwheel out of the furnace
E
The mould never cracked you see
E
The girls in St Denis
C
Still sleep on their backs
C
Understood a fact
E
When you spoke in all your marvelous ideologies
Am
The world is always at ease, at ease, at ease
E
Don't you see

[Verse 3]
C
And the deaths on the highways
C
From drinking at casinos
E
Feel so natural
E
Every day a dice roll
E
Every way you gamble
C
Where is something I can handle?
Am
And the world void of Petrov, our savior
Am
We are taught to savour
C
Everyone else's failures
E
Endlessly

[Verse 4]
C
Even the greatest
C
The very very greatest, gave up, tapped out
E
Told all you fuckers to lie down
E
Yet still you found
C
Cathedrals of dissent
C
Where does the robber go
E
Where does the robber go to repent?
C
Tell me

[Instrumental]
E C E

[Verse 5]
G Am
Till there you were
C
You wouldn't buy a round
Am
For your best friend
E
See, it's trickled down
Am
On you I don't depend
C
There you go then bye
Am
Another end, bye
Am
Infinitum bye
E Am C
There you go then, bye
Am E
With such a heavy sound

[Verse 6]
C
There is no rush when you don't belong
Am C
Turns out we don't all fight like dogs in the end
Am
Most of us want to roll out
Am
Roll under the grass
E
You're limbless, cartoon
E
No bridge in your song
Am
Make me wonder, again
E
Or make me learn, to pretend
Am
Make me wonder, again
E
Or make me learn,
C
To pretend
Am
Make me wonder
C
Again
E
Or make me learn, to pretend

[End]
C E x6
