Electric President - Monsters - Sleep Well (2008)
Transcribed by M.Brown
F# Bbm
In through your window the sky will fall. Youll 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, youll hear us
F# Bbm
knocking, oh, but you wont let us in.
D#m
Cause youve got no friends,
D
And youve got no heartbeat.
D#m
Your insides are rotten now.
D
So theres nothing to fix.
F# B
But you said it often, before you were lost, that its only a
D#m D
day. That its only a day. But now youre 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 dont have the
F#
time to watch you bash in all their skulls. Cause theres 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 Im not your friend.
D
And I will not fix you.
D#m
My insides are hollow now.
D
So youre all on your own. But I said it
F# B
often, before we were lost. That its only a
D#m D
day. That its only a day. But now Im 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 weve forgotten. And weve sold our blue skies.
But theres nothing to say. Well be gone in a day.
And yeah, you cant take it with you. But I can sure as hell try.
Now theres nothing to say. Ill be gone in a day.
(chorus chords till fade)
