More tabs, feeling musical at the moment:
i don't have time to stand here with you fighting about the size of my
dick
Capo 1
[a]I don't have time to stand here with you
Fighting about the size of my dick
I've got a [d]meeting to get to
And a [e]gun to pick up [a]first
[a]And I don't have time to stand in the rain
Fighting about all the same things again
If I [d]don't leave now
Then I'll be [e]too late to ever come [a]back
And in [d]24 hours I've lived a [e]hundred lives
I've shot [d]one man dead and watched [e]another two die
And it's [d]touch and go if I should [e]run or hide
And it's [d]touch and go if I can [e]live through the [a]night
Well I've got the money and I've got the truck
But it's too close to call whether I've got the luck
But I'm [d]too far in to even [e]dream of getting back [a]out
[a]And I wish all the fighting
Had taken less time
I could have been in and out
We could have laughed through the night
But sometimes [d]days can be seconds
And [e]seconds can be your whole [a]life
And in [d]24 hours I've lived a [e]hundred lives
I've shot [d]one man dead and watched [e]another two die
And [d]it's my turn now and I'm [e]not surprised
I [d]never thought that I would [e]live through the [a]night
[a]It's not the bullet that causes the pain
It's the hole that it leaves when it comes out again
And the [d]blood in the sunshine
[e]Disappears just like the [a]rain
And I'm dying for breathing
I'm blind in one eye
But here's what I choose
To take me into the night
You [d]beautiful and drunk and singing [e]softly to [a]yourself
You [d]beautiful and drunk and singing [e]softly to [a]yourself
Welcome To Växjö
In the darkness,
Of this morning,
There are things,
You'll never know,
But you were [d]mine once,
For a [bm]night once,
And I still [e]love you,
More than you [a]know,
[g]Outside there is [d]snow,
[g]And what other people [d]think,
[g]But inside this [d]room there is only you and [a]me,
And the star upon your [d]teeth,
Shining [bm]brightly,
As I [e]hold you,
To my [a]heart,
Though I'm [d]leaving when the [bm]light comes,
I still [e]love you,
More than you'll [a]know,
[g]And maybe the [d]snow,
[g]Will keep the memory for [d]us,
[g]And no matter what comes [d]next there is only you and [a]me,
And the star upon your [d]teeth.[a,d,a,g,d,a]
And I [d]know how this [a]feels,
And I [d]know what this [a]means,
I'd trade the [g]horrors of the [d]night time,
For a [a]lifetime in your [d]arms,
I'd trade the [g]horrors of the [d]night time,
For a [a]lifetime in your [d]arms.
