Genre: indie rock, folk rock, lo-fi
intro riff:
the intro and verse part where ben slides up the guitar are easy to play
its an E chord, and then slide it up so your pointer finger is on the sixth fret, and
other two are on the seventh.
Intro: E
E
Life will tower (??) a quarter scale, of precious oxygen we never inhale,
Am E
i cracked a bottle against the safety rail, give me time
E
and you were like a walking compliment, tall in stature and exceptionally well read,
Am E
adobe glasses and a cartigan, oh come on
Am C E
and oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
E
you said that all these things you've learned to ignore, hidden cameras on the casino floor
Am E
and what gets payed for behind hotel doors, oh come on
Am C E
and pretend every slot machine is a robot amputee waving hello
Am C E
people stare into their eyes and they feed them little prizes, in they go
Am Em Am
Am Em Dm D
G E
and entering the twilight, the basement where the sun had never spilt, you said that
were lonely, then we kissed like lonely people do
E
you said the city has a beating heart, that pushes people down the boulevard
and they're all hoping for a wishful fill, in the desert full of dollar bills
Am E
and foolishly you know they pay me still, oh come on
Am C
and oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
