F                   G             A#    C       F
  Tonight the drunks are infected, we're on our way
                 G           A# C    F
 As if they drop by to see me uninvited
 A#       C            Fh           C             A#
    And I am a wallflower, maybe a better father
           C
 This is a job
 
 
 F              G
  For seconds I miss the Bentleys
   A#   C             F
 Today maybe they'll call,
              G                A#    C            F
 You describe every prison you pass through them all 
 
 
 A#        C                  F          Aadd9
   Then he asked you for your head and I vowed to burn your bed
 Dm            G                   A#
  Try to pretend, but this is your life,
      C
 somehow, it feels right
 
 
 
 
 
E|-----------------------|
 bridge: (see an alternative way to play this bit at the end) 
 
 
 F                            C
  I'm calling this evolution, I'm falling for institution
 Dm             C            A#
  Warm submission enveloping you
 
D|-0-2-3--2-0-----|
A|------------3-1-| (violin fill)
E|----------------|
 
 
 (repeat chords)
 Tomorrow I'll survive the questions
 Knives buried with cold indifference
 My world is true rendered by you
 
 (violin fill x2)

 
        
  Aadd9          A#            C               F
 Here they come again, I could never find the words
       C                A#
 So I disguised them in verse
          C                  Fh
 Until it comes out dumb and wrong,
               C   A#            C
 The simplest song, if you sing along
 
 
 
 
E|-----------------------|----
 *bridge: alternative playing method 
 
 the way i originally learnt that bridge section:
 
    *  *               #
 G|-10-10-7-7-77-5-55-555-3~-|
 D|-10-10-7-7-77-5-55-535-3~-|
A|--8--7-5-5-55-3-33-333-1~-| -then play the violin fill
E|--------------------------|
 
 *played 16 times
 #note the little change here
 

 

 
 The Joey Cape version of the song on the Tony Sly split has an extra section to 
it:
 
 F                  A#
 (Marry me Kristen, marry me Kristen
 G         C
 I want to be the only one)
 
 (use the "bridge" chords for this)
 I'm painting a revolution
 I'm falling for institution
 Warm colors enveloping blue

D|-0-2-3--2-0-----|
A|------------3-1-|
E|----------------|
 
 ("bridge" chords again)
 Shot of comfort in a warm convention
 Medicinal injection
 36 years ended by you 

                        *
D|-0-2-3-2-0---5-3-2-0-3--|
A|-----------3------------|
E|------------------------|

 *as this 3 is played, the F chord for the next section is played, so you can play 
them simultaneously

 F                   G
  Tonight the drunks are infected
 A#    C      F
 We're on our way



 key:
 /  =  slide up
 \  =  slide down
