God The Devil And Bruce Springsteen

C                  D
The hotel cleaning lady
   G                C
Is wearing your perfume
   C              D              G      C
It lingers in the hallway as she leaves
         C                      D
There is air between the pillows
      G                 C
And a silence fills the room
   C                 D           G          C
It sits on clouds of aerosol and potpourri
       C                   D
We are flying out to Darwin
       G                  C
In the middle of wet season
       C                               D
Always found the locals comforting and calming
       G                      C
Like a sweaty voice of reason


[Pre-Chorus]
          C                    D
Said that I was gonna miss you
     G                   C
In a way we both believed
        C                     D
Sat and listened to the future
          G                         C
Talked to God, the Devil, and Bruce Springsteen


[Chorus]
                  Em             D
I'm dumb as bricks, and twicе as slow
                         G                     C
But it’s the year of the rat, baby, didn't you know?
                  Em             D
I'm dumb as bricks, and twicе as slow
                         G                     C
But it’s the year of the rat, baby, didn't you know?

[Verse 2]
        C                      D
In this conglomerate of nothing
G                                  C
Filled with the nostalgia of a thousand American cities
     C                      D
This culmination of what's coming
           G                                   C
Set to the endless hum, the beating drum of dirty electricity
      C                  D
If we can't make it stop
             G                 C
Turn it into something we want
         C
Said you wouldn't be picking sides
       D
Got "I picked a side, ask me why"
G                            Em
Tattooed on the side of your goddamn face
C                     D
I got a mind to break, I wanna break my mind
             G                                    C
I'm breaking down after getting recognised in the JobSeeker line
              C                            D
I can smell a sparkler-bomb residue of the factory floor
        G                       C
I don't think like you, because I'm still poor


[Pre-Chorus]
C                                    D
I said that I was going to miss you
     G                     C
In a way that sounded fake
        C                           D
Kept my distance this whole winter
         G                 C
I didn’t want to raise the stakes


[Chorus]
                  Em             D
I'm dumb as bricks, and twicе as slow
                         G                     C
But it’s the year of the rat, baby, didn't you know?
                   Em            D
I'm dumb as bricks, and twicе as slow
                         G                     C
But it’s the year of the rat, baby, didn't you know?
