Black Country New Road


Tom: Bb

F7

[Verse 1]

F7         Bb
You've got great hips
          F
I've been shaking ever since
                Eb
You told me "No love would live in this house"
               F
Turned out the inside inside out
           Bb
I tried my best to stay afloat
        F
After I sacrificed the goat
                   Eb
In your name, in the same room where we fucked as kids
                  F
With Abraham and Isaac and all of my greatest hits

[Chorus]

Bb               F                        Gm
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest
Bb               F                        Gm
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest

[Verse 2]
            Bb
Dancing to Jerskin, I got down on my knees
                   F
I told you I loved you in front of black midi
                 Eb
I told my friend Jack that "it could've been you!"
              F
I know it was funny, but I was struggling too
          Bb
I left my drink on the eighteenth floor
                 F
I thought about jumping and your face when you saw
                Eb
I thought of my father and proving him wrong
           F
But mostly Mollie and Dylan and my mum


[Chorus]

Bb               F                        Gm
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest
Bb               F                        Gm
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest
Bb               F                        Gm
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest
Bb               F                        Gm        Eb  Bb7
And I guess, in some way I've always been the guest
