Staring At The Stars

Tom: E

C                        Em
Tobacco stains our yellow teeth
                            C
And all our fingers and underneath
                        Em
Our fingernails that clasp on sheets
                          C
And we try desperately to sleep
                           Em
Hearts are sad and eyes are tired
                              C
And all this red bull keeps us wired

It gives us wings
    Em
It gives us rings around our eyes

F                            C
We put three sugars in our tea
                       G
Sit to watch day time t.v
                        Am
And laugh at mums who don't know who the father is
F                               C
And all our girlfriends are long gone
                           G
We watch too much internet porn
                    Am
Who needs love when you've got silicone and strap ons


C Em C Em

C                            Em
And beer bloats our spoilt guts
                        C
And shit jobs keep us in ruts
                        Em
And keep us eyeing up the what's and if's and buts and maybe's and
C               Em
Falling over in the street
                       C
Is just a part of every week
                         Em
And we lie drunkenly just staring at the stars

F                            C
Remember when they were in reach
                            G
And all the teachers used to teach
                          Am
You can do anything if you put your mind to it
F                          C
We put our minds to it all
                              G
But disappointment crashed the ball

We could've done anything
         Am
We just never quite knew it so

F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am              F
Its to be a cold night

Repete
       F           C             G
Oh oh so tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am
Its to be a cold night
F            C            G
  Tie your scarf on tight
       Am              F
Its to be a cold night
