tuning: standard, no capo

This is a great song from Barry's latest record 28th & Stonewall. Hope you enjoy the 
chords, I guess they're correct so far.

Intro:

F G C F
C G F C        (Play these chords by plucking the E or A string,
               followed by the two or three thinner strings, anyway
               listen to the song to get this right, it's pretty easy.)

Verse:

      C                          Am
This morning I woke up fucking hating
                 F                           C
this whole damn town and the sight of your house
C                            Am
Rigged up with insulin all flowing
                  G
I left without a sound

      F                         G                 C        G        Am
Just like I said I expect no apologies I've had a grip on our longevity
            F               G                    F                   C
But I'm losing count as you add up doubts and challenge all that's said


     C                             Am
I walked and walked and finally found it
                F               C
When comfort's strong interest wears
               C               Am
No I ain't snapped no I ain't broken
                     G
I just don't think I care

   F                             G                              C
I drew no response when asked if I come second best so I won't waste my time
        G          Am
on thoughts of loneliness
       F                 G                   F             C
It'll be alright there's more to life than counting every end


Chorus:

              F
Oh my god I tried
    G
I tried
   C
I tried
G       F
Oh I tried
        C              G               F       C
But leaving now ain't got a thing to do with pride

Bridge:

                   G               F                  C             G
You know you can't pretend when feelings end unless truth becomes denial
G                             F                 C                         x2
It's senseless to stay for convenience sake and time

Chorus:

              F
Oh my god I tried
         G
How I tried
      C
How I tried
G       F
Oh I tried
         C             G              F        C
But leaving now ain't got a thing to do with pride
