Intro
Em Am(finger down on 3rd fret of B string for that one part on both)
Verse:
Iâm sick of the cynical. Iâm sick of the fashion show.
The vapid and overblown someone someone tells me I ought to know.
Bridge:
I wouldnât stay around if the money let me linger on until the end of
December. And waste another year like a minute, trying to forget, cause I
remember my home.
Verse:
I left there with bitter words. Iâll go back with cap in hand, and launder the bed I
hurtful things said, and pick up where I began.
Bridge:
The penny lost its shine. Dirty ankles on the promenade in rubber flip-flop sandals.
me back the rags, the neurotic and the sweet lament, âcause I canât handle it.
Iâm gonna take a lover. Gonna take her back to Somerville. Show her around
the neighborhood, re-case the place and settle down. Gonna take a lover.
Gonna take her back to Somerville. Donât care if sheâs pretty as we leave
Suck City.
2x and back to bridge 1 then back to chorus 2x
