G
[Verse 1]
G Bm C AmSeventeen, working overtime the acting part of a slow decline
Em CI was caught in a trance like a viper advancin'
DTotally over it, down on the corner
G Bm C AmI had wrote my name on a picket sign I've had my knife since '99
Em CAnd I've been driving at night with my head in the lights
DAnd I'm already gone by the time I got back
[Verse 2]
G Bm C AmTo the other side of the big dumb world I found my place my style unfurled
Em Clike a carrier pigeon, the only religion
DGot me cutting it back to the part on my heart
G Bm C AmWhere the roses roam and the crew is game, a photograph of an empty frame
Em CI was caught in a moment with a worthy opponent
D GAnd I'm thumbing my nose at the rose on a thorn of authority
Bm C Am Em C D Ah yeah
[Verse 3]
G Bm C AmOver and over and over again I'll know it's time by the time it ends
Em CI was shot in the shadow but I'm bleeding for real
DWhen somebody loves you they water the wheel
G Bm C AmShe saved my ass at the break of dawn, my files in pieces, my money's gone
Em CI was under persuasion, a syndicated occasion
Don the opening night of the fight for the likes
[Verse 4]
G Bm C AmOf the allegorical rainbow bright believe you me it's an oversight
Em CI've been roaming with omens in a paper canoe
DAnd I can tell it's a lie by the size of your shoes
G Bm C AmYeah it's only a moment every time the gloves Go up but the stars align
Em CYou can marry a mission under scary conditions
D Gbut I'm blowing my horn on the side of the thorn of authority
Bm C Am Em C D Ah yeah
[Outro]
D GI'm blowing my horn on the side of the thorn of authority
Bm C Am Em C D Ah yeah
G Ah yeah
