Theo Katzman - Desperate Times

[Intro]
F Gb Bm F Bm C
 
[Verse 1]
F Gb Bm FYou took a selfie with your dog this morning, you said
Bm C FWhile you were sleeping in, smoking a spliff in your bed
Gb Bm FI never felt so much, from so little so quick
Bm C FIt seems too good to be true, which means it probably is
Gb Bm FYou live in San Antone, I'm in Los Angeles
Bm C FThat ain't exactly close, now that you mention it
Gb Bm FI saved some sick days up, for a solo road trip
Bm CAnd Texas is on my list
 
 
[Chorus]
C B F CCause when the big get weird, the weird get high
C B F CIt's when you dance with death that you know you're alive
C B F CI've got some good mezcal and the will to survive
Cm B F Gb Bm7Yes, these are desperate measures, but these are desperate times
 
F Bm C
 
[Verse 3]
F Gb Bm FI bought a camper van off of a teenage kid
Bm C FHail Mary to the gods, California Craigslist
Gb Bm FCashed out my bank account, gave away all my shit
Bm7 C FJust to shake things up, just to scratch that itch
Gb Bm7 FI probably should not say, just how down I am
Bm7 C FTo meet you in the bathroom of a gas station
Gb Bm7 FA thousand miles away from anywhere I've ever been
Bm7 CJust to feel like a human again
 
 
[Chorus]
C B F CCause when the big get weird, the weird get high
C B F CIt's when you dance with death that you know you're alive
C B F CI've got some good mezcal and the will to survive
Cm B CmYes, these are desperate measures, but these are desperate times
 
 
[Bridge]
Gb Fbmaj7How many glasses of wine, over a six-inch screen
Fb/B Fb/F F Bm Fm CmBefore my will resigns, and my judgment recedes?
F FmAcross these divided states, into a stranger's arms
B7 B CHail Mary keep me, keep me, keep me from harm
 
 
[Final Chorus]
C B F CIt's when you dance with death that you know you're alive
C B F CI've got some good mezcal and the will to survive
Cm CYes, these are desperate measures
Cm CYes, these are desperate measures
Cm BI'm taking desperate measures
F Gb Bm F Bm CBut these are desperate times
