Sweat And Bones

         E
It's the heat of the summer,
      C
keeps dragging you back in,
E                               C
  the rest of us have all found homes.
E                                C
  It's the same streets that are causing you to sin,
E                            C
  the rest of us have up and gone.
E                    C
  And you're sulking around
E                   C
  the same familiar town,
E                                     C
  the sweat and the bones that you're cracking,
              E
begging you to stay,
                  C
you know it's not that way.

So let's start a band,
               E
I'll bring the time,

you bring the hands.
G                 G/F               E
  I'll meet you tomorrow in another state.
           G           G/F
But you're tied to the ground
         E
and your teeth make this sound
G            G/F           E
of I'm sorry but I have to stay.


                   E
Doesn't make you a liar,
               C
just makes you wrong.
                      E
It doesn't make you a liar,
                  C
it just makes you wrong.
           E                        C
And you're choking on the same damn song,
            E
yeah you're choking on
              C
the same damn song.


G       G/F              E
I can't believe that the same set of keys
G         G/F          E
  doesn't bring you to your knees.
G          G/F           E
Me at your back with the knife,

begging please,
G                  G/F
 you don't have to stay here,
             E
I beg you to leave.
