Intro
Ebm B Bb (repeat)
Verse (same chords):
Had a little bit to drink
There's a little thing I wanted to do out east
Nothing too emotional, my good miss
I couldn't be serious in a room full of jack-knife eyes
Stop talking 'bout the years -
you sound like Louis Burdett
Chorus
F# Ab B
And we roll on to my back shed
C# F#
Play some poker, scratch my head
F# Ab B
Look at the sky and spot the planes
C# F#
Where would I go on holidays?
Ab E
Roll with the punches down the aisles
B Bb Ebm B Bb
and down the streets the weeks roll by.
Verse 2
Ebm B Bb
I'm chewing ice and grinning
I'm spewing up and spinning
It's biliousness as usual in my corner of the kitchen.
Hey you, lose that friend before we go anywhere
What? Someone might see you alone?
Stop bagging out the band,
You sound like Louis Burdett
Chorus
F# Ab
All my friends are fuckups
B C#
but they're fun to have around
F# Ab
Banana chairs out on the concrete
B C#
Telling stories to the stars
F# Ab
How Geminis love wooden dragons, yeah
E B Bb Ebm B Bb
How down the street the weeks roll by.
Bridge
Ab B F# E B
The moment the night wears off the bombsite reappears
B A
They're all asleep but the morning tastes like wine
It tastes like wine in Tempe
D E F#
I feel so good I, just might, wake him up
Ebm B Bb
Pat him on the bald head - tell me about a dream, Louis
Something obscene, Louis
Your life's an open magazine, Louis.
Solo over same chords.
Ebm B Bb
I'm stoned in a bookshop, sober in a nightclub
S*x is everywhere but no-where around me
By the time she gets to Marrickville we'll be masturbating
Never rains in Tempe but the planes remind me of family money
And the lack down here
Stop talking, frustrated, 'cause I sound like Louis Burdett
Chorus
F# Ab B
And we roll on to my back shed
C# F#
Play some poker, scratch my head
F# Ab B
Look at the sky and spot the planes
C# F#
Where would I go on holidays?
Ab E
Roll with the punches down the aisles
B Bb Ebm B Bb
and down the streets the weeks roll by.
F# Ab
All my friends are fuckups
B C#
but they're fun to have around
F# Ab
Banana chairs out on the concrete
B C#
Telling stories to the stars
F# Ab
How Geminis love wooden dragons, yeah
E B Bb Ebm B Bb
How down the street the weeks roll by.
