Coming Up For Air Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Sucking out a bastard,
a ventilator's shaft
Chewing on surrender cause
it's cheap and it lasts
This ain't hell, it's a holding tank
Where memory and the
future draw a big fat blank
I know this tunnel leads somewhere
But it takes mystery and a torture,
reason to care
I know this tunnel leads outside
Down to the river where the
elephants start coming up
[D]Up, up, coming up for air[Am][F]
[Am][Em][C][Am][Bm][G][Am]
There is no better story
than a man in a hole
This is where we laid still,
this is how we roll
This is where we fend on the
marrow of his bones
This is where we shuffle
playing doomsday alone
A suicide miner with a depth charge timer
A black hole lover diggin'
deep for a cover
You suffocate first then you
learn how to breathe
The speed of the sewer shows
you the way to leave
Coming up
[D]Up, up, coming up for
[Am]air[Bm][G]
[Am]Coming [D]up
Up, up, coming up [Am]for [Bm]air[Am]
[F]Make room for the clean
up [Am]crew
[F]They're the last to be seen and
the first to be [Am]fooled
Coming up[G], coming u[D]p
Up, up, coming up for air
[Am][Bm][Am]
[D]
[Am]
[F]The top of that cliff along
the river[Am]side
[F]Looking for a place to watch
the elephants [Am]die
Coming up[G], coming u[D]p[Am][D]
Up, up, coming up for [Am]air[Bm][G]
[Am]Coming [D]up
I'm, I'm coming up [G]for [Am]air[Bm]
[G]Com[Am] ing up
Coming up
Coming up
Coming up
Coming up
Coming up, coming up,
coming [Am]up
Thank you.
