can tear [Csus4]me away[C]
From the car [Am]cry ing babies
and [F]switchblade [Am]days
The [C]bark of the unem
[Csus4]ployment [C]hounds
And the thought [Am]of the thick,
white skull [F]on the [Am]ground
I won't [F]die in the bony

at the en[F]d of the [Am]road
I can [C]see you wrapped
in Egyp[Csus4]tian thre[C]ad

We could fi[Am]nally make [F]your father
[C]proud

Well I [C]found you now so
[Csus4]tear me away[C]

We burn [F]cash and carry a decadent flame
Way in[Am]to the night and bey[F]ond the
