Hotel Hobbies Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][D][Dm]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Hotel hobbies padding
dawns hollow corridors
Bell boys checking out the
hookers in the bar
Slug-like fingers fingers trace the star-spangled
clouds clouds of cocaine on the mirror

[Verse 2]
The short straw took its bow
[Dm]
The tell tale tocking of
the last cigarette
Marking time in the packet
as the whisky sweat
Lies like discarded armour
on an unmade bed
And a familiar craving is crawling

[Interlude 1]
in his head
[Dm][D][Dm]
[A][G]

[Verse 3]
And the [D]only sign of life is the
ticking of the pen
Introdu[Dm]cing characters
to memories like old friends
[A]Frantic as a cardiograph scratching
out the lines
[G]A fever of confession a catalogue
of crime in [D]happy hour

[Verse 4]
Do you cry [Dsus4]in happy [Dm]hour,
do you hide in [A]happy hour
The pilgrimage to [G]happy hour

[Interlude 2]
[G][Em][D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][C][D][C][D]
[Em]
[D][Em][D]

[Em][Bm][D][Asus4]
[A][C][D][C][D]
[Em]

[Verse 5]
New shadows [Bm]tugging at
the corner of [D]his eye
Jostling for at[A]tention[Asus4]
as the sun[C]light flares
Through a cur[D]tains tear,
shuff[C]ling its beams
As if in [D]nervous [Bm]anticipation of another day
