Leave the Engine Room Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Bm]Baby gets born, rolls on his back,
Opens his eyes and [G]hears a voice
A-saying [F]oh

[Verse 2]
oh I'll tell you [F]a secret
[C]about your[Dm]self,
[F]I'll tell you a sec[Dm]ret about yoursel[G]f

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Your father was bad,
his father was bad,
His father was bad need I
go any further [G]on?[F]
You not gonna [G]try to involve your[Gm]self,
[F]Your pliable hea[G]d is a walk
[Dm]ing [Bb]hope[F]

[Verse 4]
[F]'Cause even now,
there's a [C]bone [F]sna[Bb]pping,
[F]Doughy embryo,
bloody [C]hand[F] s cl[C]apping,[Dm]
[F]The blood is clapping

[Verse 5]
If [Gm]all the b[F]oys say you [Dm]did it,
And [Gm]all the [F]girls say you did it,
And if [Gm]all the b[F]oys say you [Dm]did it,
And [Gm]all the [F]girls say you did it

[Verse 6]
Then [C]man, you're as [Bb]guilty as
the [Ab]ones the came be[C]fore,
You sleepwalked over here,
[Bb]the [Ab]drawbridge creaks ignore[G]d.
So leave the engine [F]room and [G]go,
Leave the en[F]gine room
and build [G]a road,
Leave the engine [F]room,
the steam will peter out and I'm
[C]Tired of the cen[Bb]turies passing,
the [Ab]vacuum and [Am]the womb
And I respect [C]that things have
[Fm]changed and I'm [G]alone
And I [F]remember snatches [G]here,
And I [F]involve myself with
utter [G]madness
Leave [Bb]me loun[F]

[Verse 7]
ging,
with [C]my nerves butchered,
[Bb]An d[F] the ceiling
[C]torched, in the birth [Bb]canal
[F]Cos even now, the[C]re's a bomb dro[F]pping,
[C]It's ever dropping

[Verse 8]
'Cause [Gm]all t[F]he boys say I [Dm]did it,
[Gm]And all [F]the girls say I did it,
And mother [Gm]all the
[F]boys say I did [Dm]it,
And [Gm]all [F]the girls say I did it

[Verse 9]
And [C]man, I'm [Bb]as guilty as
the [Ab]ones that came before.
