Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
[C]I'm the
mosquito on [Am]your [C]wall
And the doubt in your [Am]mind[C]
The seventeen [Am]missed [C]calls
And the key you can[Am]'t find[F]
[Am]Desperation [F]does as [Am]desperation
feels
[C][Am][C][F]

[Verse 2]
[C]I'm the [Am]alarm that doesn't [C]sound
I'm the [Am]cork in your [C]wine
Your snapped [Am]heel on the [C]town and
old trans[Am]actions de[F]clined
[Am]You were the one [F]song that I [Am]could
not per[C]form[Am][C][Am]
[E]You used to be my [F]shelter from
the storm
[C][Am]

[Verse 3]
[C]
And [F]it's cold now on the West Coast
And [Am]it's lonely by the sea
[C]And the unemployment's rising
And [G]the pinchings never leave
And you [F]said we were forever
As you held [Am]me to your chest
But I was not [C]your piece of clay, [G]dear
I was your lump of [C]lead[Am]
[C][F][C][Am][C][F]

[Verse 4]
[C]I'm the speed [F]camera in the [C]tree
And the [F]fine you can't [C]pay
The spinning [F]beach ball on your screen
[C]And the crap excus[F]e
when you're [Am]late[F]
You were the [Am]only [F]book to ever
put me [Em]in a [C]trance[Am][C]
[F]Yeah you[E] used to be my[F]
amber [C]spyglass
[Am]

[Verse 5]
[C]And[Am] it's[F] cold
now on the West Coast
And it's [Am]lonely by the sea
And [C]the unemployment's rising
But we're still [G]somewhat upbeat
And you said [F]we were forever
As [Am]you held me to your chest
But I was not [C]your piece of clay, [G]dear

[Interlude 1]
I was your lump of lead
[F][C][Am][C][G]
[C][D][E][F][C][Am][C]
[G][C][D][E]

[Verse 6]
[F]No slow- dancing in [C]the dark
[Am]No lifeless kiss[C]es in my car
[G]No awkward chats to fam[D]ily
No tired grey personalities
[F]No same two albums on [Am]repeat
Endlessly rolling in [G]the deep
Spending each Friday [D]night at home
I have more fun when I'm
[F]alone[Am][C][G][C][D]
I have more fun when I'm [F]alone
[Am][C][G][C][D]

[Verse 7]
And it's cold [F]now on
the West Coast
Yeah, it's lonely [Am]by the sea
[C]And the unemployment's rising
And we're still [D]off to Tenerife
Because we know [F]we're not forever
We'll do [Am]no more than try our best
We'll never be [C]their piece of clay,
[G]dear
We'll be their lump of lead,
[C]lea[Am]d[C][F]

[Outro 1]
[C][Am][C][F][C][Am][C][F]
[C][Am][C][F][C]
