Dirty Sponge Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

DmTroubles, I know troublesG, troubles are what I knoDmw best

DmNot the kind that make you a rebel, just theG kind that make you dDmepressed

DmConfidential conversation spoken without hesitatioGn half a decibel above Dmsilently

DmViolently or quietly I invite them in sighinglyG, everyone confides Dmin me

Chorus

Like aF dirty spoCnge soaking uGp the misery of the world

I guessC someone's got to wipe their filFthy mouth

An ugFly spongCe, heavy, fullDm of dirt and ugly words

DmAnd it's about Ato wring mDme out

Verse 2

I used to have bigger ears and more years to see the tears

And to hear the fears of my fellow man

Now it is the opposite, I think those folks are full of shit

And I find it hard to give a good goddamn

Verse 3

Wring me out and get me clean in a metaphorical washing machine

Kerosene, bleach, and alcohol

I'm constipated with this hatred and if I was God I would have made it

Impossible to speak or hear at all
