Skydive Home Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Em

Em C Slide Riff G

Forget about green bottles

 you can lend me some money if you wDant

Emand all of those fast-paced drCinking friends of yours

 are alGl sitting around trying to remember the good times D

they’ve forgotten

cigarette smoke like a weather front

ashtrays and guitars - misunderstood

and I feel like playing pool below the tree line

let's get out a map pretend that we could

G to D Riff X2

reckless - afternoons with chainsaw fiddle players

watch your step buddy that's my sister you're talking to and riding the late night

subway cattle cars crashing on the kitchen table with people eating breakfast around you

and drawn the last straw to the sunrise gunfight

working class neighbors waking up to you and coughing up the wrong tree hey ya it'll be

alright and if you ever get up before ten

there ain't nothing you can do

Chorus

Gbut skydive homeD

Gand leave all of the answers to Dyour intelligent friends G

 and you're always one step baDck from

Cbeing oneD step over the edge and G

G to D Riff X2

now it's way too late to be out and the band sucks

they're rocking but I'm tired of “twist and shout”

the winds in the trees and the smokes on the water and knocking over all of those chairs

ain't no way to impress her

and crooked teeth darling with dirty finger nails

outlaws and gunslingers boozed from all those bar rails

and let's turn out the lights son

give me another slow song

crashing on the corner while the cops telling you to move along

Chorus x2

Outro solo over G and D Riff
