0:00 - 0:52
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
Mean Mr. Mustard says hes bored
E 5th/flat 5
of life in the District
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
Cant afford the French Quarter high
E 5th/flat 5
says it gets old real quick
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
and he pales up next to me
E 5th/flat 5
scrawled on the pavement
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
It says: son, time is all
5th/flat 5
the Luck you need.
0:53 - 1:18
Chorus
And if I stay Lucky then my tongue
G#minor
will stay tied, and I wont betray
the things that I hide.
Theres not enough years underneath
G#minor
this belt, for me to admit the way
that I felt.
1:19 - 2:12
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
Mean Mr. Mustard says dont be
E 5th/flat 5
the wave that crashes
G#minor 9 F#minor add4
From a sea of discontent, he says
E 5th/flat 5
hes wrestled with that blanket...
G#minor 9
It leaves you cold and wet
F#minor add4 E 5th/flat 5
any way you stretch it
G#minor 9 F#minor add
Divine apathy! Disease of my youth
5th/flat 5
watch that you dont catch it.
CHORUS repeated 2:13 - 2:36
2:37 - 3:03
F# E *on the E chords, let ring, &
And I'm the wave that crashes... strum the strings one by one
from the high , ,
>From a sea that turns itself
And inside out every chance I get to
See what it's like in Hell
CHORUS repeated 3:04 - end.
