Minus 5
Intro: Em Asus4 D7 G
C G
The hallway smells of lemon With my face pushed to the ground
C Em
The windows at their very best Are dripping to the sound
Chorus:
Am C G
You'll never win the way you won again (x2)
Am Am7 G
C G
Near the bed the bastard swings A plastic vodka jug
C Em
And I can see your penny loafers Drop onto the rug
Chorus:
Am C G
You'll never win the way you won again (x2)
Am Am7 G
Bridge:
G C
Wish it was a one-way mirror on the ceiling
G
And I was looking through from the attic
Instead of getting carpet burn when I'm turning
C G Em A7 D7 Em
Fighting sparks in the dark from the static
C G
Two legs of the coffee table Are scratched up by your cat
C Em
Well I may take him far away What would you think of that
Chorus:
Am C G
You'll never win the way you won again (x2)
Am Am7 G
C G
You, the bastard and vodka Me and the floor
C Em
Another perfect marriage Another perfect war
Chorus:
Am Am7 G (x2)
You'll never win the way you won again
Am C G (x2)
