Song: Grow Up and Blow Away
Artist: Metric
standard tuning (EADGBe)
B
Floating the room
A
Two by two from the womb
E
To the holiday
D
There is no holiday
B A
First double-cross her heart
E
He wants to start a family
D
Needing something to go on
B9 C7
If she weren't writing in blood
C7/9 Abm
She'd bring him her jokes
A new liver
C7/9 C7
And a shovel for the mud
B9 C7
If he were not knee-deep in mud
C7/9 Abm
He'd bring her his drugs
C7/9
He'd get her a typewriter
B D E
If this is the life
G A
Why does it feel so good to die today?
B D
Blue to gray
E G D D7 D D7
Grow up and blow away...
B D E
If this is the life
G A
Why does it feel so good to die today?

Grow up and blow away...
B A
Nobody knows which street to take
E
He took the easy way
B
What was the easy way?
B A
First double-cross her heart
E
He wants to start a family
D
She always thought she would not.
