[Verse 1]
Bm Em
We fight til we fall, us chairkickers all
Bm F#
we cling to these coils and curl in a ball
Bm Em
the harbor is teeming with commerce and crime
Bm
I own only what owns me
F# Bm F# Bm
this place ain’t my home but i’m calling it mine
[Chorus]
Bm
there are cracks in the minds
Em
of our own humankind
D F#
that are leaking out poison and hope
Bm
which we choose to imbibe
Em
is our own to decide
D F#
be it internal life
Bm
or the ghost
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Bm
blazes cane lady lively
Em
a trail through tiny downtown
Bm
cane baton twirling wildly
F#
mows the mundane all down
Bm
will the admiral answer
Em
when will and I call?
Bm
place your bets on the limits
F#
of a beast’s appetite
Bm F# Bm
and the loser buys all
[Chorus]
