Vampires Are Poseurs (song For The Living) Tab uke di Ramshackle Glory

G                       D
I don't believe in heaven, I do believe in hell
C                               D
It's down the street from here, And we both lived there for years
G                               D                                C
We burned the calendars for warmth, And the alarm clocks just for fun
                               D
We closed the blinds to make goddamn sure
                        C
That we could never see the sun
                        A#
You could set a watch by the bottle returns
        Em              C                       G       B
And the ashtrays overflowing on the floor
Em              G               C               D       D...
Nothing's free but time when you're so damn poor
G                               Em
But the past was death row, And the future's a battlefield 
C                               D
I hope we choose the right war 
G                                       Em
Because I've been fist fighting gravity, Since the day I learned how to breathe 
C                                       D
And I still wake up On the same cold floor i fell asleep on
G               D               C       C
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday 
G               D               C       C
I can't do it alone, but I shall be free someday 
G               D               Em                      C
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
G               D               Em              C

Trumpet x2: G Em Bm C

G                               D
We made our own postal system, To cross the continent
C                               D
As long as freight trains run And loners pick up dreamers with thumbs
                G
Who needs governments to get a letter to you 
                D
Or a mixtape to me, or a postcard to Johnstown? 
        C
What's a thousand miles between friends? 
        D
What's a friend that's not worth crossing a country? 
        G               D
But I owe money and broken hearts 
                        C
From Philly to Sydney and back to Vermont
        G
(yeeeah) I regret a million things 
                C               D       D...
And that's only what I haven't forgot
G                               Em
But the past was a mine field, And right now is a prison break
C                               D
I hope we make it alive
G                               Em
When who we are doesn't stop where the law begins 
C                               D
Then we'll storm their court houses to survive
G               D       C               C
So I won't, but we shall overcome someday
G               D       C               C
I can't do it alone, but we shall be free someday
G               D               Em                      C
I don't know how to live But I'm sick of learning how to die
G               D               Em              C
