Everyone's Dying (grandma's Drunk Again) Uke tab by Roe Kapera

(pluck g then cea for the whole song)

A#m       F
Grandma’s drunk again
B                 F#
passed out in her soup.
A#m          F
The rats are singing
           B             F#
“there’s asbestos in the roof”.
A#m F
Mr. Perkins in the
B                   F#
front yard with his gun,
A#m          F
the kids are crying
      B                F#
as he points it at the sun.

[Chorus]
A#m     G#               F           F#
I smell pollen where the grass still lives,
A#m             G#        F             F#
standing on the mezzanine choking on my spit.
A#m     G#              F         F#
I still wonder why they live like this,
   A#m        G#         F
it seems like everyone’s dying.

A#m   F   B   F#  (x2)

[Verse 2]

A#m            F
She killed her husband ‘cause he
B                F#
loved her like a whore.
A#m          F
They say the flowers grew
    B                  F#
the day she dumped the corpse.
A#m           F
She drowns herself inside her
B           F#
Tylenol and pills.
A#m          F
She says she could’ve been
   B            F#
an actress in a film

[Chorus]

    A#m     G#               F           F#
But I smell pollen where the grass still lives,
A#m             G#        F#            F#
standing on the mezzanine choking on my spit.
A#m     G#              F         F#
I still wonder why they live like this,
   A#m        G#         F
It seems like everyone’s dying.

A#m   F   B   F# (x4)

[Bridge]
C#   G#      F  F#
This town is dying.
C#  G#       F F#
Why are they like this?
C#  G#       F F#
God keeps on lying.
C#      G#     F    F#
They’ll try to hide it.
C#                          G#
They’re setting fire to the churches tonight,
F                        F#
the shadows dance on the wall,
C#              G#               F
waiting for the answers to their calls.

A#m   F   B   F (x4)
