– no capo –
intro :

smeared black ink
C F Am
your face is ashen and i’m barely listening
C F Am
to last demands

Am Am
what’s buried underneath
Am F G7 G7
where i Am
Am F G7 G7
where i Am
C F Am Am
i’ll wear my badge
C F Am
a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
C F Am
that tells your new friends
C F
i Am a visitor here
Am
i Am not permanent
C F Am
and the only thing
C F Am
keeping me dry is
