Hometown chords by Cleopatrick

Verse:
Dm  A#
  Short cut to a quick buck is working all the time

Renting out your mind

And saving every dime
               G
Because when ten of those combine
       A#
They cross a sacred line
      G
And go from pocket change
   A#    C
To a gold mine

Dm         A#
She said she'd be down to hangout

With her parents out of town she was hoping I'm around
             G
For a party at her vacant place
 A#          G

        G         A#
That's when she text my phone and ask me where
 G       A#

  G
She broke my spine
  A#
And in that pain
        G                   A#
I realized that every dime I'd ever saved wasn't worth anything

What's the fun in getting drunk if you can't take it too far
    Dm                   Am
Yeah my friends are saying I've been wasting all my weekends contemplating
    G
If it's me or the booze that really gets wasted
G
I don't even taste it
G
When I'm throwing back shots as if its a race then
G
Quickly chase them

Chorus:
  Dm    Am    G

D      A#
Girl it's a simple matter
Dm        C      A#
Put your painted finger on my tongue
     C
So I can taste the lacquer
Dm       C         G
And relive each door that you have touched

G
And then she split my lips

 And for three whole days
 G
I tried to speak but everyone agreed
       A#
They couldn't hear a word I'd say
