Verse:
D
Had a scratch only you could itch

Dmaj7
Underneath the Glebe Point Bridge

F#m
And now every boy in a knitted vest

FmMaj7b5
Just got some precedent

D
So we took a personality pill

Dmaj7
And something red to swill

F#m
And now every fire has gone out

FmMaj7b5
In every heart that wanted to kill

A (quickly A Asus4)
Let's call it a day

Verse 2:
Every thought that once had a sound
We'll have to hide 'til no one is around
'cause there ain't no room in the city today
For affirmations that you just can't say

You found out what shame can mean
In purple sneakers and grey jeans
And every walk to a school that once made sense
Sure felt like an accident
Let's call it a day

VERSE RIFF 1

Chorus:
D             A
For every trouble you found
Bm                Em
There's a drink to lose it and drown

CHORUS RIFF:

But do you need somebody, to feel somebody?


Verse:
Every day that once had a sound
We'll have to hide 'til no one is in town
I don't hate I just feel better
When no one else is around

So we'll take a personality pill
And something red to swill
And now every fire has gone out
In every heart that wanted to kill
Let's call it a day


Chorus:
For every trouble you found
There's a drink to lose it and drown
Do you need somebody, to feel somebody?

You can shave on a million ways
To makin? sure that the twelve in you stays
But do you need somebody, to feel somebody?
