Absynthe Makes The Heart Grow Fonder

Tom : C
C
After a couple glasses,
G Am G
The floorboards don't feel so secure.
C G F G
And I'm afraid I could really go down tonight.
C
I'm out-numbered by the ashes,
G Am G
Held hostage by the door.
C G F G
And the air in here is so damn loud tonight.

[Chorus]
F G
But I've got this old four-by-six photograph,
C Am
Your face pressed up against my shoulder,
F G C G
Little pools of salt mark where tears have dried.

[Próxima Parte]
F G
And I've got this big needle stuck in my chest,
C
So deep it's starting to tickle.
F G Am
I'm a thousand miles from the chimera I chase.
F G C G
Love is a sadness with a face.

[Verse]
C
There's a darkness in all wanting,
G Am G
My intentions all feel stained,
C G F G
And the Devil keeps filling my glass tonight.
C
My adrenaline is clotting,
G Am G
And the faces in here all seem strange.
C G F G
But I just want to touch something that'll last tonight.

[Chorus]
F G
If I could just taste one sip of an answer,
C Am
Maybe I could break out of this drunkard's prison.
F G C G
I'm homesick for a place I might have never seen.
F G
Something more than these old feet brought me here,
C
So these feet can't take me away.
F G Am
No I didn't get here on my own,
F G C G
Whoever brought me here's gonna have to bring me home.

[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
F G
Something more than these old feet brought me here,
C
So these feet can't take me away.
F G Am
I'm a thousand miles from the chimera I chase.
F G C G F G C
Home is a sadness, not a place.
