Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Oh [G]yes[Gm][A][D]
[G]so [D]hear me roar,
I'm a dusty lion
They will heed the call for a quarter mile
[G]Whoa, tis the season,
[A]yea to roam, [D]for a mate
Oh an[G]d my doorbell's sure to ring,
if [Gm]I just sit an[C#dim]d wait[D]

[Verse 2]
Oh yea [D]well, they've come to play,
on these legs like iron
It'll give em more fun than their favorite prize,
[G]down at the fair
[Gm]Oh, what's i[C#dim]t worth [D]any
more?
You get the key[G]s to my city
[A]Whoa, an[C#dim]d direction[A]s to my [D]door

[Verse 3]
Oh but look on [G]the rooftops,
ya the cold [D]just keeps coming oh
Maybe I'll go fake it, [G]just a little bit more
[D]Ya well sur[Bm]ely the[G] weather doesn't
peep [D]through my sweater
[Bm]Or sting the eye[G]s of those who I adore
[D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
Yeah watch me
go down that old tar trail
Let the hair grow long on
my mane and tail
[G]Til you can't see [Gm]my e[Edim]ye
[A]s or m[D]y ears
And you don't [G]know whether
I've been missing for days
Or [Gm]I've been missin' [A]for days or I [D]been missin' for fuckin'
years I been missin' for fuckin' years
[Bm]Cuz under

[Verse 5]
[G]the moonlight the weak
[D]become weary
Somethin' a [Bm]lurkin' [G]might spot
them [D]and then
[Bm]Back to [G]their home they will [D]hastily scurry
Just [G]to find the [Gm]pranksters have let
[C]themsel[D]ves in
Sayin' knock knock [G]knock
Is [A]anybody [D]home
Sayin' knock knock
knock knock knock knock
[G]Is any[A]body home[D]
But out on [G]the

[Verse 6]
rooftops the cold
[D]just keeps coming
Maybe I'll fake it [G]a little bit [D]more
[Bm]Surely [G]the weather doesn't peep
[D]through my sweater
[Bm]Or sting the [G]eyes of those who I adore
[D]

[Verse 7]
Cuz the mightly old king
of the bridge I be
From my bed of rope everything I see
Times a changin'
[G]No [Gm]food [A]for the gull[D]s
[G]The beach house misses you sincerely
[Gm]It complains you[C#dim] never call[D]
But [Bm]sadly [G]the world

[Verse 8]
has
grown fat [D]on my shoulders
All we need is a [G]break from time [D]to time
[Bm]Surely [G]the weather doesn't get [D]much better
I hope [Bm]this ain't [G]the time of my [D]life
Yeah [Bm]surely [G]the weather
doesn't get [D]much better
I hope [G]this ain't the time [D]of my life
Yeah [Bm]surely [G]the weather doesn't
get [D]much better
I hope this [G]ain't the time of [D]my life
