Swinging Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D]
[Em][D][A][D]
Thinking [A]of swinging

[Verse 1]
from [Am]a thread
Coiled [D]tightly around [Bm]my n[D]eck
Will an [A]ex [Em]posed [G]pipe [Bm]hold
the weight of [A]fears[D]
[Asus4]Thinking of jump[A]ing from [Am]this [A]spot
Well [D]it's 52 stories 'til I hit [Bm]the mark
Will [D]the [C]concrete [Am]waiting [Bm]absorb
the strain of [D]the years[A][D]
Bright light[Am]s are flashing,
they hold me to my spot
I've [D]got 2 seconds to [Bm]get away
[D]or 52 until I drop
Well [Bm]the whole thing i[G]s swinging i[Bm]t's a [D]vicious and
[A]ugly curve[Asus4][A]
[D][G][D]
[A][Asus4]
Electro[A]cution where I lay
The taps are run[D]ning and the radio plays
Will the water [G]rolling ab[D]sorb the strain
of [A]the shock[Asus4]
[A]Shake that carcass,
well that used to be your life
Before it [D]consummates its love
with an exposed pipe
Will [G]the water rolling ab[D]solve you from all the things
that [A]you're not[Asus4][A]
[D][G][D]
[A][Asus4]
[A]If you really want to do it, do it slow
[D]Real pain is the only way to go
You've got to savour
[G]the flavour
Self-destruction's [D]a a most
attainable [A]game[Asus4]
[A]Pick yourself up,
develop an addiction
[D]Alcohol's a good one combined with sports,
hunting, and fishing
[G]Whole thing is vicious it's
[D]a most peculiar [A]game[Asus4]
[A]Shake that carcass,
while it's hesitating
Before it [D]consummates its love
with the concrete waiting
[G]Don't fool yourself into
[D]a quick and foolish en[A]d
If you're happy with your life
Roll [D]over kiss your children
and then your wife
And say
Jesus [G]Christ I'm [C]glad I never
have thoughts like that
