Danny Michel & The Camp Town Racers - Sweet Things chords
Start Jamming...
[E]
Counting out quarters at the record shop London calling and the pressure drop
Skipping double dutch with your sister's friends The landlord's calling for the rent again
If [F#] all I have is all I [A] need, all I need is all I [E] have
Why is all I ever [B] want is more?
[E] Why [F#m] can't I see the sweet things until they're all [A] gone?
[B] [F#] Why can't I see the sweet things until [A] they're all gone?
[E]
Sitting on the grass at your mother's grave
Staring at the letters that spell my name
Stars still shine in the sky blue sky
Sky blue, sky blue
Just gotta love with better eyes
Sky blue, sky blue
[F#m] I lay face down in the summer dirt
[A] My ear pressed into the conducting earth
[Em] I hear radio waves and ghosts that [B] fizzle and fade
[E] [C#] Why can't I see [B] the sweet [F#m] things [A]
[E] [C#]
[F#m] until [A] they're all gone?
[E] [A] [E]
It's ten years [B] later now
You said I wondered about [G#m] your age
I said I got [A] ID'd today
[G#m]
You said yeah, I [F#] get that too
[B] It's like little [G#m] never die, just grow younger every [Bm] day
[E]
Shoebox clothes, birthday cards
I got an old tube amp and no guitar
Yeah, we're living in a salvation on each shoe
All I got is me and you
Why can't [B] I see the sweet [F#] things until they're [A] all gone?
[E] Why can't [B] I see the sweet [F#] things until they're [A] all gone?
[E] Why can't [B] I see the sweet [F#] things until they're all [A] gone?
[E]
I can't [B] feel your skin, [F#] it's up to the air, [Am] oh
