Okkervil River - I Guess We Lost chords
Start Jamming...
Lists of swinging fists nobody [D] saw
That were [Bm] slicing through air right [E] before the stare [D] of a bar
[A] Make beds of busted heads, [D] pillowed and puffed
In [Bm] some quiet and cold [E] emergency ward [D] they left us
[E] So we always [F#m] demurred with an ill-advised word from [A] some enemy's ill [D]-equipped ton
[E] Sizzled and burned [D] at our backs so we learned [A] to dodge
Guess [E] we lost
[A] staring down the cliffs with [D] my crew cut
I [Bm] had turned 23 [E] and believed I was [D] dangerous
[A] Lists of swinging hips down [D] in the clouds
[Bm] They were holding their swerve [E] I am perfectly sure [D] for us
[E] And photographs as [F#m] what a photograph is
[A] Holy shit were our faces [D] so young
[E] All pissed and thin-lipped, [A] eyes were [D] tippled and tripped it was [A] fun
[E] Guess we're done
[A] Lies and flying flies, supping [D] our blood
We [Bm] fall down sliding down, slipping, [E] slamming the ground cause [D] we're fucked
So I [E] went down to the mystic, [F#m] all headached and heart sick
[A] Lying with the beggars [D] and bums, paid his [E] price and he slurred
[D] My advice is to turn and [A] run
Oh I [E] guess we're down
So
[A] [A]
[D]
[Bm] [E]
[D]
[A] let's just gather round and party goers, that's if you're [D] still living
And not [Bm] wasted, washed up, [E] watered down and not dead or [D] death wishing
[A] Those trumpets won't blow, the professional driver [D] got lost
And all the blizzard [Bm] priests from the highest [E] to the least have been lined up [D] and shot
How [E] I prayed I hoped to [F#m] release a moment [A] when all of it just [D] blew up
How [E] I wished and I schemed it [F#m] from whistler to scream
[A] How I wanted to just [D] hold your heart in [E] the palm of my hand
And [D] just watch as it [C#] slows and it [A]
stops
[E] Cold cuffs, the [Bm] star [D] crossed
We [A] got nothing
[E]
But I guess [Bm] we're lost
[D] I [A] guess we're done
