Cold Beer and Cigarettes David Bazan
The Devil Is Beating His Wife
By David Bazan
Capo on 2
[A]A white ghost,
making his way up the west coast
Trying to focus his high hopes o[G]n a vagina or two[F#m]
[G]He's taking his chances[D]
Meanwhile, back in his living room
Bright smiles are watching his toddler run speed trials
Over a grandmother's rug
And nature advances
[F]Up [Dm]the intersta[G]te
[E7]He's been awake[Am]
And [F]pretty drunk f[G]or three whole [Em]days[F]
[F]No one wa[Dm]nts to stop[G]
U[E7]ntil they get to[Am] where they[Em]'re going[F]
I'll get[Am] to where I[Em]'m going pre[F]tty soon[E] [E7]
So he ta[A]kes another drink[Em]
'C[Em]ause watching the scenery bleed[D]
I[Dm]nto each similar scene[A]
Isn?t as[F#m] sweet as it [E] [E7]
had been in his dream[F] [Dm] [G] [E] [E7] [Am] [F] [G] [Em] [Em] [F] [Dm] [G] [E] [E7]
It'[A]s faster to buy cigarettes and some cold beer
If you don't rattle the cashier[G]
By asking her back to your room[Bm]
She's calli[E]ng secu[E7]rity[E]
Our[D] car's on fire in [Db5]the parking lot[D]
And nobody wants it to rain[A]
But God isn't listening
So all of the windshields glisten[D]
[D]The water and oi[Db5]l mix[D]
Causing the fire to spread[A]
To five or six innocent automobiles[E]
Waiting in their nearby spots[D]
What a cruel God we've got[A]
Right on[F#m], right on, [C#m]right on[D] [A]
Righ[Bm]t on, rig[E]ht [E7]on[E]
Right on, right on, right on
Right on, right on
So [A]he takes another drink[Em]
'Cause watching the scenery bleed[D]
I[Dm]nto each similar scene[A]
Isn't as swe[F#m]et as[E] it had[E7] been in his d[F]rea[Dm]ms[A]
Tabbed by Ezra Giovanetto
Sorry, for some reason I made some of the A's D's on the last version...
