Verse
E
We never tired
C#m B E
Stood and fought the EF-10 chains and meadows
C#m B
We cut a sector and the district punched us out
E
Confuse the choir
C#m B E
Bought a shotgun which we trained on Tuscaloosa
C#m B
And opened fire 'cause we were born into a cult
[Chorus]
Amaj7 B C#m Amaj7
Let the trembling palm of my hand
B C#m Amaj7 B C#m
And the backhanded compliments land on your tan lines
Amaj7 B Amaj7
Oh, your tan lines flow out
B C#m Amaj7
Like petroleum caught in our glands
B C#m Amaj7
All our teeth falling out, oh my God
B C#m
Your tan lines
Amaj7 B C#m
Oh, your tan lines
[Post-Chorus]
E C#m B
E C#m B
[Verse]
E
I was feeling worse
C#m B E
Declaring amnesty, keeping heads together
C#m B
Asylum seekers in a laundromat at night
E
We're holding court
C#m B E
Kept a catchment on display against the weather
C#m B
C# subtle ploy to keep the deal intact at the US rate
[Chorus]
Amaj7 B C#m Amaj7
Let the trembling palm of my hand
B C#m Amaj7 B C#m
And the backhanded compliments stand on your landmines
Amaj7 B Amaj7
Oh, your landmines glow out
B C#m Amaj7
Like petroleum caught in our glands
B C#m Amaj7
All our teeth falling out, oh my God
B C#m
Your tan lines
Amaj7 B
Oh, your tan lines
[Post-Chorus]
E C#m B
E C#m B
[Outro]
E
Oh, your tan lines glow
