Admiral Fallow - Old Balloons Chords

C
Throw them down your throat.
C
Many rivers to cross. 
C
Laugh under granite-grey skies, 
       G               F   C
As if it's their loss.


C                   C
Slip on your floor; bound aftermath.
C
That which has stolen your years. 
                  G                F
Son, don't become one more shadow.
                C
Don't drop your anchor here. 

C
Broken down liver and withered frame. 
C
Lungs wrinkled like old balloons. 
C
Dampen your spirits by sunrise
          G    
And swear at the moon. 

C                F                                     Em  
'Cause sometimes it's like trying to breathe through a pillow,
G                      F                        C  
Trying to dance on the tightrope in the pouring rain. 
C                    F                       Em
Sometimes it's like, like you're treading on egg-shells, 
G                       F                    C  
Trying to floss up your top-set with a rusty chain. 

F           G       C   
It's all because of you
F           G       C 
It's all because of you
F           G       C  
It's all because of you
F           G       C  
It's all because of you
F           G       C  
It's all because of you
F           G       C  
It's all because of you
