Bottled In Birkenhead Chords

(ver. 1)
Sound Of Guns
Capo on 6th

[Intro]

G G7 G G7


[Verse 1]

G
It's ten past four in the morning
G7                               C
my minds like a dynamo just wont give in
Am
maybe the lights are to bright 
C                                               G     G7
maybe it's the amphetamine that I took last night

G
I haven't moved for an hour
G7                                          C
this attic is cold, smells strongly of turpentine
Am
but I don't mind 
C                                                          G    G7
cause I'm hoping the fumes might eventually send me to sleep


[Chorus]

Em
my eyes are bloodshot from three days and nights
C
of just staring through walls and refilling my cup to the top 
Em
with cheap whiskey which says on the label
C
distilled in Kentucky but bottled in Birkenhead
G
this kind of thing makes me smile to myself
C
everyday when the world spins around in my shell
G     Em         C
it's all in good time, all in bad health
G     Em         C                       G   G7
it's all in good time, all in bad health


[Verse 2]

G
just sit here drifting 
G7                              C
through the realms of the sick, be unwell
Am
I'm on tender hooks
C                                                              G     G7
and I'm looking quite pale but still got my dashing good looks

G
it's ten past four in the morning
G7                               C
my minds like a dynamo just wont give in
Am
maybe the lights are to bright 
C                                               G     G7
maybe it's the amphetamine that I took last night


[Chorus]

Em
my eyes are bloodshot from three days and nights
C
of just staring through walls and refilling my cup to the top 
Em
with cheap whiskey which says on the label
C
distilled in Kentucky but bottled in Birkenhead
G
this kind of thing makes me smile to myself
C
everyday when the worlds spins around in my shell
G     Em         C
it's all in good time, all in bad health
G     Em         C                       G   G7
it's all in good time, all in bad health
