Cant Kick Up The Roots Chords

(ver. 1)
Neck Deep
[Intro]

G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Em7 D Cadd9


[Verse 1]

G                                  Cadd9
   The golden groves are lined with affluence and roses,
        G                                   Cadd9
But the bagheads down by Central Station are closer to where home is.
G                            Cadd9
   It can be grim and send you West from time to time,
             G
Yeah, this place is such a shipwreck,
            Em7       D     Cadd9
But this shipwreck, it is mine.


[Hook]

Em7     D             Cadd9        G
Day by day we grew to love this place,
            Em7          D        Cadd9     G
And where I make my grave, my anchor lays.


[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9
I've been wasting away,
          G                                      Cadd9
But in a town with no way out, there's not much else to do anyway,
           G                       Cadd9
If you're looking for a place to decay, 
                  G                    Em7  D      Cadd9
Then there will always be a place in my town called revelry.


[Verse 2]

G
I've seen a punch or two,
Cadd9
Narrowly escaped a few,
       Em7              D               Cadd9       G          
And if you can get the day off, I could show you a view.
G
I remember the football games,
Cadd9
The first time that I got laid,
        Em7                D             Cadd9     G
And the time J broke his finger drinking by the lake.


[Hook]

Em7     D             Cadd9        G
Day by day we grew to love this place,
            Em7          D        Cadd9     G
And where I make my grave, my anchor lays.
     Em7          D          Cadd9               G
The sound of my youth echoes out through these empty streets,
D7
I guess I can't kick up the roots;
Cadd9
it's home and that's the truth.


[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9
I've been wasting away,
          G                                      Cadd9
But in a town with no way out, there's not much else to do anyway,
           G                       Cadd9
If you're looking for a place to decay, 
                  G                    Em7  D      Cadd9
Then there will always be a place in my town called revelry.



[Bridge x2]

Em7                  D
  We know what it's like to be put down 
   Cadd9             G
So f**k you to the world, and stand your ground.
Em7             D             Cadd9                    G
We know how to turn it inside out and get a little bit rowdy.


[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9
I've been wasting away,
          G                                      Cadd9
But in a town with no way out, there's not much else to do anyway,
           G                       Cadd9
If you're looking for a place to decay, 
                  G                    Em7  D      Cadd9
Then there will always be a place in my town called revelry.


[Outro]

G         Cadd9
I'm not stuck I'm staying,
              G       Cadd9
Yeah I said, I'm not stuck I'm staying.
              Em7              D             Cadd9                 G
And if you've got sorrows to drown and the bottom's where you're bound,
           D7                      Cadd9                 G
You will always have a place in my town called revelry.
