Mosquito On The Wall Chords

(ver. 1)
The Wombats
[Verse 1]
C           Am          C            Am
I'm the mosquito on your wall and the doubt in your mind
C   Am        C                Am          F
The 17 missed calls and the key you can't find
Am         F       Am           C      Am C Am
Desperation does as desperation feels
 
[Verse 2]
C       Am                 C            Am
I'm the alarm that doesn't sound and the cork in your wine
C           Am           C                Am            F
Your snapped heel on the town and all transactions declined
    Am          F          Am             C     Am  C Am
You were the one song that I could not perform
E                F                   C    Am  C
You used to be my shelter from the storm
 
[Chorus]
F                                        Am
And its cold out on the West Coast and it's lonely by the sea
       C                              G
And the unemployment's rising and the pigeons never leave
        F                           Am
And you said we were forever as you held me to your chest
      C                         G
I was not your piece of clay, dear
G
I was your lump of lead
 
[Verse 3]
C            Am             C             Am
I'm the speed camera in the tree and the fine you can't pay
C      Am                        C                    Am              F
The spinning beach ball on your screen and the cr*p excuse when you're late
    Am           F           Am            C    Am   C  Am
You were the only book to ever put me in a trance
     E                 F           C   Am  C  Am
Yeah, you used to be my amber spyglass
 
[Chorus]
F                                        Am
And its cold out on the West Coast and it's lonely by the sea
        C                              G
And the unemployment's rising but we're still somewhat upbeat
        F                           Am
And you said we were forever as you held me to your chest
      C                         G
I was not your piece of clay, dear
G
I was your lump of lead
 
[Bridge]
F    C Am.    C G.     C D
 
F            C       Am
No slow dancing in the dark
Am            C         G
No lifeless kisses in my car
G             C        D
No awkward chats to family
D                     F
No Type A personalities
F             C         Am
No same two albums on repeat
Am         N.C.
Endlessly rolling in the deep
G                C           D
Spending each Friday night at home
D                          F  C  Am   C  G   C  D
I have more fun when I'm alone
D                          F  C  Am   C  G   C  D
I have more fun when I'm alone
 
[Chorus]
F                                             Am
And it's cold now on the West Coast, yeah, it's lonely by the sea
        C                                    G
And the unemployment's rising and we're still off to Tenerife
          F
Because we know we're not forever
         Am
We'll do no more than try our best
             C                     G
We'll never be their piece of clay, dear
G                      C   Am   C   Am
We'll be their lump of lead
C    Am   C    Am     C
Lead
