Intro is the same as the chorus. G The record keeps skipping through dirty windscreens Am C And it's one never ending cliche highway scene G F/G Em and the visit's too short and the journeys too long C D It feels like we're trapped in some damn burnouts song C But no tool belts or steel caps just drums and guitars D And we don't work in mines we just sing songs in bars Chorus: C D It's a broken down dream but we call it a life G F/G Em Like a circus performer who swallows the knife C Just to spit out the handle and choke on the blood D It's a broken a broken down dream but we pray it's enough G I'd give the devil my soul for a good show tonight Am C Just a glimpse just a sign I'm not wasting my life G F/G Em Give me hellfire eternal when I'm done with this earth C D And Satan one more thing please let them buy merch C Cause the van is sure thirsty we've got a long way to drive D And we better get going or we won't make it on time Chorus: C D It's a broken down dream but we call it a life G F/G Em Like a circus performer who swallows the knife C Just to spit out the handle and choke on the blood D It's a broken a broken down dream but we pray it's enough C D x4 Am And the stranded bored and stagnant they point to their chains C And in hushed tortured voices ask how dare we complain Am They think the damnationon it comes standing still C But we know all too well it's this distance that kills Am All the flowers and crosses that haunt these roadsides C D And we swear sometimes it's like swallowing knives Chorus: C D It's a broken down dream but we call it a life G F/G Em Like a circus performer who swallows the knife C Just to spit out the handle and choke on the blood D It's a broken a broken down dream but we pray it's enough http://www.myspace.com/sydneycitytrash
