Transcription: Xavier Flament
C* means you have to play a standard C but with some pull-off
effect (C7) as shown below.
C*: -0-0-0---
-3-1-0---
-0-0-0-(2)
-2-2-2---
-3-3-3---
---------
There's always a little bit of hammer-on/pull-off at the
end of each phrase.
Verse 1:
-------
G D C C*
The same long faces in workman's hall
Caramel crisp counts his birds
Cliff chip's lines up his dominoes
Kingfisher lead singer calms his nerves
Chorus 1:
--------
D C
I'm drinking sinking swimming
Drowning working smirkling learning
Burning sleeping thieving cheating
D G D
Beating I'm eating I'm deep in a goldfish bowl
C C* C9
It's sink or swim
Verse 2:
-------
G D C C*
The hall down town just burned to the ground
G D C C* C9
My boxing ring turned to ash
Red head ginger bread sells tickets at the door
Stella sleep walks in the sand
Chorus 2:
--------
D C
I'm drinking sinking swimming
Drowning working smirkling learning
Burning sleeping thieving cheating
D G D
Beating I'm eating I'm deep in a goldfish bowl
C C*
It's sink or swim
They're looking in
They're looking in
Verse 3:
-------
Hard up outta luck to ride the village bike
A bike been used ten times or more
Grape vine here's the wife lays down her royal flush
I think I've lost another wife
(chorus 1 & 2)
