Verse 1
(listen for the strumming on the first C and G)C
Time to lay claim to the evidence
G
Fingerprints sell me out
F
But our footprints washed away
From the docks downtown
It's been getting late for days
C
And I feel myself deserving of a little time off
G
We can kick it, hang for hours
F
And just mouth off about the world
And how we know it's going straight to hell
Pre-ChorusCmaj7
Pass me another bottle, honey
The Jaeger's so sweet
G
But if it keeps you around, then I'm down
ChorusC
Meet me on Thames Street
I'll take you out
G
Though I'm hardly worth your time
FFmaj7
In the cold, you look so fierce
G
But I'm warming up
Because the tension's like a fire
C
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
G
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
FFmaj7
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
G
But there's room for two
CCmaj7
Six feet under the stars
Verse 2C
I should have known better than to call you out
G
(On a night like this, a night like this)
C
If not for you, I know I'd tear this place to the ground
G
(But I'm all right like this, all right like this)
C
I'm gonna roll the dice
Cmaj7G
Before you sober up and get gone
I'm always in over my head
Chorus 2C
Thames Street
I'll take you out
G
Though I'm hardly worth your time
FFmaj7
In the cold, you look so fierce
G
But I'm warming up
Because the tension's like a fire
C
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
G
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
FFmaj7
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
G
But there's room for two
C
Six feet under the stars
Bridge
Time to lay claim to the evidence
G
Fingerprints sell me out
F
But our footprints washed away
G
I'm guilty, but I'm safe for one more day
Cmaj7
Overdressed and underage
G
Do you really need see an ID?
F
This is embarrassing as hell
G
But I can cover for it so well
C
When we're six feet under the stars
("stars" overlaps "thames" so if your singing by yourself just dont say stars and go
to the Chorus )
Chorus 2C
Thames Street
I'll take you out
G
Though I'm hardly worth your time
FFmaj7
In the cold, you look so fierce

And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
FFmaj7
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
G
But there's room for two

Six feet under the stars
