Lived In Bars Tab

by Cat Power


Intro:       


We've lived in bars
    
And danced on tables
            
Hotel trains and ships that sail

We swim with sharks
                                   
And fly with aeroplanes in the air


Send in the trumpets
    
The marching wheelchairs
                     
Open the blankets and give them some air
                 
Swords and arches bones and cement
                                         
The light and the dark of the innocent of men

                              
We know your house so very well
                               
And we will wake you once we've walked up
         
All your stairs


                                
There's nothing like living in a bottle
                              
And nothing like ending it all for the world
             
We're so glad you will come back
                            
Every living lion will lay in your lap
                            
The kid has a homecoming the champion the horse
                                 
Who's going to play drums, guitar or organ with chorus
                           
As far as we've walked from both of ends of the sand
                        
Never have we caught a glimpse of this man


                              
We know your house so very well
                                       
And we will bust down your door if you're not there



We've lived in bars
             
And danced on tables
                          
Hotel trains and ships that sail

We swim with sharks
              
And fly with aeroplanes out of here
