Canals

Bm        Em
   I am a critic
D            A                  
   Of my own critical need to define
Bm
 myself
     Em                   D
With wine, and words, and lovers,
    F#
And friends who don't understand
Bm                  Em
   So there, I just said it
D                 A
  You know that admitting the 
problem
       Bm                   Em
Is the first step towards repair
          D
"We all recover"
        F#                         
Say the friends turned to 
  Bm
wine-drunk lovers


[Chorus]
G                  D              
Smile, tell me I'm alright with a 
F#
goodbye
        Bm
You are so misleading
G             D                  
  A kiss or a gun fight - 
      A
high-noon or midnight

         F#               G
Darling, I don't want to know
              D                F#
If I'm just a short sight on a cold 
night
       Bm
The canals are freezing
G                D              
  So tell me I'm alright with a 
A       F#
goodbye

[Verse Two]
Bm        Em
   Am I a villain
D             A
  Cast among heroes
                  Bm             
With all of their underwhelming, 
Em          D
overbearing struggles
     F#
To become what they'll never be?
Bm                Em
   Friends to the wicked
D            A                    
  Caution is calling, but nobody's
 Bm
 home,
               Em              
The lights are off, the party's 
 D
over,
           F#                      
Now you're stuck plucking three 
    Bm
leaf clovers

Smile, tell me I'm alright with a

[Bridge]
Em               G
  You've got the high ground
D               A
  And I'm on my best defence
   Em             G
But I dare you to come down,
D                  A/C#
  I'll give you an eye for an eye,
      C
If it makes things easy
