Unpleasant Breakfast

                 A        B
Every morning we burn the bread
                    A      E
Walk it down to the waters edge
                     A      B
See the seagulls eat cigarettes
                       A     E
Check your breath in a spoon

                      D       B
All your stuff in the storage shed
                      A       E
Twisted sheets on the trundle bed
                A      B
And the anti-psychosis meds
                    A      E
Made you feel all marooned

[Pre-chorus]
B
Last summer at the shore when I was 
working cleaning carpets
A
At some hotel that was haunted by 
some sailor who supposedly was 
murdered
E
After losing all his treasure in the
 harbor
A
That's back when I found romance in 
these ghosts

[Chorus]
B     A
I was honestly more bothered
E      A
By the hundred miles of hallways
B        A
Than the clanking of the shackles
E      A
Or the shadows in the doorway

B      A
And we snuck into the ballroom
E        A
And made echoes in its empty
B     A
And I grabbed you and I spun you

E
And we both just started laughing

A B x4

[Verse]
                     A   B
All the burns on the windowsill
                       A      E
Says she's crazy 'bout horses still
                     A   B
All these anti-psychosis pills
                  A     E
So much power and grace

                  D     B
Up there on South Ocean View
                       A        E
All the shells made me think of you
                 A         B
We bought into a three for two
                 A     E
And a strawberry shake

[Pre-Chorus]
B
First it's April then it's August, 
it's the cost of doing business
A
You were scared and overcautious, 
the whole breakfast was unpleasant
E
You just can't keep throwing up and 
then cover it with sawdust
A
And expect us not to notice and 
pretend it didn't happen

[Chorus]
B    A
Last summer at the shoreline
E        A
When you walked into the water
B    A
Went out up to your waistline
E          A
And turned back to face the camera

B           A
Rolled your eyes back in their 
sockets
E        A
Then you raised your middle fingers
B A
Defiant and undamaged
E
That's when I took the picture

[Bridge]
B A/B
    A                 E
And this year we were standing
B A/B
        A           E
Looking out off the veranda
B A/B
           A                  E
You said, "Yeah, I guess it's pretty
B A/B
          A               E
But I'm a shell of what I once was"
B A/B
     A                   E
That girl in last year's picture
B A/B
       A                E
Is now haunting her own hallways

     A                             
I no longer see the romance in 
  E
these ghosts
              B                   
This coffee's cold, this toast is 
A/B
gross
     A                             
I no longer see the romance in 
  E
these ghosts
