Blast Damage Days

          C         G            Em           B
Whenever days slip away and every moment with me
                C           G              Em         B
feels like I’m floating in space because I want to believe
             C        G            Em           B
these are my halcyon days, but I’m afraid of my age
               C         G             Em           B
and don’t know anyone’s name because I can’t concentrate,

     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C  G  C  Am  x2

          C          G              Em            B
Whenever weeks slip away from being caught in the wake
         C         G            Em           B
of the American craze - the overtime, underpaid.
              C        G              Em             B
These are the Amazon days, we are the binge watching age
               C         G               Em             B
and we’ll be stuck in a screen until our phones fall asleep.

     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C  G  C  Am  x2

Em                  D              C
We’ll get lost and wander off distracted by fake news.
Em                  D                Am
When our towns fall to the ground it won’t shatter me and you

                C         G              Em             B
and when we’re looking around at all the shit that went down
               C            G                Em            B
‘cause half of us were too scared and half of us were too proud
            C          G            Em            B
to see the systems we start are destined to fall apart
             C          G               Em           B
when we let power and greed corrupt our collective heart,

     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C  G  C  Am  x2

Em                  D              C
We’ll get lost and wander off enraptured by fake doom.
Em                  E/D#               D                E/D#
When our towns fall to the ground, oh, it won’t shatter me and you

         G         Em            Am         D
whenever we feel ashamed being alive and awake
           G       Em           Am      D
in such an era of hate and military police.
              G           Em                Am          D
These are the mass murder days. We are the blast damage age
                G        Em                Am        D
where we can’t love anything because they keep us afraid,

    G       D        Bm       Em   D
oh, I will be there kicking, fighting,
  G         D        Bm          Em  D    G
beating, screaming, “There’s no fucking way
G   D    E/D#    Em D   C
I’m ever letting go of you.”

C  G  C  Am  x2
C  G  Em  B  x2
