Cant Kick Up The Roots

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Eb                                 Ab
  The golden groves are lined with affluence and roses
          Eb
But the bagheads down by Central Station
    Ab
Are closer to where home is
Eb                              Ab
  It can be grim and send you West from time to time
           Eb
Yeah, this place is such a shipwreck

[Pre-Chorus]
         Cm        Bb     Ab     Cm
But this shipwreck,  it is  mine Day by day,
Bb           Ab             Eb
  we grew to love this place
            Cm
And where I make my grave,
Bb     Cm       Bb Ab
  my anchor lays

[Chorus]
Eb                   Ab
I've been wasting away 
         Eb
But in a town with no way out
                 Ab
There's not much else to do anyway
          Eb                         Ab
If you're looking for a place to decay 
                Eb                         Cm
Then there will always be a place in my town
Bb  Ab
  called revelry

[Verse 2]
Eb
  I've seen a punch or two,
Ab
  narrowly escaped a few
       Cm              Bb
And if you can get the day off,
        Ab
I could show you a view
Eb
  I remember the football games
Ab
  The first time that I got laid
        Cm               Bb              Cm     Bb  Ab
And the time J broke his finger drinking by the lake

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm         Bb           Ab             Eb
Day by day,  we grew to love this place
            Cm           Bb            Ab
And where I make my grave  is where my anchor lays
    Cm          Eb           Bb                Ab
The sound of my youth echoes out through these empty
streets
  Fm
I guess I can't kick up the roots;
     Ab                        Bb
It's home, and that's the truth

[Chorus]
Eb                   Ab
I've been wasting away 
         Eb
But in a town with no way out
                 Ab
There's not much else to do anyway
          Eb                         Ab
If you're looking for a place to decay 
                Eb                         Cm
Then there will always be a place in my town
Bb  Ab
  called revelry

  We know what it's like to be put down 
                   Fm
So fuck you to the world,
                   Cm
and stand your ground
               Ab               Eb
We know how to turn it inside out and get a little bit
Fm   Eb
rowdy
Cm                  Ab                Eb
  We know what it's like to be put down

So fuck you to the world,
                   Ab

Eb      Bb              Cm Ab
I'm not stuck, I'm staying
             Eb      Bb              Cm Ab
Yeah I said, I'm not stuck, I'm staying
              Eb             Bb
And if you've got sorrows to drown
        Cm                    Ab
And the bottom's where you're bound
         Eb            Bb             Cm  Bb   Ab      Eb
You will always have a place in my town called revelry.
