Karma Bar

 
        Em 
Take me home to chicken pad thai, foreign girls, 
    A7 
and shoes not being mandatory 
     Em 
To swimming in the sea, slightly grazing your knee 
            A7 
and needing anti-inflamatories 
     C                 Em7 
To a place you reborn, life's not long enough 
   A 
to waste in a job you hate 
     C                        Em7 
It's tough to survive, if you don't value life 
           A 
for just a handsome young reprobate 
 

 
          Em 
There's a place I used to go when I needed to be alone 
     A7 
in a sort of spiritual way 
       Em 
Walked south to a bar I knew. The girls were golden 
A7 
Cocktails blue 
C                         Em7 
Make sure you eat, you'll need your strength son 
A 
It's your island. You're number one. 
C                    Em7 
Don't fuck it up. No blood to clean up 
         Am 
would be worth going home 
            F 
Where you'll feel so alone 
 

 
               Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Yeah, but I'll lie here staring at my ceiling 
               Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Pretending the cars going past are the waves that I'm hearing 
               Cmaj9/E     Em7   Esus4 
I'll lie here, holding back the tears from my eyes 
         Cmaj9/E                        Esus4 
When I'm asked how I'm doing, Yeah I'll lie. 
          Em  A Em  A 
Yeah I'll lie 
 

 
  Em                     A7 
I wonder what the deal is, would I be remembered 
Em                                                        A7 
Would the damage still be there now those thoughts have been rendered 
        C                 Em7 
Could I sit at my spot in karma bar 
        A 
could I walk into banyan. I took it too far 
C                      Em7 
Ask me how it feels to know those days are gone 
A 
ask me where I'm going on my next trip, alone 
C                        Em7 
Ask me what I'm doing in Buchannan street singing 
A 
everything I do here is a crime 
               F 
Ask me how I'm doing I'm fine 

               Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Yeah, but I'll lie here staring at my ceiling 
               Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Pretending the cars going past are the waves that I'm hearing 
               Cmaj9/E     Em7   Esus4 
I'll lie here, holding back the tears from my eyes 
         Cmaj9/E                        Esus4 
When I'm asked how I'm doing, Yeah I'll lie. 
           Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Yeah, I'll lie 
               Cmaj9/E     G6/9/E   Em7 
Pretending the cars going past are the way that I'm feeling 
               Cmaj9/E     Em7   Esus4 
I'll lie here, holding back the tears from my eyes 
      C                                       F F Em 
Go on ask me how I'm doing and I feel alright!
