Bath Is Black (acoustic)

	  		
 

Intro: D6 

D6 
Even though you think 
                    D6 
to push me from the bath into the sink 
                G 
I can still get clean 
                E7 
from everything obscene 

   D6 
So just pass me the soap 
                     D6 
and I will scrub so hard to have the hope 
                      G 
that one day I'll be free 
                       E7 
and flies won't follow me 


           Bm 
But if the bath is black 
        G 
and the soap is old 
       Bm                          G 
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold 
Bm 
try as you might 
G                 G                   Em                 
E                 A7 
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours 
    A7 
and you're not coming home to 


D6 
All this mess undressed 
                    D6 
I'll put you to the test just try your best 
               G 
Put your apron on 
                     E7 
I feel it's been too long 

       D6 
Since you last made me laugh 
                       D6 
instead my hands have stuck to you with tar 
                     G 
and I can't get them off 
                      E7 
I leave prints on the clock 


           Bm 
But if the bath is black 
        G 
and the soap is old 
       Bm                          G 
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold 
Bm 
try as you might 
G                 G                   Em                 
E                 A7 
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours 
    A7 
and you're not coming home 


G 
tonight 
                  Em 
you're not coming home 
G 
tonight 
                  Em 
you're not coming home 


   G 
to all this mess undressed 
                    Em 
i'll put you to the test just try your best   (4x)


             G 
Cause if the bath is black and the soap is old 
       Em 
You're turning the hot tap but the water is cold 
G 
try as you might everything you 
Em 
try as you might everything 


           Bm 
But if the bath is black 
        G 
and the soap is old 
       Bm                          G 
you're turning the hot tap but the water is cold 
Bm 
try as you might 
G                 G                   Em                 
E                 A7 
everything you've prayed for won't be done until you've paid for all your hours 
    A7                        D 
and you're not coming home
