   E    G#m            F#       E
Close upon your lips, lyin' to me
C#m         G#m          F#           E
Sayin' I'm with you, wherever you'll be
   E      G#m        F#           E
A jumpcut to the bed we used to share
  C#m              G#m      F#            E
Before you had the baby and I cut off my hair

         C#m               G#m         F#
What's a life without the consequences?
         C#m               G#m           F#
What's a knife without the sharpened edges?

Chorus:
                    C#m G#m F#
Did I cut the wrong wire today?
                 C#m G#m    F#
Did I set it on fire?   The way
          E         G#m
Scotland burned in '44
              F#                 E
Like I never learned to leave a war
             C#m    G#m      F#
I just keep comin' back for more
     E
For more

A wide shot of the aisle of a grocery store
Panned down to the crooked wheel on the dirty white floor
Maybe all I'll ever be is a cameo here
A face a crowd might recognize that comes home twice a year
And then I disappear

Chorus:
Did I cut the wrong wire today?
Did I set it on fire? The way
Scotland burned in '44
Like I never learned to leave a war
I just keep comin' back for more

        C#m           G#m            F#
Can we take a walk before you walk away?
       C#m             G#m               F#
Can we try to talk, or will you call it fake?
        E            G#m             F# E
Can we take a walk before you walk away?
      C#m G#m  F#
Walk away

What's a life without the consequences?
What’s a knife without the sharpened edges?

Chorus:
Did I cut the wrong wire today?
Did I set it on fire? The way
Scotland burned in ’44
Like I never learned to leave a war
I just keep comin' back for more
For more
