F Am Tobacco stains our yellow teeth F And all our fingers and underneath Am Our fingernails that clasp on sheets F As we try desperately to sleep Am Hearts are sad and eyes are tired F And all this Red Bull keeps us wired Am It gives us wings, it gives us rings around our eyes A# F We put three sugars in our tea C Sit to watch daytime T.V Dm And laugh at mums who don’t know who the father is F And all our girlfriends are long gone C We watch too much internet porn Who needs love when you’ve got silicone and strap-ons? And beer bloats our spoilt guts And shit jobs keep us in ruts And keep us eyeing up the what’s and if’s and buts and maybe’s and Falling over in the street Is just a part of every week And we lie drunkenly just staring at the stars Remember when they were in reach And all the teachers used to teach You can do anything if you put your mind to it We put our minds to it all But disappointment crashed the ball We could’ve done anything We just never quite knew it Chorus: A# F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight It's to be a cold night A# F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight Dm A# It's to be a cold night F C Tie your scarf on tight F It's to be a cold night You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  F  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
