G
C Am
The walls of our house are thinner than paper.
Em G C Am
The roof is a vapor that hangs in the air
C Am
And our wedding bed is made from the same stuff
G Em G C
Our bodies are ma---de of.
Em7 C Bm
If no heavy breath blew up these lungs
G C
(barre)
While dirt and wet spit hung, a ghost in the air--
D C D G
Well, we're still here.
C Am
While kids and their friends make war by the fire
G Em G C Am C
Their old men retire to drink and do dru---gs
C Am
()
We long for the truth; we argue about it
G Em G C Am
But most of us doubt it can ever be found.
Bb D G
(barre)
Is a ship without a captain just as doomed
C Am D
As a ship without a cre---w?
Bb D G
`Cause of all my friends who try to tell the truth
C Am
There are still a faithful few
C D
Who insist they won't know what to do
C Bm
If no heavy breath blew up these lungs
G C
(barre)
While dirt and wet spit hung, a ghost in the air--
D C D C
Well, we're still here.
D C D C
Well, we're still here.
D G
We're still here.
