Verse #1:
    G                       G
See my old man has a broken heart
         Em    -         Asus4   -    Gsus4
He got a leaky valve and aneurysm, but trace it back to the start
          G                                    G
When that big ol' fire came towards the Nannup town
          Em    -            Asus4   -       Gsus4
Well that greedy thing burnt more than the bush down



Chorus:
        Asus4   -          Bsus4 -  Gsus4
You can bury that head and try to forget
                  Asus4   -            Bsus4  -   G       G
He's still waking up with Coffee, Methadone & Cigarettes



Verse #2:
       G                                G
In the summer of fifty-eight when innocence, shattered and broke
    Em    -            Asus4   -            Gsus4
The tree, the egg, the nest, the breast, the yolk
           G                                G
When those thieving flames took my Granddad from my Pa
         Em    -               Asus4   -         Gsus4
Gnd ever since then we've been mending all those scars


Chorus:
        Asus4   -     Bsus4  -          Gsus4
But the bandages and ointments ain't done it
                  Asus4   -            Bsus4  -   G       G
He's still waking up with Coffee, Methadone & Cigarettes


Verse #3:
     G                   G
That broken bird somehow grew
         Em    -            Asus4   -              Gsus4
With the seven brothers and sisters moved from the country to the zoo
            G                                G
Between the legacy visits and the boarding schools
       Em    -              Asus4   -    Gsus4
Yes he learned to dodge the books and he learned to dodge the fools


Chorus:
          Asus4   -          Bsus4  -       Gsus4
Says he's made mistakes but lives with no regrets
                  Asus4   -            Bsus4   -   G       G
He's still waking up with Coffee, Methadone & Cigarettes

Verse #4:
G                                 G
Grandma on Sunday, used to eat the chicken leg
             Em    -               Asus4   -           Gsus4
She said she wasn't hungry and the kids could have the rest
           G                               G
When those kids grew they learnt what she'd done
          Em    -       Asus4   -            Gsus4
She would go hungry for all of them she'd go hungry for everyone


Chorus:
              Asus4   -          Bsus4  -     Gsus4
Gnd now she's gone and it's hell in the hand basket
                  Asus4   -            Bsus4   -   G       G
He's still waking up with Coffee, Methadone & Cigarettes
