Disgruntled Lover

Album: School for the Dead - A Telephone Built for Two


[Verse]
     G           C           F           C        G           
Well I went to a shiny diner filled with gals and guys
  G            C                    F         C     G
I wore a fake, huge mustache. I was traveling in disguise
        G                   C                 F        C     G
But the juke box saw right through me, Brenda Lee was apologizing
    G                   C                       F     C   G
And I muscled my way up to the counter, all the while realizing
                  D                                 G
I was one of those disgruntled lovers, one of those disgruntled lovers
D
Maybe next time I will succeed.

 

[Verse]
     G           C                     F      C        G  
I surveyed my surroundings, everybody staring at their soups
     G               C                   F         C        G  
And if you asked any one of them, they'd each say they were duped
     G              C            F          C     G  
The room so full of suffering, I never felt so at home
     G               C             F              G  
With numbers we were buffering the pain of being alone
                  D                                 G
'Cause we were all disgruntled lovers, we were all disgruntled lovers
D
Maybe next time we will succeed.


[Chorus]
       C           D                G        D/F#         Em
'Cause everybody's moving on, while I'm just still here hanging out
C           D               G   E7
I'd move on too if I had my druthers
      C           D                G D/F#       Em
Yeah, everybody's taking off while I seem to be taking on
    C           D        G   E7
The air of a disgruntled lover
    C          D         G
The air of a disgruntled lover



[Verse]
      G                  C              F      C     G  
So I grabbed my book and backpack and I headed for a river
G                           C              F        C        G  
Hoping to get one of those epiphanies that they sometimes deliver
     G              C                      F      C    G  
But when I got down to the bank there were people all around
   G                  C                F        C        G  
It seems that someone left a note and then that someone drowned
        D                              G
It was a disgruntled lover, one of them disgruntled lovers
D
Maybe below they will prevail.


[Chorus]
       C           D                G        D/F#         Em
'Cause everybody's moving on, while I'm just still here hanging out
C           D               G   E7
I'd move on too if I had my druthers
      C           D                G D/F#       Em
Yeah, everybody's taking off while I seem to be taking on
    C           D        G   E7
The air of a disgruntled lover
    C          D         Em
The air of a disgruntled lover


[Bridge]
  C               D
I know my name is me
    C                  D
And that's not bad for now
     C                  D
Some things are hard to see
     C                 D
Some things are harder now


[Chorus]
       C           D                G        D/F#         Em
'Cause everybody's moving on, while I'm just still here hanging out
C           D               G   E7
I'd move on too if I had my druthers
      C           D                G D/F#       Em
Yeah, everybody's taking off while I seem to be taking on
    C           D        G   
The air of a disgruntled lover
                  B7
You know what I'm talking about
    C           D        G   
The air of a disgruntled lover
                                   B7
I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about
    C           D        G   
The air of a disgruntled lover
