I pity inanimate objects -- part deux: maybe cigs and drinks have a romantic life together? They obviously get along quite famously. Thanks to Kara Hetz for making it all sound even smokier. Also worthy of note: the Rob Novak (first) lead, and the Fowler closer. Guitar geek breakout track.
lyrics
LAST CIGARETTE
Gm C
…thought I was your last cigarette
Cm
something sweet and stupid to
F (E F bounce)
die a little with
Gm
I dangled
C
you lit
Cm
and breathed me in
F
it only burned a little bit
Bb
together we marked the time
Cm
between lager and limes
F
something to do
G#
while staring into
C#m
the mirror or anything
G#
But..
…C#m …G#
F (w E F bounce)
Solo over:
Gm – C - Cm –F
Bb -- C G# - G - F
Gm C
thought you were my last little drink
Cm
someone sweet and sour
F
to live a little with
C
before we ask for the bill
Bb
give me one more little chill
G
and I’ll just cry a little bit
cause
Cm
I’m not
G
your last cigarette
Cm -- G
INSTR OUT
Gm—C F -- G# -- G
C -- Bb F -- G# -- G -- C
Fade on the C……………..
