Bottom Of The World

[Verso 1]


D  
Austin’s changed, it’s 
G                 D       D 
true Show me what hasn’t 
            D             G              D     D 
Tonight the TV's throwing colors on the wall 
           F#m                            G      Em 
As watches cities of the world reduced to ashes 
             D           A             D      D 
From where I sit, at the bottom of the world 


[Verso 2]


          D 
Oh, there used to be a phone booth 
G                  D       G2 D 
Down here on every corner 
   G                                 D     G2 D 
He used to call me up just to say my name 
    F#m                       G       Em 
But now anybody gets is a busy signal 
                D              A             D      D 
No I can’t call home, from the bottom of the world 


[Verso 3]


          D 
She said, hey paper boy 
          G                   D          G2 D 
Don’t you think it’s time you delivered 
       D                  G           D        G2 D 
I said say the word, your wish is my command 
    F#m                          G       Em 
She ran me over like an eighteen wheeler 
              D           A             D      D 
and dumped my body at the bottom of the world 

Solo

[Verso 4]


        D                        G                D    G2 D 
You may think you know all there is to know about me 
          D         G               D     G2 D 
You might think the beast is in the cage 
    F#m                           G        Em 
But everything you see is just an illusion 
                  D            A             D      D 
It’s about to get real, at the bottom of the world 


[Verso 5]


    D                      G                     D            G2 D 
Oh, hey little boy, little boy you look a little frightened 
          D                  G                   D      G2 D 
For these aren't the kind of streets for walking alone 
   F#m                                     G        Em 
So why don’t you get yourself back home to Houston 
                     D              A             D      D 
I don’t think you’re ready, for the bottom of the world 

Outro 
                        D              A             D       G2 D 
No I don’t think you’re ready, for the bottom of the world.
