Itchy Teeth Chords

[Capo 10th fret]


Am         C
I've been left

Em          G
To lick my wounds

        Am C
For too long

        Em
Down to bone



Am        C
Calloused tongue

      Em
Itchy teeth

      G                 Am C
Metal mouth with rubber gums

             Em G
I can't talk now




[Chorus]


G       D      Am
Hold me for an hour

C       E7       F
Flowers bloom in less

      G          D         Am
We'll brace this crumbling tower

    C       E7    F
The harvest of distress



Am     C
Eke me out

Em      G
Make me last

       Am     C
I am a broken ship

          Em
A sinking mast



Am            C
You filled me up
 
             Em
And made the holes

           G
With fingertips

              Am      C
Red nails and cutting words

        Em G
Patch me up



[Chorus]

G       D      Am
Hold me for an hour

C       E7       F
Flowers bloom in less

      G          D         Am
We'll brace this crumbling tower

    C       E7    F
The harvest of distress
