Penny And Sparrow
Honest Wage Chords
Em C
When you called, it was loud, I got angry
G D
I was everything but sober
Em C
I said things that were ruthless, and I meant 'em
G D
But you told me to come over
Am
You say he's in town, and you're crying
G Bm7
And you're throwing him one hell of a party
Am
So I hang up and start shaking
G Bm7
Thinking you never threw one for me
G Em
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
C D
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
G Em
You're not always fair to me, like I wish you would be
C D
He's the one who left home, I'm the one who stayed
Em C
So I drove when I shouldn’t, but I make it
G D
I'm feeling alright
Em C
You walk out, I'm a mess, you look perfect
G D
I figured you might
Am
Next thing I know, I'm exploding
G Bm7
And everything feels awful and wrong
Am
And he's there right beside you
G Bm7
But the music inside is our song
G Em
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
C D
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
G Em
You're not always fair to me, like I wish you would be
C D
He's the one who left home, I'm the one who stayed
[Repeat chorus a few times]
G Em
I just get so angry when you say you love us both
C D G
I wanna be more like him, I wanna know there's hope
