Cannon Fodder

[Verse 1]
C                 G      Em            C
Bloodstains on my collar powders on my dollars
C               G                 Em               Dsus2
Filthy haze and something strange stuck beneath my skin
     C                 G                                C
And I miss the past and your sweet laugh ringing from the holler
       Em              C
Oh but what a waste to dream and chase for
C      D      Em
we are cannon fodder
 
[Chorus 1]
C                    Em7
Oooooh how we all pretend
  G              Em              G               Em7
Although we know not a soul will be there in the end
     G           Dsus2        C             Em7
It’s funny how a bottle feels closer than a friend
G           D        C            G         C  G
Never holds back and always gives in
 
[Verse 2]
C           G        Em               C
Who you are now is a warm and distant feeling
C             G              Em             Dsus2
Keeps my ears ringing like a gunshot on the porch
C               G                            C
In our prime we both may find something to believe in
         Em              C
But it’s curing time and my last dime’s gonna
C      D           Em
Put me through the ceiling
 
[Chorus 2]
C                    Em7
Oooooh how we all pretend
  G              Em              G               Em7
Although we know not a soul will be there in the end
     G           Dsus2        C             Em7
It’s funny how a bottle feels closer than a friend
G           D        C            G         C  G
Never holds back and always gives in
G           D        C            G
Never holds back and always gives in
