Tim the Lion Tamer – Whistleblower chords

[Intro]
Am F C G Em F

[Verse]
Am                                      F                CI came down here to sell the drugs you hid beneath your bed
   G                 Em              FI came down here to bend my crooked soul
       Am                             F                 CAnd I wish you'd have the decency to tell me what they said
          G            Em               F'Cause trouble walks beside me, as you know


[Chorus]
       Am            C               F            COh and if I was a fighter, then a fighter I would be
         G                 Em        FBut the more I fight, the more I'm fought
       Am            C             F               COh and if I was a sailor, I would sail across the sea
         G                 Em              FBut the more I dream, the more I know I'm not

[Interlude]
Am F C G Em F

[Verse]
Am                                      F                CThe cats upon the rooftops weep, the winter stole the sun
   G                 Em              FThe hour's™s come of which the poets feed
       Am                             F                 CAnd I guess that I must stab the eye of someone who's in charge
         G            Em               FI say; the more I stab, the less I bleed


[Chorus]
       Am            C               F            COh and if I was a painter, I would paint the snow all green
         G                 Em        FI'd stroke the sky to cover up the grey
       Am            C             F               COh and if I was a waiter, I'd be waiting for the spring
         G                 Em              F'Cause trouble walks beside me everyday

[Interlude]
Am F C G Em F

[Verse]
Am                                      F                CWell, I guess that I could love you even when my heart is faint
   G                 Em              FBut I did not come to kiss your broken bones
       Am                             F                 CYou'll hear the sound of thunder traveling through the wind
         G            Em               FThe whistleblower's come to claim his home


[Chorus]
       Am            C               F            COh and if I was a drinker, I would drink away the blue
         G                 Em        FBut the more I drink, the thirstier I get
       Am            C             F               COh and if I was a runner, I would run my way to you
         G                 Em              FBut this trouble's not gonna let me forget
