The Arrogance of the Drunk Pedestrian The Smith Street Band
(Intro) D Bm A
[D]With the arrogance of the dru[Bm]nk pedestrian[A]
[D]Taxi driver looks[Bm] down my girlfriends [A]top
[D]Asks politely if [Bm]he can be a gentlem[A]en
[D]Pulls his aviators [Bm]down so he doesn't have to[A] stop
[Bm]And we'll keep on through the sh*t storm[D]
Until the metaphors are literal
Forced screams are guttur[Bm]al
And we'll keep on through the sh*t sto[D]rm
Until the metaphors, until the metaphors
[G]When I said this i[A]s all I[G] had I [A]meant it
[D]Nice speak in the tired cli[Bm]chés[A] of a strip club D[D]J
Marvelous [Bm]things so quickly get[A] mundane
[D]When you see the scaffolding[Bm] behind me
And all the dirty[A] air it always blocks your way
[Bm]And we'll keep on through the sh*t[D] storm
Until the metaphors are literal
Forced screams are g[Bm]uttural
And we'll keep on through the sh*t sto[D]rm
Until the metapho[Bm]rs, until the metap[A]hors
Until the metaphors
When I [G]said this was [A]all I [G]had I m[A]eant it
When I [G]said this wa[A]s all [G]I had I [A]meant it
When you [Em]said I [F#m]was a bad [G]person I[A] felt it
When I sa[Em]id this [F#m]was all I [G]had I mean[A]t it
When you s[Em]aid tha[F#m]t I had des[G]troyed yo[A]u
I knew that [Em]part of you was[F#m] trying to d[G]estroy m[A]e too
When I [Em]said that I [F#m]wanted to d[G]ie I meant[A] it
When I s[Em]aid that you [F#m]saved my [G]life I mea[A]nt it
But goodbye
[(Bm](Goo[D]db[A]ye[G] [)]) x3
end on A
