(Verso 1)
C
Dictated to by empty streets,
Am
Chain stores and big machines
G
The snow falls hard on soft debris
F
And I know this town don't envy me
C
And the locals all seem nice enough
Am
But they cross streets I dare not walk
G
I'll drive the extra couple of blocks
F
And stop when I am told to stop
C
And everyone in this shitty bar
F
Is just trying to sink their teeth into everybody else
C F
Give me East London summer, give me North Melbourne summer
(Verso 2)
C
Nothing makes you feel more alive
Am
Than being surrounded by things that have recently died
G
And on this goddamn bitter cold late November night
F
The kids put on their coats to go see the Christmas lights
C
Urban undeveloped wastelands of Michigan
Am
Sleet falls on my jacket teeth are chattering again
G
And the locals all drink and love, fight when they have drunk too much
F
The kids look like they grew up knowing how to take a punch
Am G F
And the month old front pages from local newspapers dance
Am G F
On the lonely winds around the empty lobbies of once grand buildings
C
And everyone in this shitty bar
F
Is just trying to sink their teeth into everybody else
C F
Give me East London summer, give me North Melbourne summer
C
Let's be anything, let's be lovers, we'll take care of one another
F
Live like people I looked up to in the time when I was happier
C F
Give me East London summer, give me North Melbourne summer

And now I'm smoking weed in New York City

I pass out piss drunk on the floor of a motel room

Wake up shivering and thinking about you

And I'm tired
Em F G
I'm so tired
C
And everyone in this shitty bar
F
Is still trying to sink their teeth into everybody else

Give me East London summer, give me North Melbourne summer

Give me East London summer, give me North Melbourne summer
