verse 1
 E                                                                                                         D 
It's a midwinter Friday and there's not a car on this highway
                                                                   C 
That wouldn't hit me just to get home.
                                                                                                                 B 
I'm riding punch lines and dregs from the pouch that we split
somewhere back on Punt Road.
 E                                                                       D 
And the big neon signs they all intertwine
                                                                                             C 
With the passing cars' headlights burning my eyes.
                                                                                           B 
In this city of excuses, dead palm trees and useless transport,
                     A                                       B 
I use my legs to get to you on time.
         A                                                   B                                                   C 
But silence speaks louder than words that we don't understand,
                               E                     D                     A 
And I know the language is made out of
                   B                                             C 
One upmanship and slight of hand.
                     A       B       C                                                           A 
But it's all we've got to explain how they made us,
 E                 D                               A 
Unable to explain how they made us.
 E                 D                             E     D     C   B 
Unable to explain how they
verse 2
 E                                                                               D 
And I'm naked except for donations, rank revelations,
                                                                         C 
My own bad behavior, pissing off the neighbours.
                                                                                         B 
Lying to colleagues about how interesting I am,
                                                                           E 
Just so part of me is nothing like them and
                                                                                   D 
The clubs up on Swan Street pulse to the backbeat of violence and sadness
                             C 
and god awful sweat heat.
                                                                                                   B 
They tarnish reputations and they smash up train stations,
So angry they forgot what they were angry about.
 A                                                                     B 
This city is a punching bag for the punished to let something out.
 A                                       B                                       E                           D                     C 
But how can you stay mad when the red sun spits straight through the clouds
           B 
like this?
                 A 
And the cold bites my skin.
         B 
And you bit my upper lip.
Chorus 2
         A                                                   B                                                   C 
But silence speaks louder than words that we don't understand,
                               E                     D                       A 
And I know the language is made out of
                   B                                             C 
One upmanship and slight of hand.
                     A       B       C                                                           A 
But it's all we've got to explain how they made us,
     E                 D                               A 
Unable to explain how they made us.

Unable to explain how they
