Lyric Impenetrable
Intro: Am / Am+9 / Em7 / Dm7 (twice)
Am+9 means hammer the B, that is, Am 577555 Am+9 577557
Am
I m in a trailer with some white trash.
Em7 Dm7
They re drinkin beer and smokin grass
Am
There s a dumb chick with peroxide hair.
Em7 Dm7
She s got Axl Rose tattooed on her ass
Am
They re holding me up like a trophy in a hall
Em7 Dm7
Like a deer skin or a bear s head they bought from the mall
Am
I act like I m with them but I m behind a wall
Em7 Dm7
behind a wall in the darkness
CHORUS
Am Am+9 Em7 Dm7
Impenetrable I can t get inside of it no
Am Am+9 Em7
Impenetrable I ca - ah - ah - ah - an t
Am
Impenetrable (riff)
I wake up in a foreign bed.
The hotel is empty the porters are dead
The maids are diseased but the manager said:
I ll buy you a drink in the bar pal
Because you re our last customer. You re our last hope
The city s deserted, the Government s broke
I act like I m with him but I m ready to bolt
out through the door into the darkness
CHORUS REPEAT
Guitar solos over verse
Out in the darkness the New Year s crowd howl
It s the same celebration for 20 years now
I found myself there once alone in a crowd
And the rules haven t changed for a minute
They re hoisting an effigy up on a pole
It s someone I remember, it s someone I know
I can t place the face but when the gasoline flows
I feel the flames lick round my ankles
Fmaj7 Dm7 Fmaj7 Am
Aaaah oh aaah oh
Fmaj7 Dm7
Aaaah oh
CHORUS REPEAT
