Song: My Life is in Storage
Album: Honeycomb
Tabbed by: ProverbialCereal

[intro]

 Am

[verse]

Am  G     C     
  I had a castle,
 F   E7    Dm
  I had no hassles
Bb    G7        C        
  Now tears are tassels, 
Am       G       C
  You're sure to know it
F      E7       Dm     
  Just when you blow it,
Bb     G7      C
  Then you can stow it


[chorus]

F    Em(add G)  Dm    F   Em(add G)     Dm
  My life is           in storage

F    Em(add G)  Dm    F   Em(add G)     Dm
  My life is           in storage


[verse]

Am     G      C
  Come take a voyage 
F    E7       Dm
  to personal storage
Bb    G7      C
  And we will forage, 
Am    G       C
  Leashes for my hounds
F    E7        Dm
  My tools for my grounds, 
Bb     G7      C
  Speakers for my sounds


[chorus]

F    Em(add G)  Dm    F   Em(add G)     Dm
  My life is           in storage

F    Em(add G)  Dm    F   Em(add G)     Dm
  My life is           in storage



[verse]

A      G       C
  Here are the pictures 
F    E7        Dm
  of permanant fixtures
Bb    G7           C
  Now they're just pictures 
A     G7    C
  Lying in this stack
F    E7     Dm
  Bakin' in this shack 
Bb          G7       C
  Of things I can't get back

[chorus]
  My life is in storage
  My life is in storage

[verse]
Am     G        C
  What life has become, 
F        E7       Dm
  Stored here for a sum
Bb          G7    C
  I hauled it, I feel dumb, 
Am     G       C
  Got my lock and key
F      E7     Dm
  Paid him in his fee, 
Bb    G7     C
  Now I wait and see

[chorus]
  My life is in storage
  My life is in storage

[break]
A                               C#m7
  I believe in your perfect face, I believe in your place in the sun
D                                   Bm                    E
  Can we leave now this dusty space, can we have a little fun?
A                             C#m7                     
  I was standin' at the podium, though I was a little drunk
D                           Bm               E
  To the darkened auditorium, I delivered my funk
A                                           C#m      
  You were standing at the edge of the light, tryin' not to be too impressed
D                                      Bm                  E
  I was tryin for the sake of the night, not to be too depressed
A                              C#m7
  I called you on the telephone, from a hotel in Beverly Hills
D                                      Bm                   E
  And, though, I was scared to the bone, you were givin' me thrills
A                               C#m7
  I believe in your perfect face, I believe in you place in the sun
D                                  Bm                     E
  Can we leave now this dusty space, can we have a little fun?
