Mosquito On The Wall

Ab Db Dbm


[Verse 1]
Db               Dbm     Db           Bbm            Db
I'm the mosquito on your wall and the doubt in your mind
    Bbm          Db          Dbm            Gb
The 17 missed calls and the key you can't find
Bbm          Gb    Bbm             Db
Desperation does as desperation feels

Bbm Db


[Verse 2]
         Bbm                  Db          Bbm           Db
I'm the alarm that doesn't sound and the cork in your wine
              Bbm           Db                         Gb
Your snapped heel on the town and all transactions declined
             Bbm  Gb                       Db
You were the one song that I could not perform

Bbm Db Bbm


[Pre-Chorus]
F                    Gb               Db
You used to be my shelter from the storm

Bbm Db


[Chorus]
N.C.      Gb                                  Bbm
And its cold out on the West Coast and it's lonely by the sea
         Db                             Ab
And the unemployment's rising and the pigeons never leave
          Gb                         Bbm
And you said we were forever as you held me to your chest
          Db                    Ab
I was not your piece of clay, dear

I was your lump of lead

Db Bbm Db Gb  x2


[Verse 3]
Db            Gb                Db         Gb
I'm the speed camera in the tree and the fine you can't pay
Db             Gb                    Db                 Gb
 The spinning beach ball on your screen and the crap excuse when you're late
                                            Fm
You were the only book to ever put me in a trance

Db Bbm Db


[Pre-Chorus]
Gb     F                   Gb      Db
Yeah, you used to be my amber spyglass

Bbm Db Bbm


[Chorus]
         Gb                                    Bbm
And it's cold now on the West Coast and it's lonely by the sea
            Db                               Ab
And the unemployment's rising but we're still somewhat upbeat
              Gb                    Bbm
And you said we were forever as you held me to your chest
          Db                             Ab
But I was not your your piece of clay, dear

I was your lump of lead

Gb Bb Bbm Db Ab Db Eb  x2


[Bridge]
F   Gb                       Bbm
    No slow dancing in the dark
             Db
No lifeless kisses in my car
Ab           Db
No awkward chats to family
Eb                 Gb
No Type A personalities

No same two albums on repeat
Bbm
Endlessly rolling in the deep
Ab            Db
Spending each Friday night at home
Eb                        Gb  Bbm Db Ab
I have more fun when I'm alone
Eb                        Gb Bbm Db Ab Eb
I have more fun when I'm alone


[Chorus]
          Gb                                     Bbm
And it's cold now on the West Coast, yeah, it's lonely by the sea
          Db                                   Eb
And the unemployment's rising and we're still off to Tenerife
             Gb
Because we know we're not forever
              Bbm
We'll do no more than try our best
                 Db                   Ab
We'll never be their piece of clay, dear
                        Db Bbm Db Gb
We'll be their lump of lead
 Db Bbm Db Gb
