Frank Turner - Plea From A Cat Named Virtute Chords [Intro] G C F C [Verse 1] G Why don’t you ever want to play? C I’m tired of this piece of string D You sleep as much as I do now and you C G D/F# Don’t eat much of anything G I don’t know who you’re talking to C I’ve made a search through every room D But all I found was dust that moved C G D/F# And shadows of the afternoon [Chorus 1] G And listen C About those bitter songs you sing Am They’re not helping anything C G They won’t make you strong [Verse 2] G So we should open up the house C Invite the tabby two doors down D You can ask your sister if C G D/F# She doesn’t bring her basset hound G And as for things you shouldn’t miss C Tape hiss and the modern man D Cold war and card catalogues C G D/F# To come and join us if they can G For girly drinks and parlour games C We’ll pass around the easy lie D Of absolutely no regrets C G D/F# Then later maybe you could try G To let your losses dangle off C The sharp edge of the century D We’ll talk about the weather or C G D/F# How the weather used to be [Chorus 2] G And I’ll cater C With all the birds that I can kill Am Let their tiny feathers fill C Disappointment G Lie down C Lick the sorrow from your skin Am Scratch the terror and begin C G To believe you’re strong [Instrumental] G C F C [Bridge] G D# Em C All you ever want to do is drink and watch TV C G C Frankly that thing doesn’t really interest me G D# I swear I’m going to bite you hard Em C# And taste your tinny blood D# D Em Am If you don’t stop the self-defeating lies you’ve been repeating C Since the day you brought me home G C F C I know you’re strong G C F C I know you’re strong G C F C I know you’re strong G C F C I know you’re strong [Outro] G
