House On Fire

	  		This song is on the new (2013) split with Ramshackle Glory 
The whole thing uses barre chords, except the low E chord but that's the same structure  
as a barre chord. 

A  G#      C#m         E 
I hope my house burns down 
A  G#      C#m     E 
I hope my cat gets out 
A               G#          C#m      E            A           G#       C#m 
The rest of my stuff it can all burn up and I'll never think about it again 

A    G#    C#m       E 
I'll just go travelling 
A     G#   C#m     E 
I'll stay with my friends 
A                   G#        C#m       E    A      G#    C#m 
I'll sleep on their couch and I'll help out around their house 

A     E     A    E       A           E                    C#m   A 
I'm caged, I'm chained, we're all slaves to the things we own 

C#m A C#m A B 

A   G#      C#m     E 
I hope our gas runs out 
A   G#      C#m          E 
I hope everything shuts down 
A                    G#          C#m       E       A                G# 
then I can hear the sounds that used to be around before we started making 
      C#m 
this noise 

A           G#              C#m    E 
I'd like to give something else a chance 
A            G#       C#m        E 
to fill the world up with their trash 
A             G#        C#m       E          A      G#    C#m 
then we could relax, we could go back to the way we were before 

A         E       A          E      A       E                  C#m  A 
we lost our souls, we lost our home, we all know, something's wrong 

C#m A C#m A B 

C#m    A           E            G# 
    We know we are owned by our own 
C#m          A           E          G# 
liberties we know we are helplessly hungry with 
C#m       A              E           G# 
greed we know it hasn't always been like this 
C#m                  A             C#m         A               C#m 
and we know, we're a long way from home we can feel it in our bones that 
A             B             A            end on C#m 
aching secret wish that this would end
