The Gaslight Anthem - American Slang - Acoustic lyrics

Artist: The Gaslight Anthem

album: The B-Sides


Look what you started
I seem to be coming out of my skin
And look what you've forgotten here
The bandages just don't keep me in
When it was over, I woke up alone
When it was over, I woke up alone
And they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive
I got your name tattooed inside of my arm
And I called for my father, but my father had died
While you told me fortunes in American slang
Look at the damage
The fortunes came for the richer men
While we're left with gallows
Just waiting for us liars to come down and hang
When it was over, I woke up alone
And when it was over, I woke up alone
Well, they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive
I got your name tattooed inside of my arm
Oh, I called for my father, but my father had died
While you told me fortunes in American slang
And here's where we died that time last year
And where the angels and the devils meet
And you can dance with the queen if you need
And she will always keep your cards close to her heart
Oh, close to her heart
Before they tear you apart, hmm
And they cut me to ribbons and taught me to drive
I got your name tattooed inside of my arm
And I called for my father, but my father had died
Oh, we called for our fathers, but our fathers have died
And you told us fortunes in American slang
Oh, you told me fortunes in American slang
