Australia

• Eb

Eb                           F
I could do the dishes while talking on the phone
        Eb                            F
I could ask you for an answer but you want to be alone
        Eb                           F
I could never do the dishes a single dish at a time
          Eb                       F
It's too much of a commitment so I line them up and fire

        Eb
I could calamine your insides
        F
I could wind them all around me I could
Eb                             F
Tiptoe on a tightrope made of fear and looking down see
        Eb                         F
All the people do they see me I can wave or
                    Eb
I can carry all the dishes that they gave me that are
F
Keeping me steady

Bb         F       Gm
Or I could go to Australia
        Eb      F
Carry a bowie knife
            Eb                F             Gm
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
          F               Eb
And learn card tricks and buy
           Gm            F          Eb                
Everyone drinks and take boxing and write
Gm          F        Eb
Songs about my bowie knife

Gm      F        Eb              Gm
I could do these dishes I could try
   F         Eb
To do these dishes

Eb            
I could try..

Eb      Gm     F
I could bake a cake
    Bb         F                          Eb
My kitchen is small but I could clear the space
Eb     Gm        F
I could write my name
        Bb             F                            Eb
Because practice makes perfect yes that's what they say

Eb                            F
I could make a button out of plaster
                           Eb
That said finished I could hang it in my closet
       F
To the left side of a lightswitch
        Eb                             F
I could walk down to Columbus and try drinking to forget it
         Eb                             F
and then come home less afraid and then press it and press it

Bb         F       Gm
Or I could go to Australia
        Eb      F
Carry a bowie knife
            Eb                F             Gm
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
          F               Eb
And learn card tricks and buy
           Gm            F          Eb                
Everyone drinks and take boxing and try
              Gm        F               Eb
Eating things only with chopsticks and write
Gm          F        Eb
Songs about my bowie knife


Gm      F        Eb              Gm
I could do these dishes I could try
   F         Eb
To do these dishes
          Gm      F         Eb
I could decide to do these dishes
I could decide..

Bb         F       Gm
Or I could go to Australia
         Eb      
Carry a bowie knife
    F                 Eb             F                
And wear my hair like Hepburn parted on the side
           Gm             F            Eb
And learn card tricks and physics and buy
           Gm            F          Eb                
Everyone drinks and take boxing and try
              Gm        F               Eb
Eating things only with chopsticks and finally
          Gm       F               Eb
Be like a person I think you might like

Gm      F        Eb              Gm
I could do these dishes I could try
   F         Eb
To do these dishes
          Gm      F         Eb
I could decide to do these dishes
          Gm      F         Eb
I could decide to do these dishes
F       Eb
Time to DECIDE...
Fuck it
Bb        F       Gm     Eb
I'm gonna go to Australia
Bb        F       Gm     Eb
I'm gonna go to Australia
Bb        F       Gm     Eb
I'm gonna go to Australia
Gm          F       Eb
She's gonna go to Australia
    Eb  Bb
Bye Bye!
