House Of Chaos 333 S Henderson

• E

Another from the new Ghost Mice/Ramshackle Glory Split Album (2013)
All of the chords are barre chords again. 

There are two real strum patterns in this song. I refer to them as
"verse strumming" and "different strumming" here and point out when each is used. The verse strumming has
rests in it whereas the different strumming is more constant.

E B A B (X4)(verse strumming)
In April I moved in 
To the house on Henderson
I felt alive again
It was good to be with my best friend

E B A B (X4)(verse strumming)
And we were gonna steal things
We were gonna break things
We would learn to make things
Ya, we were gonna take back the things we lost

E B A B (different strumming)
Ya, we were gonna take back the things we lost

E B A B (still different strumming)

E B A B (X4) (Back to verse strumming)
There was the devil chain
That Danzig told Sam how to make
She nearly killed a cop
So we threw it in the attic and the door was locked

E B A B (X4)
There were those shiny plates
That would hit the street and sing and break
And the cops were called, and the cops would come
And we would always run run run run run

E B A B (different strumming again)
Ya we would always run run run run run

E B A B (still different strumming)

E B A B (X4) (Back to verse strumming)
We had to pay our rent 
But we weren’t gonna work for it, no
We’d find some other way
We’d steal something new every day

E B A B (X4)
One time our phone was ringing
Sam smashed it into pieces
When I found her and asked her why
She said because it rings all the time

E B A B (different strumming again)
It rings, rings, rings all the time

E B A B (still different strumming)

E B A B (X4) (Back to verse strumming)
One 9 AM Sam came in
And I asked her "where you been?"
She had duct tape all over her head
And a gory poster in her hands

E B A B (X4)
She said "I joined the army"
"I've been giving the pro-lifers shit"
She said "I’ve been up all morning
And I really need to take a nap"

E B A B (different strumming again)
So she took a nap

E B A B (still different strumming)

E B A B (X4) (Keep with different strumming this time)
These days, and all these broken things
They were true, so true, so true
For everything we broke, we filled our hearts with hope
And we learned to make a lot of new things too

E B A B (X2) (Keep with different strumming still)
Like mistakes, Like mix tapes, Like vegan chocolate cakes
Like 7 inch records and silkscreens like record labels and 'zines and dreams

E B A B (X2) (Play each chord once and hold it!)
And the fire in the kitchen made it black and awful
But we just painted it all grey and we ate the falafel that Sam made

E B A B (different strumming again)
Ya we ate the falafel that Sam made?

E B A B (still different strumming)

E (last chord)
