The Mouse And I Cifras

[Intro]
Em
 
[Verse 1]
Em
Another winter morning,
      C
And I wake up feelin' old.
      G
And I know I’m not as old as some,
  D
I know that’s what I’m told,
            Em
But I still feel the rust is creepin’ in,
     C
As a mouse creeps through a hole,
    G
And pisses in the ceiling of my
D
old world childhood home.
 
Em (x4)
 
[Verse 2]
Em
So after gettin' tired,
   C
Of mouse piss in my nose,
     G
I dig up an old pair of traps,
    D
The kind with metal bones,
            Em
I can’t keep buying bread to fill,
  C
A little mouse's soul:
G
One more, Mark,
      D
and I feel I’m getting old.
 
Em (x4)
 
[Chorus]
           G
A mouse is free, a mouse is free,
   D               Em    D       C
To go and piss wherever they may please,
     G
They did it in my ceiling
          D                     Em     D  C
and left droppings like falling leaves,
    G          D
But how can I abide that rodent?
Em     D        C
Eating here for free?
G
Eating all the food
     D
that I     bought for me.
 
Em (x4)
 
[Verse 3]
  Em
So I woke up the next morning,
      C
And I checked on what I set,
  G
I didn’t expect to find a mouse,
    D
But instead I found one dead
           Em
and I just stood and stared in disbelief,
  C
I didn’t think it’d be
G                D
Well, just that easy.
 
[Verse 4]
  Em
I thought about the times that I've
C
eaten in life for free,
      G
And I thought about the kindest folks
    D
The ones that would feed me
            Em
and all the change I got from busking,
      C
Dirty Pennies in the street,
    G                      D
And realized that mouse is me..
 
[Chorus]
              G
And yeah it’s me, that mouse is me
    D               Em   D     C
and I will piss wherever I may please.
G                           D
If you’re leaving traps for me
                  Em    D  C
to bring me to my knees,
 
[Bridge]
     G
Well you have got the food inside,
    D
And you have got the heat.
          Em
So I will live inside your house's walls
    C
And piss wherever I please.
    G
And I won’t be the only one,
        D
There’s millions just like me.
    Em
And we will not be pushed away,
   C
We won’t accept defeat
            G                    D
because the cold kills more than you can
        Em              C
and the world is waking up.
G                      D
Millions of people are being kind,
    Em              C
And telling you to *shut the fuck up.*
      G                   D
We’ll burrow through your house's walls,
    Em             C
and curl up in the heat.
 
[Outro]
    G                D            Em    D  C
And I will piss wherever   I may please.
    G                D            Em    D  C
And I will piss wherever   I may please.
      G                         D                 Em    D  C
It'll start with piss but it'll bring you to your knees.
G              D
I wish I could tell that mouse that:
    Em
I’m sorry
