[Intro]

Em   D   A7   C
 
Em   D   A7   C
 
[Verse]

     Em
I'm starvin', darlin'
 D
Let me put my lips to something
A7                                C
Let me wrap my teeth around the world
       Em
Start carvin', darlin'
    D
I wanna smell the dinner cooking
    A7                            C
I wanna feel the edges start to burn
 
[Pre-Chorus]

       C        A7
Honey, I wanna race you to the table
Em                    D
If you hesitate, the gettin' is gone
         C               A7
I won't lie if there's something 

to be gained
         Em               
There's money to be made, 
    D
whatever's still to come
 
[Chorus]

Em
Get some
                        
Pull up the ladder when 
      D
the flood comes
                        
Throw enough rope until 
     A7
the legs have swung
                           
Seven new ways that you can 
 C
eat your young
         Em
Come and get some
                             D
Skinning the children for a war drum
                          
Putting food on the table 
         A7
selling bombs and guns
                          
It's quicker and easier to 
 C
eat your young
 
[Post-Chorus]

Em   D   A7   C
 
Em   D   A7   C
 
 
[Verse]

          Em
You can't buy this fineness
 D
Let me see the heat get to you
A7                                  C
Let me watch the dressing start to peel
        Em
It's a kindness, highness
  D
Crumbs are not for everyone
A7                                C
Old and young are welcome to the meal
 
[Pre-Chorus]

         C         A7
Honey, I'm makin' sure the table's made
Em                      D
We can celebrate, the good that

 we've done
         C             
I won't lie if there's 
 A7
something still to take
 Em                       
There is ground to blame, 
    D
whatever's still to come
 
[Chorus]

Em
Get some
                        
Pull up the ladder when   
      D
the flood comes
                        
Throw enough rope until 
     A7
the legs have swung
                           
Seven new ways that you can
  C
 eat your young
         Em
Come and get some
                             D
Skinning the children for a war drum
                           
Putting food on the table 
         A7
selling bombs and guns
                          
It's quicker and easier to 
 C
eat your young
