Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties
Routine Maintenance
The little progression he does during the verses is a simple hammer-on on the B string while holding
the C chord.

At times in the chorus, an actual G sounds better than the G6add11 but because I couldn't really determine
which he was doing, you can decide your preference.
Comment if you have any questions!

[Verse 1]
C G6add11 C G6add11 C
It’s a new kind of empty, a beach town in the fall
Am G6add11 C Cmaj9 Am7add11 Fmaj7
It’s a new kind of silent, counting cracks in the wall
G6add11 C
There’s no one left to call
G6add11 C
I’m locked in a jail cell
G6add11 C
It’s a quarter past three
Am G6add11 C Cmaj9 Am7add11 Fmaj7
I can make out the weather on the lo-bby T-V
G6add11
It’s gonna rain this week
[Chorus 1]
Fmaj7 G6add11 Am C Fmaj7
But I’m a pair of black eyes that just got my ass kicked in the glow of an exit sign
G6add11
The cops got some friendly advice, says
Am C Fmaj7 G6add11
“You don’t want problems with the crew that runs with those guys”
Fmaj7 G6add11
Bloodied up in a bar fight
[Verse 2]
C G6add11 C
No one’s pressing charges
G6add11 C
I should get out by ten
Am G6add11 C Cmaj9 Am7add11 Fmaj7
The bartender said I was defending a friend
G6add11 C
Yeah, they jumped a guy I paint houses with
G6add11 C G6add11 C
The cops all got questions– is there somewhere you could stay?
Am G6add11 C Cmaj9 Am7add11 Fmaj7
I wore out my welcome at mom’s place in May
G6add11 Dm
I don’t know what she’d say
And I don’t talk to my Gsister much
Am G6add11 Fmaj7 Dm
I think she’s sick of my shit
She lives up in GBoston now
Am G6add11 Fmaj7
Has a life with her husband and kid
G6add11
I try not to fuck with it
[Chorus 2]
Fmaj7 G6add11 Am C Fmaj7
But I’m a pair of black eyes that just got my ass kicked in the glow of an exit sign
G6add11
The cops got some friendly advice, says,
Am C Fmaj7 G6add11
“I would skip town before I ran back into those guys.”
Fmaj7 G6add11
Bloodied up in a bar fight
I can’t bother AmMom
G6add11
I can’t bother Catherine
I can’t breathe through my Fmaj7nose
G6add11
I think that it might be broken
Am G Fmaj7 G6add11
I’m mastering the art of disappearing in the middle of the night
