Barely Human
By Robbie Fulks

Intro:
C#m B
E B E
A mouth full of teeth and a head full of brains
A E
Each morning, the soft rush of blood in my veins
A
The lips taste, the feet walk, a heart pounds within
E B C#m B
But I'm barely human after one glass of gin
E B E
What footprints are these in the fresh fallen snow
A E
And what kind of creature has hurt my wife so
A
Who kicked down the front door, I must have been gone
E B E
I'm barely human from twilight 'til dawn
Key change to F
F C F
She's fed up, she's leaving, and this time, for real
Bb F
But the thirst in my body is all I can feel
Bb
So slowly the clock turns, 'til night falls at last
F C Dm C
If I'm barely human, I can still lift the glass.
With one sip, the gin hits and wipes my head clean
And it brings me a vision, a boy of 15
His eyes raised to heaven, his heart strong and brave
F C F
But I'm barely human as I fall to my grave
