G           D     
Everytime i go to dinner
G                          D          
it seems like im getting a little bit thinner
G                    D         
I'll sit down at the breakfast table
G               D          
i can talk, but theyre not able
G              D     
When i look at them i find
G                         D              
there's a single question on their mind.
G                              D      
i wish it could go back to the way it was
G		D	     Em
its not easy no because...
         C              G
My whole family thinks im gay
            D                G
i guess its always been that way.
          C                  G
Maybe its cause of the way i walk,
                D                   Em-C-G-D Em-C-D-G-D-G        
that makes them think that i like...boys

The goddamn question just wont go away
cause i get asked every single day
but the way they ask it is no disguise,
like "How was your day? Do you like to kiss guys?"
This is the worst, baby this was my fear
Now their opinions are crystal clear.

Intro

D  G  Bm  A



D          G                Bm  A            D    G  Bm A     
I used to walk through life,         now I frolic.
D                         G         
Youtube has been like a father to me,
           Bm     A            D   G  Bm  A
Except Youtube's not an alcholic.
D                            G                      
Before Youtube I was just a skinny white kid,
                      Bm         A
that thought he was funnier, & cooler
                     D  G  Bm  A
than he actually was.
     D                  G
and now not much has changed,
   Bm        A                D  G  Bm  A
but I have a shitload of money.

          Bm                    G                       A   
Because Youtube is a place for people to share their ideas.
Bm                           
If by people you mean
 G               
13-year-old girls,
         A
and by ideas you mean
                  A
how they love the Jonas Brothers.
 Bm
I'm just kidding
     G
But let's be honest,
                      A
that's a hefty majority.
         Bm              G
And if you don't believe me
  D             A
You must be a noob

Chorus
A                     D
So, Welcome to Youtube!
            G
You don't know what you're missing,
      Bm
and just by searching,
    A
"Women Kissing".
         D
-It's Youtube!
        G
This country's been needing a
  Bm
generation of kids who
        A
don't waste their time reading.
 G
Am I the only one who thinks that
             A
Lisa Nova's hot?
                       D  G  Bm  A
And Chris Crocker's not...
          D  G  Bm  A
he's hotter.

D                 G
Most of the best Youtubers
           Bm              A
are either asian or their gay.
         D
So if there's an untapped
         G
youtube celebrity,
       Bm                 A
and his name is George Takei
        D
and your favorite coat
        G
has a doo-doo stain.
    Bm
I pray to god that it's
A
chocolate rain
    D
And I find videos of
 G                 Bm    A      D  G  Bm  A
babies laughing a bit intrusive.

D                     G                          A
Because Barack Obama won the election because of Youtube
        D        G 
Wait, did I say youtube?
            A
I meant the black vote
             D           G
And I think Youtube and Fred are
  A
"So Cool!"
     D
And What The Buck!
        G     Bm         A
will be back in a jiffy lube

A                    D  G
So, Welcome to Youtube!
 A
Yeah...
A                  D
So, Welcome to Youtube!
G      A
Hey...
A                D
Welcome to Youtube!
D          G
I said, listen and linger,
 Bm                  A
Charlie the Unicorn bit my finger!
            D
It's youtube!
      G
The impact is evident.
      Bm                       A
Miss Teen South Carolina just ran for Vice President!
     D
Upload a video,
G                      A
You have nothing to lose!
                       D  G  Bm  
except all your friends...
         A                   D  G  Bm  A
& the approval of your parents..

 D                 G
"Hi, my Mary, and I'm 19 years-old
        Bm                             A
I got drunk at a party, and I think someone
                       
was video-taping it, but I don't want
 D
anyone to see it, cuz
 G                   A
I showed half of my boob!"

Sorry Mary!--

A                 D  G  Bm  A
Welcome to Youtube!
                    D  G  Bm  A
Say Hello to Youtube!

Yeah... 
                           D              Bm  A
Say goodbye to your College Scholarship.
     Bm                                      A
And it will keep on going and it'll never stop!
                    D
Until it's privatized.

Now I don't know if all boy scouts are gays
                Am                             G
But they could probably "tie the knot" in like fifty different ways...
          C                            F   
I got a safe full o' cherries, cause I pop it and lock it,
     Am                          G           
A girl's like a fridge, once a week you should stock it,
     C                                                 F  
And girl, if your into a rimmin its only safe if your swimming,
                Am                                G
And girl don't sit on the couch cause I treat my objects like women.
   C                F
I spit fire like I just blew a demon
     Am                      G       
My shits so hot I leave the toilet bowl steamin
C                                F
Girl I'm gonna tear it, like the cards of the gypsies
      Am                            G
You'll bleed for so long you'll get monthly ellipses.
        C                              F
If the pants are loose, girl I'll replete ya
          Am                       G
You're a first time vegan and its nice to meet ya
 
Chorus

  C

And im the greatest rappa eva
         Am                                G
And I'll weather your weather whether you think im clever or not
                      C
Think your better your not
              F
Don't need a sweater im hot

G                  G7                      C                D
  I love you like kings love queens, like a gay geneticist loves designer genes
G                     G7                           C                 D
  I need you like New Orleans needs a drought, like Hitler's father needed to learn to pull out
G               G7              C             D
  And I want you, yeah, like a lawyer/mathematician wants some kind of proof
G               G7           C   D C D                      G
  And I want you, yeah, like JFK wanted a car with a roof...


         G         C                      Em                             D
  Because love is taking that dive, then getting really comfortable and peeing in the pool
     G           C               Em                       D
  And love is a real life porn, minus all the stuff that makes porn cool
     G           C            Em                            D
  And love is a homeless guy searching for treasure in the middle of the rain
     G           C                      Em                            D
  And finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they're all filled with chocolate

  G      G7
 Ranch...

  And I want you, yeah, like all the gothic kids that look exactly the same, never want to conform
G7                     C         D C D   N/C                              G
  And I want you like Anne Frank wanted nobody to read her fucking diary!

  G
 "Because a diary is a collection of secret things that nobody's supposed to read,
  that's the whole point of a diary. Millions of people that have breached this little girls privacy
  after she was chased by Nazis - kick her while she's down..."


G7                       C          D
  And if we met in ten thousand BC, I was your caveman, you's my cavelady...
     G                                   G7
  If we got hot - we'd start rubbin', if we got hungry - we'd go clubbin'
C                                        D
  There's wooly mammoths, but I will protect us - you're making me devolve to a Homo Erectus
C                        D
  And if we met in 1780, I would be a white southern aristocratic plantation owner

  and you were my dark-skinned servant lady... (slave)


G                                              G7
  Whenever I could get away from the Missus, I go to your shed and then I'd steal you kisses
C                                           D
  But let's be serious, I'd still work you full-time as a slave

  There's a difference between romantic language and complete disregard for socio economic trends...
C                 D
  If it was 1941, I was a Nazi, you's a Gypsy on the run - that's a little redundant
      G           G7                        C      D
  That probably wouldn't have worked out...


C    D   G              C                Em                D
  Because love is your favorite food for every breakfast, lunch and dinner
     G             C                  Em                      D
  And love is the Holocaust - if you don't die quick and you don't get thinner
     G         C                    Em             D
  And love is being the owner of the company that makes rape whistles
     G                  C                       Em                        D
  And even though you started the company with good intentions trying to reduce the rate of rape,
G                        C                               Em
  now you don't want to reduce it at all, 'cause if the rape rate declines
     D                             G             G7
  you'll see an equal decline in whistle sales...
C                    D                    G         G7
  Without rapists, who's gonna buy your whistles?
C        D                     G
  Yeah, love is all about... whistles

And I don't watch you when you sleep.
     Am         F              C            G            Am
Surprisingly I don't use my omnipotence to be a fucking creep

 F          C     G      Am
You're not going to heaven
        F              C              G            Am  
Why the fuck would you think I'd ever kick it with you?
      F         C     G    Am
None of you are going to heaven
           F       C      G            Am  
There's a trillion aliens cooler than you

Am Am Am Am

      Am                     F                    C                  G     G
You shouldn't abstain from rape just 'cause you think that I want you to
      Am              F                               C              C   G                 
You shouldn't rape 'cause rape is a fucked up thing to do

Like verse:
Am F C G
(Pretty obvious, just don't fucking rape people, please, didn't think I had to write that one down for you)

   Am               F             C             G   
I don't think masturbation is obscene
      Am         F              C                G                Am 
It's absolutely natural and the weirdest fucking thing I've ever seen
            F            C        G      Am               F         C
You make my job a living hell and I sent gays to fix overpopulation
    G              Am
And boy did that go well


 F          C     G      Am
You're not going to heaven
      F          C             G       Am  
Eat a thousand crackers sing a million hymns
 F              C     G      Am
None of you are going to heaven
       F        C
You're not my children
         G          Am
You're a bad game of Sims

Am Am Am

      Am                     F                    C                  G     G 
You shouldn't abstain from pork just 'cause you think that I want you to
    Am              F                               C              C   G 
You can eat pork 'cause why the fuck would I give a shit?

Like verse:
Am F C G
(I created the universe, think I'd draw the line at the fucking deli aisle?)
    Am            F              C      G
You argue and you bicker and you fight
Am        F                   C      G             Am
Atheists, Catholics, Jews and Hindus argue day and night
     F                  C     G
Over what they think is true
    Am            F                    C              G              Am
But no one entertains the thought that maybe God does not believe in you

F           C      G      Am
You pray so badly for heaven
        F      C             G            Am
Knowing any day might be the day that you die
    F             C           G     Am
But maybe life on earth could be heaven
        F        C                     G       Am
Doesn't just the thought of it make it worth a try

Am Am Am

   Am                 F     C                G
My love's the type of thing that you have to earn
             Am   F  C            G       G      G
And when you earn it you won't need it need it need it
   Am                 F     C                G
My love's the type of thing that you have to earn
             Am   F  C        G 
And when you earn it you won't need it

G G G
 
    Am                 F                  C                    G     G G G
I'm not gonna give you love just 'cause I know that you want me to
   Am              F                               C       C       
If you want love then the love's gonna come from you

We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:

I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away

I wheel my bike off the train,

Up the North Trade Road,

Look for you on Marley Lane

In every building, every streetlight

Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are

You can get a big house and a faster car

You can run away boy, but you won't go far

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.
