Less Than Jake is a ska-punk band formed in 1992 in Gainesville, Florida. They were recently released from their contract with Warner Brothers. Their current line-up includes Chris (vocals, guitar), Roger (bass, vocals, guitar at certain live shows), Vinnie (drums, lyricist), Buddy (trombone, bass at certain live shows) and JR (saxophone). The band's name derives from a dog Vinnie had while growing up, which was treated better than the rest of the family. It's also a reference to the phrase &quot;everything is jake,&quot; which is an old phrase meaning everything is cool. 

Less Than Jake est un groupe de ska punk américain originaire de la petite ville paumée de Gainsville, ce qui ne manque pas de faire rire les membres du groupe. Le groupe peut se vanter d'être un des plus connus de la troisième vague ska, se distinguant par ses deux chanteurs. Récemment, Less Than Jake a opté pour un son plus commercial, qui a augmenté leur popularité mais n'a pas forcément ravi les inconditionnels des premières années.  

Less Than Jake ist eine Ska-Punk Band aus Gainesville, Florida, USA, welche 1992 von Vinnie Fiorello, Chris Demakes und Roger Manganelli gegründet wurde. Der ungewöhnliche Name stammt von der 80 Pfund schweren Bulldogge, die Vinnies Eltern besa

# Verse- only uke 1 plays throughout the verse
 Ab                  Eb
I fell asleep last Saturday
 F
Underneath polluted skies
 C#
I walked alone on those Jersey nights, and I
 Ab                      C#
Saw the boardwalk start to fall
 F
The emptiness starts to drown
 C#
The quiet corners off this town, and I...
 Ab        Eb               F
Late last night, I made my plans
C#
It was the only thing I felt I could do
 Ab      Eb             F
Said goodbye, to my best friend
                    C#
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth

# Chorus: Guitars 1 and 2 play the same chords here:

Ab            Eb                    F
It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
 C#                                   Ab
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
            Eb                       F
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
           C#
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life

# Then that carries on through the next verses and choruses-so I gave you the 
# lyics but 
# this interlude bit later on- so thats where I've written in the chords

Verse:

This is my all time low
Somehow it feels so familiar
Somehow it seems so familiar
I feel like letting go
And every second that goes by
I'm screaming out for a second try
Said goodbye, to my best friend
Sometimes there's no one left to tell you the truth

Chorus:

It's gonna kill me... The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
I've got to live with them rest of my life

Interlude:
F                 F#
This is the mess I've made
F                  F#
These are the words I can't erase
           F                            F#
This is my life support, shutting down, for the final time
 F
And it twists like a blade
    F#
And kills me for the rest of my life

And back to the original chorus chords here:

If you won't forgive me
The rest of my life
Let me apologize while I'm still alive
I know it's hard to face all of my past mistakes
It's gonna kill me for the rest of my life...

# So that's it. Please rate it if its good enough cause its my first tab but
# im sure its 
# Thanks

#                        THE END

Rest Of My Life

In With The Out Crowd

Just talked to this girl,
        G                D
used to live, yea, on my street. (woah-oh-oh)
      A
After all these years you're here,
    G            D
and you remember me. (woah-oh-oh)
A              G   D  A
  She said her old boyfriend
              G      D
packed up and headed back east.
A          Bm               G
   But she always knew some day...
         A
he would go.


She just got a new job
          G           D
and she's down to her last. (woah-oh-oh)
         A
So let's take a drink and never think, yea
G             D
here's to the past. (woah-oh-oh)
A            G  D  A
She said its so funny,
              G   D  A
how life runs out so fast.
          Bm             G    D  A (Stop)
It's just another wasted day.

         A
A boring life in a boring town
         G               D
with the same old crowd. (woah-oh-oh)
       A
When I used to say, that I'd never stay
        G            D                 A
But I'm rotting here today. (woah-oh-oh)
          G    D   A
With that same old crowd
             G    D A
thats always been around.
Bm      G                  E
  And I always thought I'd be
             A
the first to go.

              E
That same old crowd,
              F#m
that drags me down.
 E      D               A
Another day in a boring town.
              E
That same old crowd,
               F#m
that brings me down.
  E      D                A
A boring life in a boring town.


Just talked to this girl,
        G                D
used to live, yea, on my street.
      A
After all these years you're here,
        G                  D
and its still just you and me.
A
  Sometimes I can't believe after all these years
G                   D           A
  I just think I'll never leave here.
              G  D  A
She said it's so funny,
              G   D  A
how life runs out so fast.
            Bm
Let's take another drink,
    E
and here's to the past.

(same as first chorus but ends on Bm)
 That same old crowd,
that drags me down.
Another day in a boring town.
That same old crowd,
that brings me down.      Bm
A boring life in a boring town.

       G               D              A
And remember when they looked through you,
         G           D
and then looked past me.
            A                     E
We were the ones they said would always leave.
Bm             G        D        A
   So when you go, just think of me,
G            D
think of me. (woah-oh-oh)

Interlude

         A(hold)
A boring life in a boring town

With that same old crowd,
             G    D A

All My Best Friends Are Metalheads

Hello Rockview

F        Am      Dm   
I've come to my senses,
C
That I've become senseless,
F       Am       Dm         C  
I could give you lessons on how to ruin your friendships,
F       Am       Dm         C 
Every last conviction, I smoked them all away,
F       Am       Dm         C
I drank my frustrations down the drain, out of the way,
Dm   Am               Dm  
So I sit and wait and wonder,
C                          Gm
"Does anyone else feel like me?"
            F                        C
Someone so tired of their routines and disappearing self-esteems,



[Chorus:]
F    Dm    C
I'll sing along,

Yeah with every emergency,
F    Dm   C
Just sing along,

I'm the king of catastrophies,
Dm   F    C
I'm so far gone,
                        Dm         F       C     
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me,
                 F
I'm my own worst enemy


F       Am    Dm        C
I could be an expert on co-dependency,
F       Am    Dm        C
I could write the best book on underage tragedy,
F       Am    Dm        C
I've been spending my time at the local liquor store,
F       Am    Dm        C
I've been sleeping nightly on my best friends kitchen floor,
Dm   Am               Dm
So I sit and wait and wonder,
C                           Gm
"Does anyone else feel like me?"
       F                 C
I'm so over-dosed on apathy and burnt out on sympathy.



[Chorus]


F               Am
Let the meaning slip away
Dm               C    
Lost my faith in another day,
F               Am
Self deprication seems okay,
Dm                          C
I never thought I'd make it anyway

I'm my own worst enemy [x5]

The Science Of Selling Yourself Short

E                              B
We rode across that bridge all night
              A
we talked our way through city lights
E                                  B
traced all the lines we're killing time
           A
under those buzzing signs

     E                         B
from downtown to anywhere but here
  A             E
tonight yeah I swear to these rooftops
        B                     A
and just hoped that car would never stop
        E              B    A          F#            A     B
  And I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try
            E               B    A
  and we'll walk in circles around this whole block
   F#                        A            B
   walk on the cracks on the same old sidewalks
E             B     A           F#
    and we'll talk about leaving town
                A          B
     yeah we'll talk about leaving
        E                  B   A         F#     A      B
     I swear it's the last time I swear it's my last try

                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm

into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm

Am

         Dm

    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave

Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm

Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm

Why Cry

You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D

Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long

G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D

I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A

Somehow we end up on the same side

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

But lately I just lost the fight

Chorus:

Funny how fallin? feels like flyin?

 For a little while

Funny how fallin? feels like flyin?

 For a little while

      A
I got tired of bein? good
        D
Started missing that old feeling free
     E
Stop actin? like I thought I should
    A
And went on back to bein? me

  
I never meant to hurt no one
  D
I just had to have my way
           E
If there's such a thing as too much fun
A
This must be the price you pay

 You never see it comin? till it?s gone

Situations

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
