Little Girls

G
All the words in my mouth
         Em                                       
That the scene deemed unworthy of letting out
      Am
Banded together to form a makeshift militia
            D                                       
And burrowed bloodily through my tongue and my teeth.
        G
I stood proud in the gallery
       Em
With my open socket of a mouth for them to see.
            Am
They all just laughed and said
          D                  Am      D
"That boy, he, that boy's got woe.   Woe.
             Am      D
He lives with woe.   Woe."
         G
And this girl who I met
     Em
Whose pride makes her hard to forget,
       Am
She took pity on me horizontally
        D
But most likely because of my band.
                G
It's all I can get when I'm lonely
         Em
And these visions of death seem to own me
      Am
In the quiet of the classrooms
   D                                   Am      D
All across the stacked United States of woe.   Woe.
            Am      D
We live with woe.   Woe
                     Am
She said "I can't get laid in this town
             D
Without these pointy fucking shoes.
           Am                             D
My feet are so black and blue and so are you."
              C         G
Please take me out of my body
  Em          D
Up through the palm trees
  C         G         Em       D
To smell California in sweet hypocrisy.
C          G         Em          D
Floating my senses surround my body.
C        G       Em         D
I wake my nose to smell that ocean burn.
C        G       Em           D
La Da Da La Da Da La Da Da Da Da
           Am 
So now I'm forging ahead
             G               D
Past all the plutocrats who sold me out.
    Am
Go sob in your bed.
            G               D
If life is twice as pretty once your dead
      Am
Then send me a card.
                 G             D
I'm still the optimist though it is hard
 Am                 D
When all you want to be
          C     G     Em     D
Is in a dream,    a dream.
C        G       Em           D

Every Man Has A Molly

An &quot;Intense and oddly uplifting rocker about a relationship torn by the Holocaust&quot;, the song is actually semi-biographical in nature telling about songwriter and vocalist Max Bemis's grandparents who were Holocaust survivors. It talks about their lives in the ghetto, in hiding, and in the camps. In an interview with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Bemis said: &quot;I thought about what it would be like to be in love and be separated from the person you love, because these times are just as dire in a way.

maggots pray upon the living dead
G            F                        C
i had no interest in the things she said

Total Revenge

...Is A Real Boy

               A                                F#m   
And if I could swim, I'd swim out to you in the ocean,
                           E               D
Swim out to where you were floating in the dark.
             A                                     F#m
And if I was blessed, I'd walk on the water you're breathing,
                              E               D
To lend you some air for that heaving, sunken chest.

            D                C#m             Bm           A
'Cause they chose you as the model for their empty little dreams,
          D                 C#m                Bm         A
With your new head and your legs spread like a filthy magazine.
         D                  C#m              B7
And they hunt you, and they gut you, and you give in.

And if I was brave, I'd climb up to you on the mountain,
They led you to drink from their fountain spouting lies.
And I'd slay the horrible beast they commissioned
To steer me away from my mission to your eyes.
And I'd stand there, like a soldier, with my foot upon his chest,
With my grin spread, and my arms out, in my bloodstained Sunday's best,
And you'd hold me; I'd remind you who you are under their shell.

    D            A        E           F#m                   D
I'd walk through hell for you, let it burn right through my shoes
      A         E       F#m     D
These soles are useless without you
        A        E            F#m       D
Through hell for you, let the torturing ensue;
   A       E       F#m
My soul is useless without you...

C|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---6h7/9---6-6\4\2-----------------6h7\9---6-6/4\2---------------4/6---|



And if they send a whirlwind, I'd hug it like a harmless little tree.
Or an earthquake, I'd calm it, and I'd bring you back to me.
And I'd hold you in my weak arms like a first born.

I'd walk through hell for you, let it burn right through my shoes,
These soles are useless without you
Through hell for you, let the torturing ensue;
My soul is usless without you...

Through hell for you
Through hell for you
Without you, without you...
Through hell for you.
Without you...
Through hell for you

         D              A        E
Now I've walked through hell for you.
          F#m           D
What's an adventurer to do,
    A          E       F#m             D
But rest these feet at home with you?

A Walk Through Hell

Intro:

C		F 	   C                F
If I'm just a slave to my high school days
C                F            G
Then when does a boy become a man
C           F         G             Am
They say at 16 I will get tough and mean
F                  C          G
College prep rally pep peachy keen
C              F   C                     F
And ill meet a gal and take her to the prom
        C            F               G
And maybe we'll make out by the old viewpoint
      Am           C            Am             C
But, there are no gals, no pep rallies, good pals

C
Stay away from these high school

Verse:
C                        F
My teacher says that I'm brilliant
G                     C   Em
My mother says I'm a star
Am                        F
My girlfriend just avoids me
F   E  F     E     F   E    
 E   F  E
But I still pay for the dinner and the movie
C                       F
My room is filled with abandon
G                       C        Em
My homework is yet left undone
Am                  F
I look at pictures of myself
F   E  F     E     F   E    
 E   F  E
As a small child all filled with hope and so alive but

Chorus:

C                     F
Oh, these high school days
                C                     G
Take that away, take me away, take me away
C               F                  C               G
Stress and hard duress replace the hope I had everyday
C                     F
All these high school days
          C             G
Take that away, take myself away
Am                              F
If only I could skip forward or back
F   E  F     E     F   E    F E  F  E				Am    F
The best years of my life oh my god I hope not lets go
C                G
I hope not lets go

Verse: (Use above chords)
My friends are overachievers
My love is burning my down
My left nut has this crazy itch during homeroom
oh god that girl just saw me scratch my
all control is now spiraling
my grades look pretty damn low
I want to motivate myself,
but how the hell am I supposed to work I do not

Chorus:

C                      F
Love these high school days
          C		G
Take that away, take me away, take me away
C               F                  C          G
Stress and hard duress replace the hope I had everyday
 C                     F
All these high school days
C                         G
Take that away, I take myself away
Am                              F
If only I could skip forward or back
F             E      F   E   F    
   F   E   F   E               Am      F
The best years of my life oh my god I hope not lets go
                 C                    G
I hope not lets go
C                        F  C  	         F
So listen young boys to the words that I speak
C             F            G
Heed then and hold them to stay
C         F         C        Am
Never let go of the cowboy inside
F                    G             C
Or he'll die in your high school days


High School Low

(verse 1)
A                              E
Here comes the sadness that I miss so much
  G                             D 
That lonely aching comes from every touch 
 A                            E
I?ve grown accustomed to the grays and blacks
              G                D 
Because they?re always coming back (coming back)
A                              E
Sit down for supper, won?t you dine with me
G                           D 
Or can?t you handle seeing all I see 
A                           E
I?ve grown to colorblind to cease my bitching
          G                 D 
And I?ve grown to love the pain 

(chorus)
        A                  E                       G              D
And I move too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will
           A  E  G  D
be the last. 

# The chords are the same for the rest of the song

(verse 2)
Here comes a view I?ve seen a million times 
Here comes a boring song with thoughtless rhymes 
I know you?re sick of me so tell me here 
Because you could have been the one 
To make it all disappear.

(chorus)
But I move too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last. 
Too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last

Solo: A  E  G  D  x2

(1,2,3,4)
And I move too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last. 
Too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last
Too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last
Too slow and I think too fast and the first rainbow I see will be the last 
It will be the last...

Colorblind

B           A        F#m          E7
I feel so stupid now that we are apart
B            A
You've got a boyfriend
F#m               E7
Ive got a broken heart
B             A
Im glad youre happy
  F#m              E7           B
I know he plays on varsity but
             A        F#m              E7               F#m
Do you still miss me when everything is quiet in your room?
Chorus:
                      A               E7
If you could give me one more chance I swear
          B                  F#m
Id give anything to be with you
                   A           E7 
If you could only turn my way again
               B                
Dont fall in love with someone new
Someone new
B           A          F#m            E7
One lonely Sunday will you drop by my home
B            A             F#m              E7       B
Wipe off the tears I shed since I have been alone
                    A
Lay your head on my shoulder
       F#m          E7      B
Thats all I need to go on
          A             F#m              E7
Just one last moment of looking in your eyes
[Chorus:]
F#m                    A               E7
If you could give me one more chance I swear
          B                     F#m
Id give anything to be with you
                   A           E7 
If you could only turn my way again
               B                
Dont fall in love with someone new...
Someone new...

F#m                    A              E7
If you could give me one more chance I swear
          B                  F#m
Id give anything to be with you

                   A          E7 
If you could only turn my way again
               B                
Dont fall in love with someone new
Someone new

F#m                    A               E7
If you could give me one more chance I swear
          B                  F#m
Id give anything to be with you
                   A           E7 
If you could only turn my way again
               B                
Dont fall in love with someone new

Manhattan

Hate Everyone

G
There's a cemetery deep below the sea
C
There is spaces reserved for fools like me
Em
Tried to kill myself at least a dozen times
c
But nothing seemed to turn out right
G
Now I'd rather wait a half a century
C
Soiling the bed belligerent and wrinkly
Em
Even when I go blind and lose my mind
C
Nothing seems to turn out right
D
Something's got to turn out right
G
If you want, then when we die
C
We'll ascend to some place way up high
Em
The gate will show you through
C
If they ask me, I'm with you
G
You're in my body
C
You're, you're in my body
Em
You're in my body
D
That's where I think about you

(second verse and chorus is the exact same thing
Em
Falling asleep, 
C
asleep at the wheel
Em
As I approach that cliff
C
I'm starting to feel
           Em
If you can wake me up, 
C
with only a touch
Em
If I can die with you, 
D
life would be enough

Cemetery

Am                 Em          
Let me tell you about the love I have
 C
Cause it's growing by the moment
 D
And I'd murder you to hold his hand
 Am              Em    
See I don't even know this boy
 C                     D
But I want him so bad, oh so bad
 Am                    Em
He's the singer of my favorite band
 C
If I cornered him and locked him in a closet
D
He would understand
Am                   Em
Take me away from my boring life
C              Dm
To his promised land

CHORUS:

 C              G      Am
And his song is stuck in my head
 C          G      D
His song is stuck in my head
 C          G      Am         
As long as he's not poor or dead
 D                            G
Then I always shall remember him

Am                 Em
He's not like the other guys I meet
          C
I'm sure he's always keen to listen
          D
And the words he sings so sweet
 Am                Em
Are like the bible not a fable
                    C           D
He'd be willing to beat my ex-boyfriend up

If they should ever meet
Am
And as I press repeat
Em
In the snow and sleet
C
I do a lap around his block
D
And as I swoon I'll keep
Am
My knife concealed
Em
'Til the dream is real
D
And we share a suburban street

CHORUS:
C              G      Am
And his song is stuck in my head
C              G      D
His song is stuck in my head
C              G      Am
And I'll chain him tight to my bed
D                          G
So I always shall remember him

  Am                        Em
Lately I've been wondering 'bout reverse psychology
  G                     D
And all the negative crap that it implies
Am                        Em
Like that I want what I want when I want it
 G                            Em
And not when it's glimmering before my eyes.
Am                        Em
Lately I've been wondering 'bout complex biology
G                     D
Like when a stork shows up on your roof
Am                        Em
To bring you a lovely love child
G                            Em
Bouncing boy to spell out the truth.

Chorus
C              G      Am
His song is stuck in my head
C              G      D
His song is stuck in my head
C              G      Am
I will fill his heart and soul with lead
D                           G
So I always shall remember him

C              G      Am
His song is stuck in my head
C              G      D
His song is stuck in my head
C              G      Am
He will take my fire and burn instead
D                           G
So I always shall remember him

I Love You More Than I Hate My Period

Em                                           C
let me guide you through the story of a boy and his curse
Em                     C                        G
tiny diamond in his stroller with his first step chasing the hearse
Em                               C
sipping at a cup that's half way filled
Em                         C                   G
But looking forward to the day he pays that drinking bill
Em                             C
there's no peace, there's no quiet on this earth
Em                     C                    G
he confided, nestled tightly in that womb beneath the dirt
Em                       C
hurt no more and when he turned twenty-four
Em                 C                    G
he wrote a note to nail to God's front door that said

Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Em
i want death
Am
death in the worst way
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am                  G
don't get me wrong, cause

Em
i love life
C
but life has a boyfriend
Em
bless my soul
Am
i'm out to destroy them
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Am       G
for my birthday

Em                                         C     
from the high paying job and the love of his life
Em                                C            G           
he rode a roller coaster ride of lust on their wedding night
Em                                C
they made a baby in unmentionable ways
Em                                C                  G
he was ungrateful as a man could be on that blessed day
Em                         C
and underneath he thought this is all a phase
Em                 C                 G
just a blip in the existence of a structure vast and great
Em                      C
pray each night to his cross of a charm
Em                    C                       G
for the one thing he couldn't afford just to buy the farm

Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday
Em
i want death
Am
death in the worst way
Em
i want death
C
death for my birthday

for my birthday
                                                 

   Am                     C           Em
i'll never lose another friend again
Am                                           C                                       
or watch them start a war that's fought for ideals that are dead
Am                       C
i'll never have an argument again
Am      Em
because my dust
Am         Em
will be your salt
Am          F           G
my blood will hydrate you off
C                 Am
my heart will be your meal
           F                              G
and I won't ride the cycle of the way it kills to think and feel

[play with palm-muting, or softer]

Em                        C
one sweet day his heart ceased to beat
Em                         Am
he fell so fast beneath all our feet
F                G
through bugs and snakes
Am                     C
last words he had to say 
      Em               C
were "help me claw my way to the surface
Em                           Am
oh sweet lord you know i deserve this
F                              G
just one more, just one more birthday..."

Death For My Birthday

Bb 
never thought that I could feel
                    Gm
such a slap in the face
                      Bb
since my semester in New York 
                 Gm
where I drank it away
                      Bb
social strategies are taught 
            Gm
to Bohemian crowds
                       Bb
and my love was like a food stamp 
           Gm
handing it out

             Bb
oh though I fell in love with you, all fey and grizzled and mature
              Gm
you left me naked, pining, whining on your bathroom floor
                   Bb
ff it makes you jealous, tell us just which boy we should adore
                  Gm
only talk about myself, so I don't mind that he's a bore

               Bb                  Gm                  D#  F
he's a like a less cute version of you, but he'll have to do
               Bb               Gm                  D#
he's like a Wal-Mart version of you, but he'll have to do
       F      Bb
he'll have to do

    Bb                          Gm
mountain man, brag about your band to me
            Bb                                Gm
you got me hot with all those snide remarks about my poetry
          Bb                     Gm
but he gobbles up every single line about the stars
              Bb                            Gm
and how they scar my slightly chubby arms like brightly lit cigars

    Bb         Gm                                 Bb
so now he's next to me but i can feel you in my heart
                     Gm
you're everything, you're everything he'll never be
        Bb                Gm          D#                    F
it's misery and more specifically, i miss that day you spit on me

               Bb                  Gm                  D#  F
he's a like a less cute version of you, but he'll have to do
               Bb               Gm                  D#
he's like a Wal-Mart version of you, but he'll have to do
       F      Bb
he'll have to do

               Bb                  Gm                  D#  F
he's a like a less cute version of you, but he'll have to do
               Bb               Gm                  D#
he's like a Wal-Mart version of you, but he'll have to do
       F      Bb
he'll have to do

Bb                    Gm
he's got no inkling of your status or mind
Bb                          Gm
he's just the glue that I splatter to bind
Bb                Gm
you and I like siamese twins
Bb            Gm            D#
so let this sick sad game begin

Bb                Gm                                  A#
now you're here again and he will wonder where I've been
                              Gm
i'm giving in but in my own opinion, it's how to be
              Bb
though I can hear him singing
 D#                 F               D#
all this envy's killing me, it's killing me

               Bb                  Gm                  D#  F
he's a like a less cute version of you, but he'll have to do
               Bb               Gm                  D#
he's like a Wal-Mart version of you, but he'll have to do
       F      Bb
he'll have to do

               Bb                  Gm                  D#  F
he's a like a less cute version of you, but he'll have to do
               Bb               Gm                  D#
he's like a Wal-Mart version of you, but he'll have to do

G
Life is not a spark in space,
              C
an episode of will and grace
Em 
controversial yet mundane,

Deborah's messing with your brain.
G                                        C
Even scientologists know there's more to all of this, 
Em                                                     C
search the ruins for trapped doors, wonder what you're put here for. 
Csus2                   Em                Am
Simple as a hint of gas climbing nostrils as you pass,
Csus2                         Em                 Am
making Harvard graduates feel childish when they laugh at it. 
Csus2                            Em            Am
Climb the rungs to kingdom come, sour patch to acid tongue, 
Csus2                              Em                 Am
are you opposed to having fun? You clench the world between your buns. 

Chorus 1:
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better,

you could be the greatest man in the world.

Verse 2:
G                                         C        Em
Your life is always the post of something else...
                                         C
Where is the present in the way that you present yourself? 
G                                       C     Em
And it's disgusting how little that you try, 
                               C
the existential equivalence of pink eye. 
Csus2                     Em               Am
Drink alone and watch TV, you're expecting harmony, 
Csus2                               Em             Am
statap your tune with silver spoons and the loving pending doom. 
Csus2                        Em                 Am
Guiding satan's steady hand, forcing Beatles to disband. 
Csus2                             Em                      Am  
It's ego freaks and drama queens, the young at heart know what I mean.

Do Better

E7
I used to have a heart worth a billion bucks
          C                    Asus2
Now it's shitty, shoddy cheap
E7
Sell it in my sleep for the fakes to eat
           C               Asus2           E7
While they kiss my ass and tell me what I need
                                  C                Asus2
Sex fiends with a vacant dream, a tattoo of a soul

And the words you said, still ringing in my head
        C                   Asus2 
Wonder where the love they stole is hiding

C             Em    G            D
All I want to do is be mended by you
          C            Em      G            D
I don't want to be confused, I just want to find you
C              Em      G                  D
All I want to kill is that which keeps me ill
      C            Em     G          D
Underwhelmed and unfulfilled

            Am
They're in denial of the knowledge 
              C                 D
That they're living in a lame excuse

              Am                                    C             D
They're in denial of the fact they're fed like the gorging of the truth
           Am                                 C               D   
It's not alright with me, the love I lack, I need, I want you back

   E7                                   
I used to know a girl with the deepest trust
       C                   Asus2
That a man could ever know
E7                                                               
Broke her neck from the lack of respect

That I learned as an embryo on the west coast

Where the dead paint Hollywood red

The facade is well-fed with the blood of the Capulets

Spread like jelly on bread across the doors of the first-borns

Wandering through the haze, your voice to lead the way

I Used To Have A Heart

In Defense Of The Genre

C                                G
Today I sat and smoked myself to cancer
                                 C
Thinking about the dancer at the bar
     F            G
Well how was I to know
      E7                   Am
That a crush could just implode
           F                            G
Til it became a grudge eclipsing every star
C                                    G
And yes I know my addictions run the gamut
                                       C
The drugs, the smokes, the booze, the 24
              F               G
But you can't make the turkey colder
  E7              Am
Or skew me less bipolar
       F                             G
Let me list the things about you I abhor
G
Horrible, you're
C        Am
So easy, talk sleazy
E7                            Am
You led me off the plank, and left me queasy
    F           G
And that is why
               C
You can't rock my world
C                                    G
You swore that you were taken when I met you
                                   C
But yes, You did undress me from afar
F             G
A gentle concubine
    E7                  Am
You skipped amongst the mines
       F                            G
Just a product of the endless empty grind
C                                      G
You lack the curve that prove a proper lady
                                      C
A slender slave, with sluttish sleepy eyes
       F            G
Though once I was emoting
E7             Am
And Bono-lyric quoting
       F                              G
I have found another; be my guest and die.
G
With starry eyes, she's
C              Am
Warm-glancing, entrancing
E7                                Am
And now I'm through with all your sick, sad ranting
    F          G
And that is why
               C
You can't rock my world
C
I've lost you...
Am
Now I glide through the silky sky
C
It's so blue
Am
You're just a muse, that is why
C
So screwed
Am
Cadaver gone blue, this has died
         C                 Am
Your machine is broken and green
          F                      C
And now I see right through your lies
     C           Am
with ripe wonder,

I plunder,
E7                          Am
the village now I know that I become her.
F               G
And That is why 

You can't rock my--
E7      Am
That is whyyy
F           G
That is why
                                         G     C
You'll never ever in a Goddamn millenium be my girl
      C                       Am
Watch frozen stars on the way home
        C                            Am
I watch frozen stars on the way back home
        C                       Am
I watch frozen stars on the way home
        C                                     Am
I watch frozen stars burn out on the way back home!

Anarchy, My Dear

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
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
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
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
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days

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.

when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E

because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot
