Your Guts I Hate Em

We're Not Happy 'til You're Not Happy

Intro: Am - F - C - G

Verse One:
Am            F
She called me late last night
   C                G
To say she loved me so
Am          F       C        G
  It didn't matter anymore,
Am           F
I'll say she never cared
     C               G
And that she never will
Am          F
I'd do it all again
  C                   G
I guess I'll have to wait until then

Chorus:
F     C
If I get drunk well
      G
I'll pass out on the floor now baby,
F          C           G
You won't bother me no more,
F           C
And if your drinkin' well
    G
You know that you're my friend, and I say
F             C            G
I think I'll have myself a beer.

Verse 2:
Am              F
She called me late last night
    C                G
To say she loved me, so
Am     F                      C         G
But I guess he changed her mind.
Am         F                  C            G
Well I should have known it wouldn't be all right
Am            F        
But I can't live without her
   C             G
So I won't even try...

Chorus:
F     C
If I get drunk well
      G
I'll pass out on the floor now baby,
F          C           G
You won't bother me no more,
F           C
And if your drinkin' well
    G
You know that you're my friend, and I say
F             C            G
I think I'll have myself a beer.


Verse Three:
Am    F              C                  G
Maybe some day, I'll think of what to say
Am     F              C                G
Maybe next time I'll remember what to do!
Am              F        C            G
She looks like heaven, maybe this is hell,
Am                F
Said she'd do it all again
     C               G
She promised not to tell!

Chorus:
F     C
If I get drunk well
      G
I'll pass out on the floor now baby,
F          C           G
You won't bother me no more,
F           C
And if your drinkin' well
    G
You know that you're my friend, and I say
F             C            G
I think I'll have myself a beer.

She's the cutest little girl that I've ever seen

Maybe she'll like me if I play the guitar

Good Thing

Intro

[F][Am][Bb][C] (2x)

-Verse-
F                                A
If I had a dollar bill for every time I've been wrong
    Bb                             C
I'd be a self-made millionaire and you'd still be gone 
   F                               A
So hand me down my dress shoes and my best dress shirt 
          Bb                     C
Cause I'm going down in style to cover the hurt.

[F Fm] (2x)

F                          A
All i wanna do all day is spend it in bed 
          Bb                         C
but that's bad for the body and even worse for my head 
   F                                           A
So I'll try and find a place where no one will ask me a thing 
        Bb                    C
It will help me to forget and help me to say 

-Chorus-
F                   Eb
Cause now I'm drunk again 
              Bb
A means to my end 
        Db        C
And I'm scared of myself 
      F                Eb
Cause now it's all the same, 
               Bb
The places and names 
        Db          C
And I'm scared of myself again. 

[F Fm] (2x)

-Verse-
F                                    A
Have you ever wanted to wake up from your dreaming 
   Bb                                              C
It scared you so bad you couldn't you control your heart or your breathing. 
     F                                          A
Well walk out the door with me on the floor You don't care how i'm feeling 
  Bb                                           C
I guess a weak and tired and frightened man is no longer appealing. 

-Chorus-
F                   Eb
Cause now I'm drunk again 
              Bb
A means to my end 
        Db        C
And I'm scared of myself 
      F                Eb
Cause now it's all the same, 
               Bb
The places and names 
        Db          C
And I'm scared of myself again. 

[F Fm] (2x)

-Bridge-

Am                                        Gbm (or F#m)
Some people have a gift of reaching right into your soul 
F                    E
And finding the hole and making it bigger 
Am                                               Gbm
There are sometimes I think I catch you cracking cynical smiles 
F                                  E
And in a short while, you'll be my hearts grave digger. 
Dm                 E
  Well there's not much I can do 
Dm                 E
  Cause I'm at the mercy of you 
Dm          E
  So baby I guess we're through oh 

-Outro-
F                   Eb
Cause now I'm drunk again 
              Bb
A means to my end 
        Db        C
And I'm scared of myself 
      F                Eb
Cause now it's all the same, 
               Bb
The places and names 
        Db          C
And I'm scared of myself again. 

   F                Ebm
So go, walk out the door 
                     Bb
You don't need me no more 
        Db          C
And I'm scared of myself

F      A Bb C
Again. 

F                                A
If I had a dollar bill for every time I'd been wrong
    Bb                               C
I'd be a self-made millionaire and I wouldn't be singing.

The Best Of Us For The Rest Of Us

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

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.

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
