E
have you ever had a dream

that your favorite baby's drowning?
         F
and you grab him by his sweater sleeve and pull him up on to the ground and
 E
you can hear the water slosh around inside his tiny gut
  F
push his belly up and down but he can't cough the water up
  E                                                                F
suddenly a flood comes out his mouth till there is nothing left inside of him,

he's empty now

there isn't even one small breath

----

    F        G            C
and he goes limp in your arms
 F                 G
all the people's mouths are moving 
 C
all you hear are car alarms
        F    G               C
and you wake up and start to cry
F                G           C
I will lose my shit if even one more person I know dies,
     F     G     C
so please don't die.

F                          C
My mom's sick she's in a hospital bed
F                             C
I've got a word for all you ghosts in her head
     F                    C
and all you skeletons in her closet
F
leave her alone
C
leave her alone
F                  C
leave her alone, please

         F       G        C
because my mom needs you gone
 F       G        C
my mom needs you gone
     F               G      C

you traded all your paper clips for a soap dish that way
      G                                    C
your best friend's rubber ducky wouldn't slip and slide away
        G                            C                       G
but he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box to place your paper clips in
                    G7
Mr. Hooper came to say,
  
  F      G             C
"Oh, my dear friends, Bert and Ernie,
  F               G            C
here's a little something for each of you from me
 F              G               C
here are your paper clips and here's your rubber ducky
F                         G           G7   [let ring]
how could I ignore such selfless generosity?"

      F                      C
the human body's made up of good and bad bacteria
          F                                       C
but the antibiotics and the antibacterials are killing all the good ones
         F                               C
and the bad ones just get stronger and become super infections
       F                               C
it's harder to destroy them and it's harder to detect them
               F               C
and there's something in her blood
               F              C
and there's something in her leg
               F               C       G
and there's something in her brain

Whole Song: C, G, F, C


C              G                F          C
I was always strong as long as we were a team
C              G                F          C
I crawled into somebody's heart who meant the world to me
C              G                F          C
love made me strong enough to be alone and set me free
C              G                F          C
but with my friends friends to the end is where I wanna be
C              G                F          C
with my friends friends to the end is where I wanna be

C
I don't need to
        G
but I want to
        F
sing with you
        C
'cause I miss you
C
I don't need to
       G
but I want to
        F
sing with you
C
'cause I miss you

I Miss You

C                                    G
My head is pounding, I can't stop the pounding

Am                           F
I think it is going to explode

C                              G
And kill everybody who's in close proximity

Am                              F
To the place I call my home

C                                           G
And they'll make a moving made for tv movie

Am                                   F
For lifetime all about my life

C                                            G
That ends with an epitaph, one that will make you laugh

Am                                          F
That says "great mom, okay wife"

C                                         G
And it'll be funny to the people who know me

Am                                        F
Who know if my body's not burned

C                                   G
My soul will spend an eternity in misery

Am                                        F
Tethered and bound to this earth

C                                  G
So I'm not a dick or a stick in the mud

Am                                         F
Always ruining things for my friends

C                                    G
I mustn't forget when I see the sun set

Am                                   F
That tomorrow it will rise again 

C               G                       Am     F
So I tattoo instructions on my ass

C                                G         An             F
That say "don't ever put this body in a casket

C                G                  Am   F
Burn it and put the ashes in a basket

C                      G          Am             F
And throw them in the puget sound"

C                 G            Am         F
I don't ever want to be underground

C         G               Am     F
Oh no, oh no 

I'm wearing size thirteen basketball shoes
And lavender fishnets, I'm freaked out and fucked up
And I'm standing alone in an alley with you
Wanting to show you a cure for your hiccups
But instead I close my eyes
The needles are numbered so I'm writing you letters
And I cannot disguise
The fact that I'm nervous when we are together
And so I fantasize
That the nights'll get shorter and the days will get better
I feel a kick inside, inside
If this is a girl, I'm naming her heather
She'll look just like you, but her hair will be feathered
She'll say how you died before you ever met her 

Her hair will be feathered

My head is pounding, I can't stop the pounding
I think it is going to explode
There are plus and minuses to sinusitis
Like sometimes I get to go home
But mostly it hurts so bad I think I'm dying
I just blew my nose and now I feel like crying
And the dreams I have are all of my past lives
And the seizures would paralyse me in the night
And I'd wake up clutching my teddy bear tight
And I'm drooling and trying to turn on the light
All I can do is hold fast and sit tight
But what if they forget? cause you know they just might 

So I tattoo instructions on my ass
That say don't ever put this body in a casket
Burn it and put the ashes in a basket
And throw them in the puget sound
I don't ever want to be underground

Oh no, oh no

Underground

A          E            G              A
I never wanted to be better than my friends
A                        E          G          A      (this just repeats)
I just wanted to prove wrong the people in my head
the ones who told me I'd be better of dead
the ones who told me that I would never win
when I delivered newspapers they said I was too slow
when I was a barista they said I made lousy foam
when I worked in retail they said I was a slob
much too dumb for school and much too lazy for a job

so I rode my bike like lightning
and I made cappuccinos that would make the angels sing
took two showers a day and I dressed up like a princess
shook my fist in my own face and said I'll show you who's the best
I wrote the kinds of papers teachers hang up on their walls
I was employee of the month at seven different shopping malls
and one time playing football I pulled the tendons in my leg
to prove that I was tough I hopped on one foot
and finished up the game

I thought if I succeeded I'd be happy and they'd go away
but first thing in the morning I'd still wake up and I'd hear them say
"you're fat, ugly, and stupid, you should really be ashamed
no one will ever like you you're not good at anything"

and sometimes I'd rise to the challenge
but other times I'd feel so bad that I could not get out of bed
and on the days I stayed in bed I sang and sang and sang
about how crappy I felt no realizing how many other people would relate
now people send me emails that say thanks for saying the things they didn't know how to say
and the people in my head still visit me sometimes
and they bring all of their friends but I don't mind

I play my guitar like lightning
when I sing I like it when you sing too loud and clear
different voices different tones all sayin' "yeah, we're not alone"
I got good at feeling bad and that's why I'm still here
I got good at feeling bad and that's why I'm still here
I got good at feeling bad and that's why I'm still here

The Competition

G                C               G               C
When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
G             C                    G           C
Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
G                  C                 G              C
And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
G                        C             G              C
In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me

But it's only really scary cause it makes me feel serene
In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been
So grounded, and so humbled, and so one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

Rock and roll is fun but if you ever hear someone
Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky
Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

G                C              G                C
When I saw Genevi?ve I really liked it when she said
G          C            G              C             
 G
What she said about the giant and the lemmings on the cliff
G         G   C   G
She said 'I like giants
G       C          G
Especially girl giants
G            C           G         G
Cause all girls feel too big sometimes
G           C        G
Regardless of their size'

When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes
And I'm smaller than a poppyseed inside a great big bowl
And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole

(...)

Loose Lips might sink ships but loose gooses take trips


to san francisco, double dutch disco,
tech tv hottie, do it for scotty
do it for the living and do it for the dead
do it for the monsters under your bed
do it for the teenagers and do it for your mom
broken hearts hurt but they make us strong and

we won't stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we'll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened

we won't stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we'll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened

we're just dancing, we're just hugging,
singing, screaming, kissing, tugging
on the sleeve of how it used to be
how's it gonna be?
i'll drop kick russell stover, move into the starting over house
and know matt rouse and jest are watching me achieve my dreams

and we'll pray, all damn day, every day,
that all this shit our president has got us in will go away
while we strive to figure out a way we can survive
these trying times without losing our minds

so if you wanna burn yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
and if you wanna cut yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
and if you wanna kill yourself remember that I LOVE YOU
call me up before your dead, we can make some plans instead
send me an IM, i'll be your friend

shysters live from scheme to scheme and my 4th quarter pipe dreams
are seeming more and more worth fighting for
so i'll curate some situations, make my job a big vacation
and i'll say FUCK BUSH AND FUCK THIS WAR
my war paint is sharpie ink and i'll show you how much my shit stinks
and ask you what you think because your thoughts and words are powerful
they think we're disposable, well both my thumbs opposable
are spelled out on a double word and triple letter score

we won't stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we'll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened

we won't stop until somebody calls the cops
and even then we'll start again and just pretend that
nothing ever happened

to deliver a painting for some silly reason
I took a wrong turn and ended up in Michigan

the sound of our voices made us forget everything

that's hardly time to take a shower
hug my family and take your picture off the wall
check my email write a song and make a few phone calls

I've got one hand on the steering wheel
one waving out the window
if I'm a spinster for the rest of my life
my arms will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights

I wonder if you've ever seen

the way the man in the look out house looks at me

Before he takes out his teeth

And asks me to sign the wall

dipped in green Listerine and then I kiss him on the head

There is scary topiary to the left of the pool

The trail to the right goes back to middle school

I'm trying to read what the flashing red letters say.

Will You Be Me?

My Cute Fiend Sweet Princess

C 
I had a show a few weeks ago
F                          G 
it's getting harder and harder to sing
C 
and it is hard to focus on my guitar
F                   G         
playing when inside a baby is
C
kicking

C 
At first I was sad and scared
F                   G 
cause this is all I know how to do
C 
then John and Peter played standing up
F                                    G                     C
sometimes something will change and that change will change you.

C 
Then I thought back to six years ago
F                  G 
when Brian Pilkton told me to play
C 
he gave me a car, a typewriter, a guitar
F                       G    
before that all I could do was 
C
count days.

C 
Then I thought back to before my coma
F                    G 
rehab in Tacoma, my junkie roommates
C 
all that I knew how to do was put cigarettes 
F                  G                
out on my self, I took pills and I
C
Drank.

C 
And I thought back to when I was 15
F                               G 
how I was squeaky clean, and I wanted to die
C 
I was feeding the homeless while combating loneliness
F                             G 
all that I could do was keep living a lie.

C 
Then I think back to that 12 year old poet
F                               G 
how she didn't know it was what she would be
C 
all she could do was hide under her bed
F                G           
scared to death that somebody might
C
Read her diary

C 
See I have changed and I'll keep on changing
F                         G 
and maybe my songwriting will suffer
C 
but its okay if at the end of the day
F                         G        
all i can do next is just be a good
C
other
C 
its okay if at the end of the day 
F                   G         
all i can do next is be a good
C
mother.

Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)


Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

             F                 C                 G

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
