Verse 1:
C#5                    A5             B5          
There's comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool 
E                      A5
I'm holding my breath for you 
C#5                                     A5                B5       
There's no doubt in my mind that if you could then you would try 
E                            A5
To crack my ribcage open and pull my heart right through 

Interlude: C#5, A5, B5 (x3)

C#5                    A5             B5          
There's comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool 
E                     A5
I'm holding my breath for you 
C#5                                     A5                B5       E
There's no doubt in my mind that if you could then you would try 
                         A5
To crack my ribcage open and pull my heart right through 


Chorus:
F#5                    G#5        A5          E5
But I'm a creature of a culture that I create 
F#5                     G#5     A5
I'm the last one on the dance floor 
E5
As the chandelier gives way 
         F#5
And I am permanently 
  G#5                 A5
Preoccupied with your past 
      F#5         G#5     A5    E5 
I've been around long enough now 

To know that the good things never last 
                (C#5)
They never last. 
                   (Last)
Interlude: C#5, A5, B5   (x2)

Verse 2:
C#5                    A5             B5           
There's comfort in the silence of a living room 
E              A5
The TV is on for you 
C#5                      A5              B5
Hide in your basement while your house burns down 
(No Chords)
Your teeth are loose inside of your gums 
(No Chords)
They will eventually fall out 
C#5          A5      B5                    E           A5
Follow an orange extension cord under a carpet, to a closet door 
            C#5                      A5         B5
Feeding the black light that will someday make me very, very, very, very, 
      A5
very rich. 


Chorus:
F#5                      G#5        A5          E5

I've been around long enough now 
   A5                   E        
To know that the good things never last 
                (C#5)
They never last. 
 

Interlude: E*, Eb*, C#5, B5 (x2)


Bridge:
E*            Eb*        C#5
How low is your self esteem 
    B5                E*       C#5
And how low could it possibly be? 
   E*                 Eb* 
I know, I know you're in love with me 
     C#5              B5
And I've been ignoring you 


Interlude: B5, C#5, Eb5, E5 (Repeat)


Outro:
           B5     C#5       Eb5        E5
I will stop cutting my pants into shorts 
    B5        C#5           Eb5         E5 
I will address the issues I cannot ignore 
       B5          C#5           Eb5         E5 
And I will do the things I think you might like 
           B5   C#5      Eb5         E5 
And I will be alone probably the rest of my life 
       C#5                                A5
There's comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool.

Swimming Pool

Verse 1:
            F5                         Bb5
I have this dream that I am hitting my dad with a baseball bat
          C5                           Bb5
And he is screaming and crying for help
          F5                     Bb5
And maybe halfway through it has more to do with me killing him
        C5                    Bb5
Then it ever did protecting myself
      F5                                      Bb5
And I believe that yeah, dad, maybe no one is perfect
      C5                                 Bb5
But I believe that you were pushing your luck
        F5
It just sucks it played out like this
  Bb5                        C5                 Bb5
A terrible movie none of the actors even give a fuck

Pre-chorus:
             D5               C5
But you look good tonight girlfriend,
                     Bb5
Can I sleep in your bed?
           D5               C5
And when I crawl out in the morning,
      F5               Bb5   C5
Can I stay inside your head?
 
Chorus:
                Bb5    C5  D5
'Cause you were high school
    F5*                       Bb5*
And I was just more like real life
             Bb5   C5        D5
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
    F5*                      Bb5*
But I was just more like his wife
           Bb5  C5
And it was okay
              D5
I'll wear the makeup
            F5*               Bb5*
I'll do whatever he wants all night
                Bb5  C5     D5
'Cause you were okay   as a girlfriend
    F5*                      Bb5*
But I was just more like his wife.

Verse 2:
        F5
A long, long, long, long, long, long, long time ago 
                        Bb5
my great, great, great, great grandfather

took something that did not belong to him
            C5
And that is why today I have an eagle in my veins
    Bb5
I am   part Native American
         F5
And I am leaving as soon as I come,
                          Bb5
As soon as I come you will probably forget my name
         C5                                               Bb5
I hope I fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car on the ride home

Pre-chorus:
             D5               C5
But you look good tonight girlfriend,
                     Bb5
Can I sleep in your bed?
           D5               C5
And when I crawl out in the morning,
      F5               Bb5   C5
Can I stay inside your head?
 
Chorus:
                Bb5    C5  D5
'Cause you were high school
    F5*                       Bb5*
And I was just more like real life
             Bb5   C5        D5
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
    F5*                      Bb5*
But I was just more like his wife
           Bb5  C5
And it was okay
              D5
I'll wear the makeup
            F5*               Bb5*
I'll do whatever he wants all night
                Bb5  C5     D5
'Cause you were okay   as a girlfriend
    F5*                       Bb5*
But I was just more like real life.
               F5
More like real life!

But first I am digging myself out of this hole
             Em                 D                    C

I'm gonna light them up when I get home to Jersey

They'll probably arrest me

It'll probably ruin my whole summer

The door sounded, when she shut it,

As if she didn't really have to leave
           G          D
She just needed a separator

She needed something in between

 My friends are happy, I am happy, I have learned to adapt

[Verse 1]
G                                                             Bm  C   G
There is a map in my room on the wall of my room and I've got big big plans.
(G)                                                                         Bm     C         G
And I can see them slipping through almost feel them slipping through the palms of my sweaty hands.
           Am      G5                 Bm           C                     G
And I move slow,      just slow enough to make you uncomfortable.



[Verse 2]
(G)                                    
You say I hate you you mean it and I love you sounds fake
           Bm            C           G
It's taken me so long to figure that out.
(G)
I used to love the taste I would do anything for it.
               Bm                  C            G          
Now I would do anything to get the taste out of my mouth.
              Am        G5                 Bm             C         
And you're so confident     but I hear you crying in your sleeping bag.



[Chorus]
                F   Em      G 
But you were broken bad yourself
                   F   Em      G 
and you were mad as hell   you felt
                    F   Em      G 
If you had done anything with anyone else 
                         F   Em      G 
it would have worked out so   well.

               C
But you are an artist and your mind don't work the way you want it to.
                  (G)                                         G
One day you'll be washing yourself with hand soap in a public bathroom.
              F
And you'll be thinking how did I get here? Where the hell am I?
                               (G)
If the roles were reversed you could have seen me sneaking up, sneaking up from behind.

[Verse 2] 
               G
She sees these visions, she feels emotion.
             Bm        C              G
She says that I cannot go she sees my plane in the ocean.
(G)
And what about your friends don't you love them enough to stay.
         Bm          C                     G
And I say if I don't leave now then I will never get away.
                 Am          G5            Bm          C
Let me be a blue raft on the blue sea I'll blend right in.

               E      A    B
I don't see me mad at situations,
        E         A     B
I see me turn and walk away
        E      A     B
I see a tattoo on my right thigh that I will 
E                   A(hi)
probably regret one day
             E                   A(hi)
Yeah, I will probably regret one day
              
              E     A     B
But now, I am happy to be bonding in a
E       A       B
kitchen with my friends
           E         A        B
A spool of thread, a few more good vibes,
         E                   A(hi)
A safety pin and a ballpoint pen
         E                   A(hi)

And there is nothing wrong with my lifestyle

               E       A       B               
One day I will realize I don't need this
              E        A     B
because it is just not who I am
           E               A       B
Until that day comes, I'll keep my eyes closed,
           E                        A(hi)
and I will try to feel all of the effects
             E                        A(hi)
Yeah, I will try to feel all of the effects

And now I am talking way too fast
             E      A      B
a little bit louder than I should,
              E             A    B         
Trying to say thank you for understanding 
               E         A             B
my side of the story the best that you could
               E                       A(hi)
My side of the story the best that you could
               E                       A(hi)

Au Revoir

Intro: G A C D
 
           G                 A
You are my peach, you are my plum
           C                 D
You are my earth, you are my sun
            G                    A
I love your fingers, I love your toes
                 C                     D
The back of your head, the tip of your nose
 
 
    C                      A                     G                D
And you are the reason I'm smiling when there is nothing to smile about
      C                      A                     G                D
Yeah, you are the reason I'm smiling when there is nothing to smile about
 
 
                 E                     A                 C
One day you will find someone who will love you like you deserve
                    E                     A                        C
But tonight I'm the only one left and I'm betting it's a fact that you will never learn
               E    A                   C 
Once I sink my teeth, your skin's not so tough
             B    C                  B      C
I'll leave a tiny cut, there'll be a lot of blood
             B       C                A                  C
But once you wipe it up you will feel better about our entire situation
 
Interlude: G A C D
 
           G                 A
You are my light, no need to hide
           C                 D
You are my clock, keep me on time
           G                 A
You are my angel, you are my crime
                C                    D
I'll serve this sentence the rest of my life
 
 
    C                      A                     G                 D
And you are the reason I'm smiling when there is nothing to smile about
      C                      A                     G                 D
Yeah, you are the reason I'm smiling when there is nothing to smile about
            E    A               C
I do things wrong, you thought I might
                  E                 A                          C
You say I'm gonna miss you when you leave and you are probably right
                E     A               C
But I'm just as stoned, I don't wanna fight
                 B              C                         B              C
You say I should think before I talk, you say I shouldn't think about my life
             B               C                   B                C
Cause once I finally hit the ground, who's gonna drag me into the light?
             A           C             E        D
It's just so hard to see tomorrow past tonight, woah
             A           C             E        D
It's just so hard to see tomorrow past tonight, woah

        F#                        Db
Sometimes you get sad when we're together
                       Abm                                  B
Because you're not sure if you'll miss me when I'm gone
                    F#                       Db            
Just try to appreciate what you got while you got it
          Abm                                            B
So if it ever goes away, you can say you enjoyed it while it lasted
                  Abm                                        Db 
Sometimes I don't feel like singing, I don't really like these songs
                  Abm                                   Db             B
Sometimes I don't feel like dancing, DJ please don't turn the beat on
             Ebm                     Db                              F#     B
Let's keep it quiet, keep me honest, and keep me true (ooh ooh ohh)
                  Ebm                Db                       F#            B
Keep me in love; keep me believing it's with you  (ooh ooh ohh, ooh ooh ohh
       Db       
ooh ohh ohh, ooh ooh ohh)

      F#                              B                    Abm                 Db    
But who's gonna push my wheelchair around when I get sick?
         F#                             B                    Abm                 Db    
God forbid I ever stop feeling sorry for myself, for being selfish
         F#                             B                    Abm                 Db    
This is not the way I plan on living for the rest of my life
         F#                             B                    Abm                 Db

F# B Abm Db

F# Db Abm B
                        F# 
It's reached the point in the night where I need to decide
                     Db
Whether I'm gonna fall asleep or watch the sunrise
         Abm
We are both into letting this develop
            B
But the thought of starting over always sounded much better
        F#
But I won't stop this, and you won't stop this
       Db
It'll probably go further than either of us wants it
     Abm
It all comes down to the fact that I don't care to
                B
Sacrifice a good time 'cause someone says I have to
                Abm                   Db
Next thing I know, I am removing all my clothes
                  Abm                                                       Db       B
And you are dancing around the room to some song on the radio
               Ebm             Db                                            F#            B
You say I deserve it, what is coming, the good and the bad bad, bad bad
          Ebm                  Db                          F#               
I don't regret it, how could i? You were the best I ever had
B                         Db                          
I ever had, I ever had, I ever had, I ever

      F#                              B                    Abm                 Db    
But who's gonna push my wheelchair around when I get sick?
         F#                             B                    Abm                Db    
God forbid I ever stop feeling sorry for myself, for being selfish

This is not the way I plan on living for the rest of my life

Everything I Own

[Verse]

         B  F#         C#m    G#m

I was so bored before I met you
           E      B         F#  

But then I met you and everything changed
           B   F#            C#m   G#m

And now it seems I could be amused 
                E                  F#

at the littlest things if I told my truth

[Chorus]

         C#m             B

She says you, you should admit it
         G#m           F#

She know I, I probably won't
     C#m                B

That he's the sound you want now
    G#m                    F#

And I'm just the noise you don't
             E

And I'm just saying it's a bummer, man
    F#

I'm sorry for interrupting
N.C.

I guess I'll go
 
[Verse]

            B  F#           C#m   G#m

You were my girl you were my baby
            E                         B            F#

You were my homemade mashed potatoes, biscuits, and gravy
             B   F#              C#m    G#m

You were too good, I should have known
           E                    F#

You were a prize my hands could never hold


[Chorus]

         C#m             B

She says you, you should admit it
         G#m           F#

She know I, I probably won't

I guess I'll go

              E                      B                  F#      E

And she says "tell me what I need to hear, what I wanna hear or else"
           E                  B       

I call her baby, I ask her to sit down,
           F#                       E

Ask her to sit down and allow me to try to explain myself

[Chorus]

B

She says you, you, you
                    E

You should probably admit it, probably admit it, probably
    F#                            E

but I, I, I, I, I probably won't, probably won't, probably won't, probably
     B                              E

That he, he, he, he's the sound you want now, the sound you want now, sound
    F#                      E

And I, I, I, I'm the noise you don't, the noise you don't, noise
B                          E

I, I, I, I should probably admit it, probably admit it, probably
    F#                     E

but I, I, I, I, I probably won't, probably won't, probably
     B                    E

That he, he, he, he's the sound you want now, the sound you want now, sound
    F#               E

And I, I, I, I'm the noise you don't, the noise you don't


[Outro]

B

And I'm just saying it's a bummer, man
F#                        

I'm sorry for interrupting, I guess I'll go.

The Feud

[Verse]
    C                    Am            Em            F
The good thing about this cast is I can still hold a knife
          C            Am                Em                F          
So if you ever twist my arm again I'll be sure to put up a fight
          C               Am                 Em             F
You see I just don't wanna do the things that you want me to do
          C            Am                Em                 F
But I'm a sucker, so I do them cause I am still in love with you

[Pre-Chorus]
         F              G         Am      F          G       Am
She said "Honey, y'gotta learn that love is simple just like mud.
                F                       G       Am      F       G
If you play the dirt, then I'll play the water. All we gotta do is touch"

[Chorus]
            C                Em               G           D 
Cause I was young, I thought I didn't have to care about anything
      C               Em        G       D
But I'm older now and know that I should
            C                Em               G          D
Cause I was young, I thought I didn't have to care about anything
    C                Em           G      D
But I'm older now and know that I should

[Verse]
       C                 Am            Em            F
It is freezing and I am watching you shovel snow 
      C                Am            Em            F
Off a driveway across from my parent's home
         C                    Am            Em            F
Now it's summer (now it's summer) and you are laying out on your lawn
            C                 Am            Em            F
You look so sexy, Chelsea, with your polka dot bikini on

[Pre-Chorus]
          F                     G        
Come on, Chelsea, speak a little French to me
Am              F                           G
Heard you spent two whole semesters drinking wine
        Am           F                         G
While I was stuck in Jersey trying to save some money
  Am              F               G
I guess I'm just another thing you left behind

[Chorus]
             C                Em               G           D 
But you were young, you thought you didn't have to care about anyone
     C                Em               G           D 
But you're older now and wish that you could
             C                Em               G           D 
But you were young, you thought you didn't have to care about anyone
     C                Em               G           
But you're older now and wish that you could

[Bridge 1]
                      C
It's funny you should ask
Em                F     G
   Cause I don't remember
                      C
It's funny you should ask
Em                F       G
   I coulda been a contender

[Bridge 2]
      Bm    C         Am   
1, 2, 3! Everyone say cheese!
G                  Bm               C           Am           G        
Thought you got the best of me turns out it was a video
          C                      Am
Me and my best friend, me and my cousins
              G                        F
Sitting there smiling turns out it was a video

[Chorus]
             C                Em               G           D 
But I was young, I thought I didn't have to care about anyone

But I'm older now and know that I should

My brother's friend explains to me with breathless words and bloody knees
                  G                   C
It's a black eyed trust, respect with pain.

             G                C           F              Am

Look at our plans, try to understand what could have happened to all of them.

To all of them.

I would sleep better on your floor
             Bb 
than I would ever in my bed
            Dm
And if your carpet makes my face itch
               C
It'd still be heaven in my head

             F
I would play more than four chords
          Bb
If it's a song that you might like
      Dm
But I am not very good
           C
So I would practice every night

And she said, "Sometimes, things just don't work out the way you want them to,

Sometimes things just don't work out the way they should flow through,

I would stop doing all those things

the doctor tells me not to do

But I don't think he understands, 
         C
I do all of these things for you

                    F
And you've got gold plastic on your shelf

that they gave to everybody else

And you can say it says your name

Intro: Bb F Eb [x4]

      Bb             F
I got boulders on my shoulders
       Eb
Collar bones begin to crack
         Bb          F                   Eb             
There is very little left of me and it's never coming back
          Bb                 F
There are certain things you ask of me
              Eb
And there are certain things I lack
       Bb              F
The beginning, we were winning
        Eb
Now I'm just making up facts

          G         D
What's it matter anymore?
      Eb
You believe the lies I tell
           G              D         
There's no meaning to the words
       Eb
But we still sing these songs well
          G           D
And if we all left it alone
                 Eb
I'm sure it'll work itself out fine
        G                D
We keep playing with the numbers
        Eb
We are running out of time
We are running
We are running

             G                    Eb
But you're a killer and I'm your best friend
             C
I think it's unfair, your situation
             G
You say I'm changing,
               Eb
Sorry I didn't know I had to stay the same
       C
Could we talk about this later?
                               Bb
Your voice is driving me insane

F Eb
Bb F Eb

       Bb               F              Eb
Well I try to write you poems, but the words they don't make sense
        Bb                F               Eb
My hand tries to grip the pencil, but the fingers are too tense
      Bb            F             Eb
And I try to show emotion, but my eyes won't seem to wet
         Bb               F                      Eb
And I'd love to tell you stories, but I can't remember how they went

         G               D                 Eb
You're a flashlight in a dark room for the loneliest black out
         G           D             Eb
You were all we had left after it all was filtered out
         G        D                 Eb
Turn you on in a dark room right before we both pass out
         G         D                 Eb
Turn you on when I need you, but the batteries ran out
They ran out

         G                   Eb
You're a werewolf and I'm a full moon

My head even with your hips, I hug your knees.

Who's to blame, I don't know. I feel no responsibility.

Feel most complete when we're asleep

I would've woke you up

At that point of the night, usually

Of the night, usually

Why'd you, see you could lie

This has nothing to do with you it's me vs me

I designed this world, custom t-shirts, and everything

Maybe if I was on tour

Maybe if I was with the boys

Going Grey

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#

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:

Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

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:

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.
