biting my clothes to keep from screaming
D
taking pills to keep from dreaming
G                                 F#m
I want to break something important
G                           F#m
I want to kick my dad in the shins

D
I was referring to the present in past tense
D
it was the only way that I could survive it
G                              F#m
I want to close my head in the car door
G                            F#m
I want to sing this song like I'm dying

[Chorus]

D
stay inside all this winter
D
filling out forms from a working printer
G                           F#m
I want to talk like Raymond Carver

I want to turn down the goddamn tv

D
binging on the latest sitcom

Something Soon

D      Dmaj7           Em
In the back-seat of my heart.
D   Dmaj7              Em    G
My love tells me I'm a mess.
D         Dmaj7           Em
I couldn't get the car to start.
D        Dmaj7                  Em    G
I left my keys somewhere in the mess.

D            Dmaj7    Em                               G
It comes and goes in plateaus, one month later I'm a fucking pro.
D                   Dmaj7    Em    
My parents would be proud
G       D              Dmaj7              Em
Oh, fall asleep on the floor, forget what happened in the morning
G         D                Dmaj7                Em
There are notes in your handwriting, so you can make it out


Chorus:
G5           D5
We are not a proud race
A5                 F#5
It's not a race at all
           E5
We're just trying
         D5            A5
I'm only trying to get home
A5
Drunk drivers, drunk drivers.
G5            D5
This is not a good thing
  A5                F#5
I don't mean to rationalise
   E5                 D5
Or try and explain it away
          A5
It's not okay
A5
Drunk drivers, drunk drivers


Verse:
D       Dmaj7           Em9
Its too late to articulate it
   D        Dmaj7   Em9    G
That empty feeling
    D            Dmaj7        Em9
We share the same fate as the people you hate
D              Dmaj7                   Em9
You built yourself up against others feelings
                 G        D  
Then it left you feeling empty
     Dmaj7              Em9
As a car coasting down hill
                      G
I have become such a negative person
D                  Dmaj7
It was all just an act
               Em9                  G
It was all so easily stripped away
D                               Dmaj7
But if we learn how to live like this
             Em9                       G
Maybe we can learn how to start again
       D                        Dmaj7
Like a child who has never done wrong
           Em9
Who hasn't taken that first step


Chorus:
G5           D5
We are not a proud race
A5                 F#5
It's not a race at all
           E5
We're just trying
         D5            A5
I'm only trying to get home
A5
Drunk drivers, drunk drivers.
G5             D5
Put it out of your mind
A5              F#5
And perish the thought
           E5             D5
There's no comfort in responsibility
A5
Drunk drivers, drunk drivers.

G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
It doesn't have to be like this
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
Killer whales, killer whales
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
It doesn't have to be like this
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
Killer whales, killer whales

G5                D5
Is that voice in your head
   A5             F#5 
Giving you shit again?
                 E5
But you know he loves you
                D5                A5 
and he doesn't mean to cause you pain
G5              D5
Please listen to him
A5             F#5
It's not too late
              E5
Turn off the engine
               D5                   A5
Get out of the car and start to walk
A5
Drunk drivers, drunk drivers, drunk drivers, drunk drivers

G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
It doesn't have to be like this
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
Killer whales, killer whales
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
It doesn't have to be like this
G                  D
It doesn't have to be like this
A                  Em
Killer whales, killer whales

Drunk Drivers/killer Whales

E              D
I'm so sick of fill in the blank
E                           D
Accomplish more, accomplish nothing
E                        D
If I were split in two I would just take my fist
E                              D
So I could beat up the rest of me

            A
You have no right to be depressed
                  D
You haven't tried hard enough to like it
        A
Haven't seen enough of this world yet
       D
But it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
               A
Well stop your whining, try again
       D
No one wants to cause you pain
             A
They're just trying to let some air in
        D                     C#m
But you hold your breath, you hold your breath, you hold it
E                 F#m
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it

E                          D
I've known for a long time I'm not getting what I want out of people
E                      D
It took me a long time to figure out I don't know what I want
E                                                          D
So you'll ask why and there will be no answer, then you'll ask for how long and there will be no answer
E                                                              D
Then you'll ask what can I do and there will be no answer, and eventually you will shut up

            A
You have no right to be depressed
                  D
You haven't tried hard enough to like it
        A
Haven't seen enough of this world yet
       D
But it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
               A
Well stop your whining, try again
       D
No one wants to cause you pain
             A
They're just trying to let some air in
        D                     C#m
But you hold your breath, you hold your breath, you hold it
E                 F#m
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it

      Bm             C#m          D              A
I get signs from the cops, saying stay the fuck down
      Bm             C#m            D              A
I get signs from the audience, saying stay the fuck down
      Bm         D
I get signs from god, saying stay the fuck down

           A
I've got a right to be depressed
              D
I've given every inch I had to fight it
     A
I've seen too much of this world, yes
       D
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
           A
And I will never see the light
               D
That I've seen shining in your eyes
         A
You just want to see me naked
        D                 C#m
So I'll hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it
E                 F#m
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold my breath

[Part 1]
             C  
Last night I drove to Harper's Ferry and I thought about you
there were signs on the road that warned me of stop signs
    D
the speed limit kept decreasing by ten
as we entered a town about halfway there
       G
it was almost raining at the train station
we put our hoods on our heads at the train station
         Bm
we threw rocks into the river
the river underneath the train tracks
             C
And when the train came it was so big and powerful
when it came into the little station
            D
I wanted to put my arms around it
but the conductor looked at me funny
      G 
so we had to say goodbye and leave
the monopoly board still in the backseat
          Bm
took that nightmare left turn to get out of town
ran into the decreasing speed limits again
C
What should I do? Eat breakfast
What should I do? Eat lunch
D
What should I do? Eat dinner
What should I do? Go to bed
G
Where can I go? Go to the store
Where can I go? Apply for jobs
B
Where can I go? Go to a friend's
Where can I go? Go to bed
C D G Bm
C
I wrote beach death when I thought you were taken
I wrote beach funeral when I knew you were taken
        D
I wrote beach fags, well it wasn't about you
but it could've been. well no it couldn't have
         G
I spent a week in Ocean City
and came back to find you were gone
          Bm
I spent a week in Illinois
and came back to find you were still gone
C
I pretended I was drunk when I came out to my friends
        D
I never came out to my friends
We were all on Skype
      G
and I laughed and changed the subject
                           Bm
she said "what's with this dog motif"     
I said "do you have something against
C   D 
dogs"
G   Bm
C
I am almost completely soulless
I am incapable of being human
D
I am incapable of being inhuman
I am living uncontrollably
          G
It should be antidepression
as a friend of mine suggested
             Bm 
because it's not the sadness that hurts you
it's the brain's reaction against it
C
It's not enough to love the unreal
I am inseparable from the impossible
D
I want gravity to stop for me
                                               G
My soul yearns for a fugitive from the laws of nature
I want a cut scene
         Bm
I want a cut from your face to my face
I want a cut I want
                      D     
I don't want to go insane
G                          Bm
I don't want to have schizophrenia
    C                           D
The ocean washed over your grave
    G                           Bm
The ocean washed over your grave

Last night I dreamed he was trying to kill you
G
I woke up and I was trying to kill you
C
It's been a year since we first met
G
I don't know if we're boyfriends yet
C
Do you have any crimes that
G
we can use to pass the time I'm
C
running out of drugs to try
G
C
We said we hated humans
G
We wanted to be humans
C
We said we hated humans
G
We wanted to be humans
Get more groceries get eaten get more groceries get eaten get more groceries

G
C
A book of Aubrey Beardsley art
G
corrupted me in youth
        C
now I'm trapped inside my youth
              G
and you're in love with late-stage youth
C
Thank god for the little things and and
G
fuck god that they're little things I am
C
running out of prayers to sing
G
C
And pretty soon you'll find some nice young
G
satanist with braces and one
C
capital o significant Other
G
and you can take him home to your mother and
say ma, this is my brother
C
We said we hated humans
G
We wanted to be humans
C
We said we hated humans
G
We wanted to be humans
Get more groceries get eaten get more groceries get eaten get more groceries
    C                    G
Get eaten by the one you love
          C               G
when they put their lips around you
        C                         G
you can feel their smile from the inside

Last night I dreamed he was trying to kill you
                                        Bm
I woke up and I was trying to kill you
     C
Your ears perked up
I perked up when your ears perked up
             D
you were all looking around
                       G
and I hoped it was for me
Bm
I hoped you were using your sonar systems for me
C
The ancients saw it coming
you can see that they tried to warn them
       D
in the tales that they told their children
but they fell out of their heads in the morning
     G
They said sex can be frightening
but the children were not listening
        Bm
and the children cut out everything
except for the kissing and the singing
          C
when they finally found their home
at Walt Disney studios
         D
and then everyone grew up
with their fundamental schemas fucked
              G
but there are lots of fish left in the sea
there are lots of fish in business suits
     Bm
that talk and walk on human feet
and visit doctors, have weak knees
C
oh please let me join your cult
D
I'll paint my face in your colors
G
You had a real nice face
Bm
I had an early death
C
The ocean washed over your grave
D
The ocean washed open your grave
G
The ocean washed over your grave
Bm
The ocean washed open your grave

Does It Feel Good To Say Goodbye intro

[Verse]
       C        G    Am
This plane is going down 
       C        G       Am
Anything to make you feel better 
   Em                       F
At least this time when it explodes into flames 
   Em                  G
No one could say that you’re to blame 
    C        G    Am
I forgot how to drive 
       C        G      Am
That’s why I’m taking this flight 
   Em                            F
With all of my shit piled on the passenger seat 
   Em                     G
I just couldn’t keep my eyes on the street 

C  G  Am
Now I go 
oooh 

      C        G         Am
This weather’s making me crazy 
    C           G               Am
Lightning keeps thinking it likes me 
   Em                         F
And I guess I can see why it wants to hit 
   Em                      G
But I am not a light though I am lit 
          C        G              Am
I’m just cruising through the stop sign 
       C            G         Am
Sorry officer, the radio was blowing my mind 
        Em                        F
They were playing a song that’s gone out of tune 
   Em                      G
I’ll take the rhythm but fuck them blues 

[Chorus]
C                  G                    Am
I’m not sad I’m sad not sad I’m sad not sad at all 

[Bridge]
C note    G note      A note
That’s not bad, man, keep going, you can do it, you already did it! 
You can make no mistakes, you’re perfect, you totally got this! 
Just shut up shut up shut up shut up with all this negative vibes, all this yelling 
Just shut up 

[Verse]
C                  G                    Am
And if your luggage got lost, you can leave without it 
C                       G                    Am
And if you run out of drugs, you can sleep without it, you know you can! 
C                  G                    Am
And if you want to go home, you can call a taxi 
C                  G                    Am
And if you don’t want to talk, you can sit in the backseat 

C G Am
Ooh

[Outro]
Am          C                 F       F
(inaudible) touched another
D        C        Am       Am
and everyone got hurt

[Verse]
E5   Eb5/E      B   
The drum wakes up. 
E5   Eb5/E   A 
He'll have a real black eye this time.
E5   Eb5/E   B
Hungover dream. 
E5   Eb5/E     A
He hung around too long last night.
E5   Eb5/E      B
The drum gets up. 
E5   Eb5/E  A
How will he feel about this one?
E5   Eb5/E        B 
The dream throws up.
E5   Eb5/E   A 
(He didn't feel too good this time.) 


[Chorus]
E       B
He's got it all. 
E       A
He's got it figured out.
E          B
Dream in the hall, 
E          A
back in the hospital.
E       B 
I'm not concerned. 
E           A
He'll get it straight this time –
A         B 
And if he doesn't, fuck it –

[Verse] (Palm Muted)
E5   Eb5/E    B
The gun goes off. 
E5   Eb5/E       A
He's always off about something.
E5   Eb5/E      B 
The drum just nods: 
E5   Eb5/E      A
the drum ain't listening at all.
E5   Eb5/E      B 
The drum gets drunk, 
E5   Eb5/E           A
the drum reads James Joyce in the drunk.
E5   Eb5/E       B 
The dream falls down. 
E5   Eb5/E       A
The drum's face breaks the dreams fall. 


[Chorus]
E     B
He don't have shit. 
E      A              
He's learned to live with it.
E         B 
The drum's in debt – 
E     A
you owe me don't forget –
E     B
That 20 bucks, 
E        A                  A         B
interest and moral support – and if you don't I swear –

A           B            A        B
This is our lifetime and I am his creator.
A                  B               A                 B
A young man slowly pulled apart by separate poles of gravity.
A           B            A        B
This is our lifetime and I am his creator.
A                  B               A                 B

A                  B               A                 B
A young man slowly pulled apart by separate poles of gravity.


[Verse]
E5   Eb5/E     B
The drum goes forth. 
E5   Eb5/E     A
He's got his flag unfurled or something.
E5   Eb5/E      B 
The drum won't stop,
E5   Eb5/E       A
the drum's a menace to the public.


[Chorus]
E        B 
Hold your drum high.
E     A
The drum is stoned again.
E        B
Don't wake him up, 
E        A
he'll just start talking.
E      B 
The drum is dead.
E       A
Long live the drum.
E      B 
The drum is dead.
E       A
Long live the drum.
E      B 
The drum is dead.
E       A
Long live the drum.
A                    B
And I - And I am his creator –

The Drum

Intro: A

Bm				   C#m
Last night I dreamed that you’d murdered some kids
           D		E		    A
Gone up towards the border where the freaks live
   Bm			C#m
I couldn’t tolerate it, yet somehow I did
  D		E	A
If it had been on TV I would’ve changed the channel
  Bm				C#m
And afterwards I lay awake for quite some time
        D		     E		A
And thought about opinions I’d kept
Bm			C#m
At five in the morning I couldn’t tolerate it
        D		  E	         A
How many had died while I slept?

[Chorus]
A			  D
Now is the time to cast Darwin aside
	A			     F#m
Stop spinning lies that justify the lure of suicide
Bm
And reach up your hands
C#m			     E
And save someone’s life
A		  D
Because war is coming
A	D
If you want it  [x2]

[Verse]
Bm			   C#m
She’s keeping quiet in a season of crime
D		        E
Walking away as if nothing had changed
A
From that awful display
Bm           C#m
People are strange
          D
If they keep on laughing
A
Nothing will change

[Chorus]
A			        D
Now is the time to cast the screenplay aside
A			   F#m
And try to create some space between the lines
Bm
To lift up your voice
C#m				E
And change someone’s mind
A		  D
Because war is coming
A	D
If you want it  [x2]
A	D
War is coming
A	D
If you want it          [x5]

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,

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

from all we shared together.

I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
    Em    A
lets run away.
D                             A                             Bm

I picked apart every word that you said

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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

Fast Car

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.
