(C)                   (Am)
I can't stand being alone for just a little while 
(F)                    (G)
Just a couple hours and i will hate myself 
(C)                     (Am)
Anxiety has led me to believe the ones i love will leave 
(F)                                 (G)
They're never coming back to me, and i will die alone 

(F)             (G)          (Am)
I don't have to sacrifice my happiness for anybody 
(F)                 (G)              (Am)
And i don't have to try to make sure i make everybody happy 
(F)               (G)     (Am)      (C)
Here's to all the times i cried and cried and cried 
(F)         (G)                (C)
Over something that i couldn't control 

           (C)                       (Am)
The little things that get under my skin, i cannot let them in 
   (F)                         (G)
I cannot let them tell me that i'm not good enough 
(C)                              (Am)
When i think that way i start to feel like there's no hope for me 
  (F)                       (C)
I start to feel the gravity pulling me to hell 


 (F)             (G)          (Am)
I don't have to sacrifice my happiness for anybody 
(F)                 (G)              (Am)
And i don't have to try to make sure i make everybody happy 
(F)               (G)     (Am)                 (C)
Here's to all the times i cried and cried and cried 
(F)         (G)                (C)
Over something that i couldn't control

(C7)
    (F)               (G)     (Am)                (C)
So here's to all the times i cried and cried and cried

Over something that i couldn't control

Anxiety Song

C 
You make me love the lines on my stomach
               E7                 
When I've been slouching for too long
      F   
The lines
      D7   
The lines
            

      C                        
The lines that make mistakes, the ones that
E7                  
We have yet to see,
F                               
Places that aren't as beautiful 
     D7                     
If you're not next to me,
      C   
The lines
  E7
(...)
     F             
The lines
  D7
(...)    


             C                                                                       
You make me love the way that my hair flips out
        E7                                   F   
And the way that my eyelids are different sizes
        D7                       
And my eyes are different colors
              C         
You make me love myself
      E7                          
The thing I thought I'd never do
          F   
But now I do
       D7             
And I love you, too,
      C   
The lines

You make me love the lines that we must wait in
E7                               
Every time that we buy somethin'
    F                              
But I don't mind, It gives me time 
     D7           
To talk with you,
          C                E7   
So I'll wait in line with you
                        F 
For as long as we have to,

D7
,,,



    F          
And I was only nine
(let the chords ring)
                D7                      
When she said "You still have baby fat,
              C 
I don't have mine." 
(start strumming again)
                  
(I don't have mine)

    F              
And I was only thirteen 
(let the chords ring again)
                    D7              C                  
When he said "Your BMI is far too high"
(Start strumming on the C chord)
              
(Far too high)


              C                          
You make me love the lines on my stomach 
                    E7                  
When I've been slouching for too long,
       F                     
The lines that make mistakes,
       D7              
The places we belong,
              C                                 
You make me love the way that my hair flips out 
         E7                                  F    
And the way that my eyelids are different sizes
         D7                      
And my eyes are different colors
                         
             C
You make me love myself
(Let the chords ring)
       E7                             
The thing I thought I could never do

          F 
But now I do

D7
                  D7
And I love you,

       
Too

The Lines

The whole song is C, G, F

C                G                    F
There is nothing I hate more than going to family reunions
C                G                    F
I hate being surrounded by all you stupid fuckers and your children

C         
Woah - oh - oh - oh - oh
G
I know - oh - oh - oh - oh
F
That I'm supposed to like you, but I don't



# The song is the same until after the second chorus


G                                   F
So the next time you tell me how to live, remember

C         
Woah - oh - oh - oh - oh
G
I know - oh - oh - oh - oh
F                                                  C   G   F
I always know whats best for myself, and I don't need you
C                            G                   F
This is my life, and I don't need opinions from you

Family Reunions

G                                 D
when i was very young my neighbor would give me klondike bars

G                                          D
i would climb in the tree that someone had planted in my back yard

G                                D
everything had felt infinite and i know it sounds cliche

G                                       D
but i have to admit it sometimes i wish i could still feel that way


Chorus:
C                         D
but no one was home, yeah everyone was gone

G                             Em  
and i never went back because i knew all along 

C                               D
that you were never coming home, i knew it from the start

G                           Em
i was only five years old, but i was pretty smart

C         D      G   Em 
and you were gone for good

C                              D                       G
yeah i was pretty smart and i knew you were gone for good



G                                             D
when i was a little bit older i heard that my neighbor had passed away

G                                       D
a few years later i had a klondike and it didn't taste the same

G                                      D
i moved away from the house i lived in when i was five years old

G                                       D
i was never coming back but i could see that you were growing old


Chorus:
C                         D
but no one was home, yeah everyone was gone

G                             Em  
and i never went back because i knew all along 

C                               D
that you were never coming home, i knew it from the start

G                           Em
i was only five years old, but i was pretty smart

C         D      G   Em 
and you were gone for good

C                              D                       G
yeah i was pretty smart and i knew you were gone for good

F                 G                        C

Dining Room Table

Capo on 1st fret (C, D, F continued throughout the whole song)

C          D           F
hell i can try to make believe that i hate watching tv but, 

C          D          F
i'd be lying because parks n rec comes on at 8 

C          D          F
and i can rant, and i can scream bout how i hate the corporate pigs,

C             D            F
i really do, but theres a big sale down at target too 

C,D,F
C,D,F


but theres also a punk rock show, in my friends basement down the road 
and we'll scream up the punks until our throats are dry 
and tomorrow we'll scream DIY or cry 
and even then we'll scream louder, until those pigs can hear our words 
and we will curse them until they die 
and tomorrow we'll scream DIY or cry 
and we'll make patches and sell copies of punk by the slice 
we're ride our bikes to the post office 
a paper hello to our friends, we make the promise 
that we'll spread love until the end

Diy Or Cry (the Bunny Song)

[Intro]
Muted G

[Verse 1]
G                      E
Everyday my beliefs are solidified
     C
Everyday I hear someone being an asshole
    D                        G               E
And I remember why I started this whole thing anyway
    C
I remember how I was feeling numb

How I was feeling

[Chorus]
     C
Look up to the sun
   D
Or go outside
   G
Or ride your bike
           C
And play a ukulele
     D             G
Just do it for yourself
   C     D
So DIY or DIT
G                                C
Have a bonfire and make some moon tea
     D            G
Just do it for yourself

[Verse 2]
G
I wake up and tell myself
E
Yes I can
  C                                D
I say that I'll get better and I'll talk about the weather
      G                    E
And I know how hard you try everyday
      C                         D
And I promise I'm trying just as hard all the time

[Chorus]
     C
Look up to the sun
   D
Or go outside
   G
Or ride your bike
           C
And play a ukulele
     D             G
Just do it for yourself
   C     D
So DIY or DIT
G                                C
Have a bonfire and make some moon tea
     D            G
Just do it for yourself

(Muted G and clapping)

Look up to the sun 
Or go outside
Or ride your bike
Or play a ukulele 
Just do it for yourself
So DIY or DIT
Have a bonfire and make some moon tea
Just do it for yourself

Do It For Yourself

Intro: G, D, C, D

G                        D
i used to pray to yr god every night 
C                   D
hoping that i'd wake up crazy 

G                             D
cause life was too simple and easy to live 
C                  D
and i wanted chaos to save me 

G                        D
i used to pray for a fucked up turn of 
C                           D
events that would leave me hopeless 

G                         D
what i didn't know then, i know now 
C                       D
wouldn't help me to write this down 


Chorus:
C             D
going through life, hoping to die 

G 
hoping that if i look to the sky 

C           D             G
i might get hit by a bus and die 

C           D            G             Em
or at least get hit by a truck full of creation 

C            D             G
get hit by a truck full of inspiration

Hit By A Bus

I don't think I could ever be a nihilist because I have so many friends I believe in, 

C     E     F
and they believe in me

            C           E            F                        C       E       F
I could never stop caring forever and ever when I see the bees

C      E       F              C    E     F
Buzzing around the flowers and their leaves

And I know I should probably be sick of you calling but i'm not

F                                 G                      C         E          F
And i know i should probably be sick of you calling but i still get the feeling in my gut

C                          E                 F                                   G

and i'm running out of words, or running out of patience 
D
i'm wishing i'd forget all of the times i hesitated 
G
i've come out of the closet at least three separate times 
C
and everyday there's something new i realize 
Am
about myself, and thats okay 
D
i'd rather be myself than be any other way x2 

C                                 D                               G

C                                D
i'm done pretending, i'm done forgetting 
G                          G7

C               D                   G

G                               D                   A
i contracted mono through sweat while moshing at a show

i know its not the worst thing that can happen to me

The Mono Song (summer Of '13)

[intro]
F Am Dm Am A# Dm Gm C

[Verse 1]
             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room
    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Verse 2]
            F 
The truth is, I am toy
                Dm
that people enjoy
                Am               A#
till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave

I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio

I don't, I sing-a-long

Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo

Somehow we end up on the same side

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
