Jimmy Eat World formed in Mesa, Arizona, United States in 1993. They are associated with an array of genres including emo, alternative rock, indie rock and pop punk. Singer/guitarist Jim Adkins and drummer Zach Lind, who had been friends since kindergarten, joined forces with co-vocalist/guitarist Tom Linton and bass player Mitch Porter to try their hand at music. In its early years the band emulated the style of their punk rock influences, and they eventually recorded and released three singles and a full-length, self-titled album on local label Wooden Blue Records. 

Intro:

(D)(A)(G)(D)

(D)                            (A)
Hey, don't write yourself off yet 
                            (G)                         (D)
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
                                       (A)
Just try your best, try everything you can.
                               (G)                          (D)     
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.

Chorus:

(D)                      (A)
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
                                     (G) 
Everything (everything) will be just fine,

                            (G)                         (D)
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
                                  (A)
Live right now. Yeah, just be yourself.
                           (G)                    (D)
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.

Chorus x2:

(D)                      (A)
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.

It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
                                     (A)
Just do your best, do everything you can.
                              (G)                     (D)     
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.

Chorus x2:

(D)                      (A)
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
                                     (G) 
Everything (everything) will be just fine,
                                 (D)
Everything (everything) will be alright (alright).

There's no one in town I know
Am                          F
You gave us some place to go
F                              G
I never said thank you for that
G                                    C
I thought I might get one more chance

So what would you think of me now
Am                         F
So lucky so strong so proud
F                              G
I never said thank you for that
G
Now I'll never have the chance
G   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in
C        Am    F
Hear you me my friends
F  C         Am        F
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
F   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in
C                                Am
So what would you think of me now
Am                         F
So lucky so strong so proud
F                              G
I never said thank you for that
G
Now I'll never have the chance
G   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in
C        Am    F
Hear you me my friends
F  C         Am        F
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
F   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in

And if you were with me tonight
Am                                F
I'd sing to you just one more time
F                        G
A song for a heart so big
G
God wouldn't let it live
G   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in

Hear you me my friends
F  C         Am        F
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
F   C      Am       F
May angels lead you in

[Verse 1]
   Bm                 A
I felt for sure last night
    D                G
That once we said "goodbye",
       Bm                  A
No one else will know these lonely dreams,
       D                  G
No one else will know that part of me.
     Bm              A
I'm still driving away,
         D           G
And I'm sorry everyday.
        Bm               A
I won't always love these selfish things,
        D            G
I won't always live not stopping...

Bm  A  D  G

[Verse 2]
    Bm                 A
It was my turn to decide,
    D                G
I knew this was our time.
   Bm                 A
No one else will have me like you do,
   D                G 
No one else will have me, only you.


[Chorus 1]
       Em           G                          D
You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time,
              A
What are you hoping for?
     Em                  G                D
I'm here, I'm now, I'm ready, holding on tight,
                    A                                Bm
Don't give away the end, the one thing that stays mine.

[Verse 3]
Bm                 A
Amazing still it seems
D                G
I'll be 23.
Bm                 A
I won't always love what I'll never have,
D                G
I won't always live in my regrets.


[Chorus 1]
       Em           G                          D
You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time,
              A
What are you hoping for?
     Em                  G                D
I'm here, I'm now, I'm ready, holding on tight,
                    A                                Em
Don't give away the end, the one thing that stays mine.

  Could've been a night like any other:

  One of us has to drive,
             Bb
  One of us gets to think.
F                                  Dm
  I'll force a laugh to break the silence,
                  Bb
  It's gonna get harder still
     Bb
  Before it gets easy.

F
   She's all lost in this,
Dm                        Bb
   She's all like she'll always be,

   A little far for me to reach.


# Verse 2:

I was just a boy like every other,

I thought I was something fierce,
                 Bb
I thought I was ten times smarter.
 F                                    Dm
Love would be something that I just know,
                Bb
How you gonna know the feeling till you've lost it.

  Maybe something else I'm missing;
C                     Dm         Bb
  Something good and you're the reason,
C                             Dm        Bb
  It's a dream but there's a real long wedding.

Authority Song

Intro: A   D   G

  A      D                 G
"Take advantage of these times", you said,
     G
You let me down,
    A      D        G
It hasn't been the first time.
 A      D              G
As I'm falling in the pit of fire, my mind's made up:
     A     D      G
I'm never coming back here.


Chorus:
D                        A       
  And how long would it take me
                       Bm                G
  To walk across the United States all alone?
D                           A
  The West coast has been traumatized,
                       Bm              G
  And I think I'm the only one still alive.


[Repeat Intro]


Is it just a coincidence
To see you by yourself with no direction?
Now it's time to move on, and then,
Don't you know that things aren't getting better?


[Chorus]


          Bm               D
When the world caves in, whatcha gonna do?
          G
When the world caves in, whatcha gonna do for me?
          Bm               D
When the world caves in, whatcha gonna do?
          G
When the world caves in, whatcha gonna do for me?
               Bm
Don't try and stop me,
             D          
Because I'm falling fast
           G
Into this pit of fire, which surrounds us all.
      Bm                
In a blanket of fear
                D
That I've been wrapped in for years.
               G    
Don't try and stop me, you can't stop me.

Verse  
     A
You close your eyes and kiss your hand then you blow it.
      F#m
Why isn't it for me, and I noticed
      E
If the choice was ours alone,
Then why'd we both choose letting go?
      D
Does it end like this?

      A
Time never had a chance to heal your heart
      F#m     
Just remember always counting down to a new start
      E
You always knew the truth
And the world would spin around you
     D
Are you dizzy yet?

CHORUS
     F#m                                 D
Respectfully, so honestly I'm asking now
           A                                       E
Do you hear the conversation we talk around?
     F#m                                 D
Back away to the safety of a quiet house
            A                     
If there's half a chance in this moment
                   E
When your eyes meet mine, we show it off.

Verse
I'll talk and not a lot to think, we live in dreams
And she never quit close to our naked feet
If there's something left to lose,
Then don't let me wear out my shoes
That I still walk in.

I tried, but it rang and rang, I called all night
On a payphone, remember those from another life?
If everything I meant to you,
You can't lick and seal then fold in two
Then avenge so blind.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
F#m                      E    
Oh, oh take it all back, take the first, the last and only.
D
Oh, oh take it all back, take it all back,

Everything you showed me.
F#m                        E                   D
Oh, oh, this must be how it feels

I told you as I haven't, I never felt this way
I said I have this chocolate stocked my car
Baby it's okay
You said you never had regrets
She says "there's someone else"
Who got that wish, did you get your claim?

  I'm done, there's nothing left to show,

  I try but I can't let go.

  Are you happy where you're standing still?

  Do you really want the sugar pill?

  I'll wake up tomorrow and I'll start,
                          Cm
  To another it feels so hard.
                                 A#
  As a train approaches, getting on,
                                    Fm
  As I'm sure your kiss remains employed,
        G#
  Am I only dreaming?

But you're killing everything in me...

School Friends

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

...
