Portugal. The Man is an experimental indie rock four-piece centered on frontman John Baldwin Gourley's abstract musical approach and corresponding upbringing. He was raised in a sort of technological isolation: his log cabin home in the winter wasteland of the fringes of Wasilla, Alaska was powered by a generator and had no telephone. Both of his parents helped completely immerse him in the unique lifestyle that comes with a land of seasonal darkness and perpetual cold with their jobs as dog sled mushers.

Intro: C, Em # (x2)
 
C
If pain was a color to paint on you
     E7
Your heart would be the color blue.
     Am
Be a gradient from there till your body met your hair
D
Which would remain a silver hue
C
You are the one they call Jesus Christ.
    E7
Who didn't know no rock and roll.
       Am
Just a mission and a gun to paint rainbows in Vietnam
      D
And a heart that always told you

          F             C
There's a madness in us all.
          F             C
There's a madness in us all.



   C
So who broke the rules?
Em
Who broke the rules?
Am
Who broke the rules?
          F                           C
They said every one of you will never try to lend a hand
         Em                         Am
When the policemen don't understand.
C             F
Boys, all you boys
                Am         G
Think you're so American.
C              F
Girls, all you girls
                Am         G
Yeah you're so American.




C
He may not be born of this land
    E7
But he was born of this world.
       Am
He was born of all the mothers and the colors of our brothers
        D
And the love that was taught to

C
you by the one they call Jesus Christ.
   E7
He may not know no rock and roll.
      Am
There may not be a heaven, or a place of which to send you,
        D
But you know in the end




          F            C
There's a madness in us all.
          F             C
There's a madness in us all. # (x2)

        F                  C
There's two eyes for every one of us
             Em                                Am G
But somebody got there first and took them all.

C       F
Man, oh man
                  Am         G
You think it's so American
C       F

The chords in this song aren't strummed, they're arpeggiated like this:

---------1--------|
-----1-----1---1--|
---2---2-----2----|
-3----------------|
------------------|
------------------|

except for the F and A in the F-A-Dm part which is either played like:

------------------1-| your choice.
-----1----------1---|
---2---2-or---2-----|
-3----------3-------|
--------------------|
--------------------|

All the chords are barre chord shapes (except the first two Dm in each verse,
 which are open), so the picking pattern stays consistent throughout the song.

 F DM, AND AM FOR THE PRECHORUS

CHORUS: AM C DM  AM

Can't keep my hands to myself
Think I'll dust 'em off, put 'em back up on the shelf
In case my little baby girl is in need
Am I coming out of left field?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

Got another mouth to feed
Leave it with a baby sitter, mama, call the grave digger
Gone with the fallen leaves
Am I coming out of left field?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I been feeling it since 1966, now
Might've had your fill, but you feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

We could fight a war for peace
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
Give in to that easy living
Goodbye to my hopes and dreams
Start flipping for my enemies
We could wait until the walls come down
(Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now)
It's time to give a little to the
Kids in the middle, but, oh until it falls
Won't bother me

Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming?
Is it coming back?

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, yeah
Your love is an abyss for my heart to eclipse, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still

Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
I've been feeling it since 1966, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
Let me kick it like it's 1986, now
Might be over now, but I feel it still
Might've had your fill, but I feel it still

You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back
G
But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack
Em
We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe
G
You'll get back home and you'll see your baby
Am
Oh oh, we'll just act like we care

Em
All we needed is a reason it don't need to be clear
G
Singing songs to the news it can play to their fears
Em
Someone's gotta die but you don't have to love it
G
But the military's still got more in its budget 
Am
Oh, we always need more next year

                       (Em)                    
No one cares about the waves
         C
At the bottom of the ocean
       G                D
And the bottom of the ocean 
           A
Is always blue
              Em        Dsus2
No one will remember 
         C            
Cause nothing lasts forever
      G           D
And everybody's looking 
                 A
For somebody to use

Em      
When we can't bring them home and the war hasn't ended
G
There's still money there and that money needs spending
Em
The powers that be, we gotta do what we do
G
And if they never know it then they'll never feel used
Am
Oh oh oh, like i often do

Em
To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache
G
Crying all i wanted is to be your baby 
Em
And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache
G
Crying cause their never gonna see they're baby
Am
Oh oh, we just act like we care

                        Em        Dsus2
No one cares about the waves
         C
At the bottom of the ocean
        G              D
And the bottom of the ocean 
           A
Is always blue
              Em         Dsus2
No one will remember 
        C
Cause nothing lasts forever
      G              D
And everybody's looking 
                 A
For somebody to use
             Em         Dsus2
No one will remember
         C
Cause nothing lasts forever
         G              D
And the worlds always changing
                A
and its always blue.

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,
        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
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 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah,

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.
