Intro 1

Verse 1
E
E

Let's stop and talk on a slow street
C#m
C#m

Your guy is cross- eyed and muttering
A
A

Looks at me like "Now who
the fuck is he?"
B
B

And I tell you, man, I wish that I knew
E
E

Trash- scavenged mattress
and a stuffed bear
C#m
C#m

Bedbugs crawling through your
A
A

lover's hair
You got that thousand yard stare
B
B

I get itchy just from talking to you
E
E

Drained hopes sinking
with the August sun
C#m
C#m

Floating out on the
A
A

freshman year beer run
It's so hard to have fun
B
B

E
E

But there used to be a way to get through
C#m
C#m

E
E

All your amazed days fade
But all of the damned dogs they think
A
A

F#m
F#m

E
E

they've got it made
C#m
C#m

E
E

And no matter what you say
You know that you are gonna
A
A

B
B

do it anyway
A
A

F#m
F#m

E
E

A
A

E
E

Do it anyway
Knuckle tattoo says "I H8 2 LIVE"
C#m
C#m

On another dickhead who assures
me that I'm just too sensitive
A
A

You can't tell everybody
to fuck off forever
B
B

E
E

B
B

Then be mortified when they finally do
E
E

You had a textbook breakthrough
on a shaky plane
C#m
C#m

Seated next to kid,
A
A

hyperventilating
She's so embarrassed by her dad's
F#m
F#m

use of slang
B
B

And nobody ever gets to feel cool
E
E

These days I'm only saying
F#m
F#m

something if I'm swaying
C#m
C#m

That's the only time it doesn't
feel like I'm explaining
A
A

So if you see me and I seem too
entertaining
B
B

I'm not singing,
I'm just talking to you
E
E

But you don't want a funeral
unless everybody comes
C#m
C#m

And you don't want to kiss
until you're adequately numb
A
A

And you don't want to speak,
not even just to say goodbye
B
B

Because you don't want to share how
you're in shadows all the time
E
E

And you don't want to think about
the people that you knew
C#m
C#m

They're a tug on your sleeve,
they're an embarrassment to you
A
A

Just some bones in the sun,
just a decomposing rind
B
B

Just a sitcom that aired before
you were even alive
E
E

Your friends are full- length mirrors
that you pulled out of the garbage
C#m
C#m

Or ange juice soaked cotton balls to convince
you you're not starving
A
A

You need somebody to fuck,
someone to call when you get down
C#m
C#m

B
B

E
E

And some people to make wonder
B
B

why they even stick around
E
E

Now you don't want to drink,
you say it feels just the same as water
C#m
C#m

And you don't actually even like me, I just
subconsciously remind you of your father
A
A

His flannel shirts that smelled like
cigarettes and rain
B
B

And a whole catalog of things
that you wish never had to change
E
E

But it's never been quite like
it was when you were a kid
C#m
C#m

Puffy eyes, play fights, bug bites, Jif peanut butter,
A
A

B
B

E
E

Cinnamon Toast Crunch, strawberry allergy, beestings
All of the people are asleep
C#m
C#m

E
E

But tomorrow the punks
A
A

and the cops will both have to eat
E
E

And whatever those
C#m
C#m

E
E

people say
A
A

You know that you've got to do it anyway
Do it anyway.
