Intro:
G+G
Verse 1:
E minorEm
somewhere between here and las vegas
A minorAm C majorC
i'm sure there's a place i can rest my feet
G+G E minorEm
but for now, as i walk on, angry and jaded
A minorAm C majorC
i promise to the universe that i won't sleep until
G+G E minorEm
i get somewhere safe and sound
A minorAm C majorC
and i can find a phone to use
G+G E minorEm
to text my lord and savior, asking
A minorAm C majorC C minorCm G+G
"why has no one heard of you?"
Bridge 1:
G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC

G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC
see, i don't believe in god, oh, no, siree
G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC
see, i don't believe in god, 'cause god don't believe in me
G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC
see, i don't believe in god, oh, no, siree
Verse 2:
Note: E minorEm is played as a barre chord throughout this verse:
G+G E minorEm
it's been a long hard 19 years
A minorAm C majorC
since i stumbled onto earth
G+G E minorEm
holding my metrinome in one hand
A minorAm C majorC
with the other in the dirt
G+G E minorEm
digging for something like humanity
A minorAm C majorC
to reconstruct my sanity
G+G E minorEm
until a man who looked like sadness told me
A minorAm C majorC G+G
it was worth the heartache not to try

Verse 3:
G+G E minorEm
he said my songs are good when i'm upset
A minorAm C majorC
and everyone knows me for it
G+G E minorEm
so what's the point in changing
A minorAm C majorC
when there's alcohol and cigarettes
G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC
and coping mechanisms like this deconstructing schism
G+G E minorEm
inbetween my tunnel vision
A minorAm
holding onto something uniform
C majorC G+G E minorEm A minorAm C majorC
like it would ever make me less depressed
G+G E minorEm C minorCm G+G
ever make me less depressed
