[Intro]
Gm7/C
[Verse 1]
Cadd9Cadd9
Wiped out down the stairs
Cadd9Cadd9
I'll bet you there's a song in there
Cadd9Cadd9
I'm not sure I'm prepared to write it down
Cadd9Cadd9
That guy should be me
Cadd9Cadd9
I'd look much better on t.v.
E minor 7Em7
Then the world would see
Cadd9Cadd9
That I can do anything
[Chorus]
G/AG/A
I can be that
G/BG/B
But soon you'll see that
C2
I will never do anything
Gm7/C (x7, palm mute after each one)
[Verse 2]
Let's play tic tac toe
I'll play X, you can be the O.
Thoughts of turning pro
Have crossed my mind
I could make a mint
Fill my pockets with more than lint
I'll give you a hint
It involves the "internet"
[Chorus] (x2)
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
[Bridge 1]
Em/F#
Don't write me off as an also ran
G+G
Just mark me down as an angry man
E minor 7Em7
Got a big chip, you want a fat lip?
C1
How 'bout a mouthful of Chiclets?
Em/F#
Life passed me by, but it's not my fault
G+G
I'll lick my wounds, could you pass the salt?
[Chorus] (x2)
I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
Gm7/C (x7, palm mute after each one)
[Instrumental]
Gm7/C
[Bridge 2]
Gm7/C
Awwwwwww, If I were the king
All my subjects they would dance and sing
They could kiss my ring
C2
And kiss my ass
Cadd9Cadd9
When I'm old and grey
Cadd9Cadd9
I'll look back on my life and say
E minorEm
"Give me one more day,
Cadd9Cadd9
And I'll still never do anything."
[Chorus] (x4)
I can be that
but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
