Capo 1

Intro:
C Am x4

Verse 1:

C
   Am                 C   Am     C              Am       C
I would listen to the radio if I liked songs produced by 40 year olds
  G
In high tech studios in the Valley
        F
Give me something that I can tap my toes to
    C             Am        C     Am
And scream at the top of my lungs
        C        Am            G                         F
'Til it sounded like I've been smoking from the day that I was born

Verse 2:
                          C
And you know that I would clap my hands until they’re red
Am
And sacrifice my body to the beat of the drum
G
Sonic rounds would spoon out my eyeballs
       F                          C
And my feet would be glued to the floor

Verse 3:
   Am                C
My head was high then
    Am
Higher than today
       G
It was easy to believe in something
       F                            C
When I didn’t know a Goddamn thing
  Am               C
I close my eyelids
    Am                     G
And wait for the clouds to part
               F
And the sun to shine on me

Interlude:
Verse 1: chords

Outro:
C Am F F x1

C
Do you remember April 17th?
Am
When I lost my shit and a couple of teeth
F
And I said “Oh, God” I need someone to help me
F                       C Am
Keep moving on my feet
F                          C          Am
It’s getting harder to be real, to be real, darling
F
                oh, real darling
