Chords with lyrics

Intro: (x2)
E minor 7Em7 Cadd9Cadd9

Verse:
E minor 7Em7                     Cadd9Cadd9
Tried to get the audience out from inside my head
E minor 7Em7                                 Cadd9Cadd9
And the things you say are beautiful, but they don’t make very much sense
E minor 7Em7                D MajorD           Cadd9Cadd9
From the day that I was born, they took me for all that I had
E minor 7Em7       Cadd9Cadd9
And I let them, ‘cause they let me in
E minor 7Em7        D MajorD           Cadd9Cadd9
I'm so weak, I can barely hold this instrument

Chorus:
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna do whatever you wanna do
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna make fun of cops with you

Verse:
E minor 7Em7                 Cadd9Cadd9
You went on tour and I went on medication
E minor 7Em7                                 Cadd9Cadd9
I’ve been stuck in this waiting room and they’re telling me to stay patient
E minor 7Em7               D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
So, I’ll close my eyes and I’ll sing this song for you
E minor 7Em7                 Cadd9Cadd9
Celebrate with a joint or two, and a new backyard tattoo
E minor 7Em7                     D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
And think of the time that we spent watching X-Files in your living room

Chorus:
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna do whatever you wanna do
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna find every truth with you

Verse:
E minor 7Em7                           Cadd9Cadd9
And it all comes down to the knowledge that we’re gonna die
E minor 7Em7                          Cadd9Cadd9
Find comfort in that or be scared for the rest of your life
E minor 7Em7              D MajorD           Cadd9Cadd9
So, I sing and I scream and I strum and I try to help out
E minor 7Em7                   Cadd9Cadd9
’Til I can build a little house that the government doesn’t know about
E minor 7Em7                D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
But I’d rather be right here than anywhere else, right now

Chorus:
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna do whatever you wanna do
G+G    D MajorD         Cadd9Cadd9
I wanna watch the empire fall with you

Bridge: (x2)
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC

Verse:
E minorEm            D MajorD            C majorC                E minorEm   D MajorD    C majorC
And it’s fucking with me that you didn’t see that it wasn’t them and it was always me who knew too much
E minorEm             D MajorD               C majorC
And I’m no storyteller the way you are, I’m just an angry kid who got given a guitar
E minorEm            D MajorD    C majorC
But how dare you say that I’m too young
E minorEm                 D MajorD        C majorC
To know that the ticket prices are going up and the trains still aren’t on time
E minorEm              D MajorD             C majorC
And the thugs that patrol the lines are the reason I’ll never pay my fines
E minorEm             D MajorD       C majorC
And prescription prices are going up and we’re not making any more money
E minorEm           D MajorD   C majorC
Tony’s wallet’s getting heavy, Gina's stomach is far from empty
E minorEm          D MajorD         C majorC
And it’s too many in my mind and now I’m living on the west side
E minorEm           D MajorD        C majorC
You say “Breathe it in, breathe it out”, you don’t know what you’re talking about
E MajorE             D MajorD          C majorC
And it’s eating away at my insides and now I’m living on the west side
E minorEm       D MajorD        C majorC
And my mother says I’ve gotten thin
E minorEm            D MajorD          C majorC                       E minorEm
