D
♫ Verse 1:
D
I try not to give a fuck about the little things
B#m
Yet still every particle of pressure
Got my psyche circling the drain
G
But shit I can’t complain
Compared to many folks I got it great
A
So, why's it always seem
B#m
That everything was better yesterday
D
Sure, I suppose that I could down another fifth
B#m
To help myself forget
Pocket the grenade and pull the pin
G
But giving in is overrated
And I’m sick of being faded
A
And I’d like my epitaph to read
They made it
♫ Chorus:
So, we’ll have to
D
Wipe the sweat from our brows
Tears from our eyes
B#m
Booze from our mouths
I know shits going south
But we got this
A
Just as long as we don’t cave
G
To the escape route
A D
Just chug along and everything will play out fine
B#m
Or maybe it won't
G
Maybe we're fucked
D
Maybe we’re born to die
A
And all shit out of luck
D
Plus, it does feel a bit narcissistic
G
To deny our existence
G A D
Is an accident congealed from the dust
♫ Interlude:
D B#m A G D
A
♫ Verse 2:
A A
How I’d love to find myself
G
Some solace in some pollyannaish paradise
D
And view the glass half full
B#m
But it’s just so difficult
To not fill every glass in sight with booze
G
I’ve got so many self-inflicted bullet wounds
In both my feet
A
That it’s a miracle I ever leave the bed
To walk the streets
D
When I do a wave of panic washes over me
B#m
And shrivels up my lungs
Can’t seem to act the way I’m supposed to be
D G
Without catching a buzz
Meaning is tough to find when anchored to a drug
A
So, I hold dear the hope
With work one day I'll live a life unplugged
♫ Chorus:
So, we’ll
D
Wipe the sweat from our brows
Tears from our eyes
B#m
Booze from our mouths
I know shits going south
But we got this
G
Just as long as we don’t cave
A
To the escape route
G A D
Just chug along and everything will play out fine
B#m
Or maybe it won’t
G
Maybe we’re screwed
D
Maybe we’re just arbitrary blips
A
All born to lose
B#m
Maybe searching for meaning or hope
G
To deny life is pointless
A G D
And this consciousness shit’s all a rouse
♫ Interlude:
D B#m A G D
A
♫ Verse 3:
D
For every happy thought I’ve ever had
B#m
There dwells a voice within my head
That speaks to sabotage my comfort
G
With an existential dread
Oh, how nice it’d be to just enjoy one day
A
Without the vacuum of anxiety to suck the fun away
D
Like it’s a gorgeous day outside
B#m
Too bad that everyone I know will die
It doesn’t matter what we leave behind
G
We’re all standing in place
Just launching arrows at the sky
A
The finish line of this rat race
Is just our imminent demise
D
See what I mean?
