🎸 Verse 1:
D MajorD             G+G
Fighting for survival is such a boring Battle
    D MajorD
Want to get into my car
     G+G
I wanna drive out to Seattle
     A augmentedA
Where the used record stores
   G+G
Have much better prices
    A augmentedA
But I don't have a car
   G+G
And I don't have a license

🎸 Verse 2:
     D MajorD            G+G
Should I take another walk to the DMV
   D MajorD               G+G
Get another learners permit with a Picture of me
  A augmentedA
I'd put it in my wallet
 G+G
Along with my four dollars
     A augmentedA
And the condom that's still in there
      G+G
That has probably expired
   Em/GEm/G
I'd leave home for New York

But New York is where I'm from
     A augmentedA
I'm just looking for a way
      G+G
To feel my life has begun

     D MajorD      G+G
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee X3
A augmentedA
Dee dee dee dee
         D MajorD
Dee dee dee dee dee

🎸 Verse 3:
D MajorD
Living in the city
      G+G
Where I'm working like a walrus
    D MajorD
But man I don't need your money
    G+G
Man I'm gonna be an artist
     A augmentedA
Feeling like I wanna do
  G+G
Whatever I feel inside
 A augmentedA
Put it down on paper
     G+G
And I'll hope that people buy it

🎸 Verse 4:
    D MajorD
And my only minor worry
  G+G
Is how to pay the rent
   D MajorD
But that won't even matter
    G+G
When I lose my apartment
      A augmentedA
Then I'll really have no worries
     G+G
I'll be just like a cassette
   A augmentedA
That you've taped up the tabs up
    G+G
To put something new on it
  Em/GEm/G
And when I hit record

God only knows what I will be
  A augmentedA
And if there is no god
       G+G
Then it's a better mystery

     D MajorD      G+G
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee X3
A augmentedA
Dee dee dee dee
         D MajorD
Dee dee dee dee dee

🎸 Verse 5:
D MajorD              G+G
Fighting for survival and I guess I must Be winning
    D MajorD
And my story is so long
      G+G
I can't remember the beginning
  Em/GEm/G
A minorAm I an optimist
   Em/GEm/G
Or am I a pessimist
   A augmentedA
If I see a half empty half full cup
     G+G
Is half full
       A augmentedA
Of nothingness.


     D MajorD      G+G

Dee dee dee dee
         D MajorD
Dee dee dee dee dee
