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

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

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


         D           G
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee X3
A
Dee dee dee dee
                 D
Dee dee dee dee dee

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

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

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

         D           G
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee X3
A
Dee dee dee dee
                 D
Dee dee dee dee dee

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


         D           G
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee X3
A
Dee dee dee dee
                 D
Dee dee dee dee dee
