Verse:
        G5G5   A augmentedA        B minorBm
You want to suffer and show me you're angry,
        G5G5     A augmentedA        B minorBm
Fight with your fists up or call for your mommy
        G5G5   A augmentedA        B minorBm   G5G5  A augmentedA  B minorBm
You want to suffer and show me you're angry
        G5G5    A augmentedA        B minorBm
Spend time alone, find a stick in the basement
           G5G5    A augmentedA     B minorBm
Drink water and gold dust and live on impatience.
            G5G5 A augmentedA         B minorBm
Slaughtered for weakness, electric like static
            G5G5     A augmentedA        B minorBm
Slaughtered, you're weak - there's no need to speak

Chorus:
          E7E7       A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm
I light firecrackers
         G+G     A augmentedA   B minorBm
You step on the sparks
          E7E7  A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm      G+G
I light firecrackers

A augmentedA   B minorBm   A augmentedA   G5G5  B minorBm


       G5G5    A augmentedA    B minorBm
I shouldn't be any great inspiration
      G5G5      A augmentedA    B minorBm
I never got in your way
     G5G5  A augmentedA       B minorBm
I should never have to chase you
        G5G5  A augmentedA     B minorBm
You were the one who ran away
                         E7E7     A augmentedA        B minorBm
If you could feel the pain your confusion has caused me
           G5G5 A augmentedA        B minorBm
You would have stopped   before you spoke
        E7E7     A augmentedA       B minorBm
Listening to lies, the pain doesn't suit me
           E7E7  A augmentedA      B minorBm
He gift that you gave me, I put it away
          E7E7 A augmentedA          B minorBm
I couldn't look at it, it made me think of you
         E7E7     A augmentedA       B minorBm
You get in the way

Chorus:
          E7E7       A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm
I light firecrackers
         G+G     A augmentedA   B minorBm
You step on the sparks
          E7E7  A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm      G+G
I light firecrackers

        G5G5    A augmentedA        B minorBm
Spend time alone, find a stick in the basement
           G5G5   A augmentedA     B minorBm
Drink water and gold dust and die of impatience.
          G5G5    A augmentedA       B minorBm
Electric like static, and no need to speak.
     G5G5         A augmentedA        B minorBm
It's not right but it's not wrong
   G5G5       A augmentedA  B minorBm
So I wrote this song
   G5G5    A augmentedA        B minorBm
So I wrote this song- is that what you want
           E7E7       A augmentedA     B minorBm
You got what you want - does it make you feel better?
          E7E7   A augmentedA     B minorBm
A augmentedA smirk on your face and a gun at my head,
          E7E7  A augmentedA     B minorBm
You come to my place and ask to be fed

Chorus:
          E7E7       A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm
I light firecrackers
         G+G     A augmentedA   B minorBm
You step on the sparks
          E7E7  A augmentedA
You change your shoelaces
    B minorBm      G+G
I light firecrackers

                   G5G5    A augmentedA        B minorBm
You get in the way
        G5G5    A augmentedA        B minorBm
You get in the way
        G5G5   A augmentedA        B minorBm
You want to suffer and show me your angry
          G5G5   A augmentedA      B minorBm
Fight with your fists up or call for your mommy
        G5G5   A augmentedA        B minorBm
You want to suffer and show me your angry
