Key: E


Intro:

D


Verse 1:
D                   G
I'm soft 'round the edge
                                       D
Stuck a finger in the icing and left a dent
                         G
I've blamed my genes and friends
                  D
Spun a ?: but it won't mend

Pre-Chorus:
          G                                                     D
I learned dishing out the dirt, dishing out the hurt never made me stronger
          G                                                           A
I learned keeping crystals charged and bitching 'bout the stars won't do


Chorus:
     D
So I keep on for the hell of it
G
Keep on, hard to tell if it's
A             G
Blowing up or moving backwards
    D
I'm sincere but the devil is
G
Right here and he's telling me
A                                   G
Don't you know you can't believe in happy ever after?
A                               G                    D
This lonely road you're on goes on and on beyond Alaska


Verse 2:
D                   G
I've played student rooms
                                         D
For a can of ginger beer and a home made soup
D
I've driven back at midnight
      G
Still buzzing from the way they sang the words
                 D
I thought nobody heard


Pre-Chorus:
          G                                         D
I learned laying in my bed, obsessing never made me stronger
          G                                                           A
I learned keeping crystals charged and bitching 'bout the stars won't do


Chorus:
     D
So I keep on for the hell of it
G
Keep on, hard to tell if it's
A             G
Blowing up or moving backwards
    D
I'm sincere but the devil is
G
Right here and he's telling me
A                                   G
Don't you know you can't believe in happy ever after?
A                               G                    Bm
This lonely road you're on goes on and on beyond Alaska


Outro:
Bm
Ah-la, la-la-la-la-la
E                  G
Ah-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
A
On and on beyond Alaska
Bm
Ah-la, la-la-la-la-la
E                  G
Ah-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
                     D
