Chords with lyrics
The Menzingers - Lookers
This is the newly released Menzingers song, I really love it so Ill try to tab it out. Most of the song is
powerchords, so Ill just write up a chord chart and tab out some of the riffs below. These lyrics are pretty
iffy, I'll edit them when the lyrics get released, this is a guess for now as a placeholder, sorry.
Tuning: Half-step down
Dsus2Dsus2
Lost in a picture frame where our bodies used to behave
Dsus2/B
When you smiled in the moment
(Dsus2/B) G6G6
Before the puddle nearly froze
(G6G6) D MajorD
But that was the old me and you when we were both lookers
D MajorD
Lost in a picture frame the way my body used to behave
B minorBm
The way I smiled in the moment
(B minorBm) A augmentedA G+G
before the puddle nearly froze
(G+G)
But that was the old me
(G+G) D MajorD
I was such a looker in the old days
D MajorD
You little Kerouac, always running like Dean and Sal
B minorBm
Always waiting on a freight train,
(B minorBm) A augmentedA G+G
Always looking for a story to tell,
(G+G)
but that was the old you
(G+G) D MajorD
You were such a looker in the old days
(D MajorD)
Yeah we were both lookers
B minorBm A augmentedA
Shine the light on jersey girls
D MajorD G+G
they were always total heart breakers
B minorBm A augmentedA
Truly from the one nearby
D MajorD G+G
I still wonder where you are
(G+G)
Cause I know the old you and you know the old me
D MajorD
I was certain that Id find her in the back of the diner
B minorBm
In a crowd full of nicotine
(B minorBm) A augmentedA G+G
In a teenage memory that I hold to eternity
(G+G) D MajorD
Cause the future aint coming for it
(D MajorD)
Yeah we were both lookers
B minorBm A augmentedA
Shine the light on jersey girls
D MajorD G+G
they were always total heart breakers
B minorBm A augmentedA
Truly from the one nearby
D MajorD G+G
I still wonder where you are
B minorBm A augmentedA
Oh shine the light on jersey girls
D MajorD G+G
they were always total heart breakers
B minorBm A augmentedA
Truly from the one nearby
D MajorD G+G
I still wonder where you are
(G+G)
Cause I know the old you and you know the old me when we were both lookers
B minorBm G+G x2
[Indecipherable lyrics, will update them later]
D MajorD A augmentedA
Shine the light on jersey girls
B minorBm G+G
they were always total heart breakers
D MajorD A augmentedA
Truly from the one nearby
B minorBm G+G
I still wonder where you are
D MajorD A augmentedA
Oh shine the light on jersey girls
B minorBm G+G
they were always total heart breakers
D MajorD A augmentedA
Truly from the one nearby
B minorBm G+G
I still wonder where you are
(G+G)
Cause I know the old you and you know the old me when we were both lookers
