Hold my place in line while I get your turn


Bridge:
C                            Am
To the empty balconies we serenade
Am                                               G/C
All the playgrounds where them kids don't get to play
C                                     Am
Dirty parkies went and chased them all away

To the game consoles to fatten

The best room they have

The bathroom's outside

To the doorknobs for rooms

Nine through thirty-two

All these Western concerns

We beg while we chew

      F                          G                             Am
These Western concerns are all I ever really learned to be concerned with

Chorus:
Am                                 F
But don't you, don't you know it's hard

Feeling tired every time that you try?
          F           Dm            Am
Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time?

                                       C
The family living upstairs must have a fleet of ride along mowers
          Am
While the novelist to my right's convinced that every woman's a whore
G      C
But he bothers me time and again
C                                                  Am
To set him up with my very best friends and I say, "What?!"

Says he doesn't restate but he will not shut up!

Feeling tired every time that you try?

Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time?
Am
Don't you, don't you know

Scan for some mycelium
G                          C
And bring a little back to town

Chorus:
Am                                  F
Well don't you, don't you know it's hard (I'm going to bury)
         G          Am
Feeling tired every time that you try? (My head in the woods right now)

Well, we all led the charge
Am                               G
'Til we ran aground in our party barge
C
Every little gift was just one more part of their grift
              Am
Oh, yeah, we know it
Am
Oh, yeah, we know it

Verse 5:
    C
The best news that we got
C
Was some dumb hokum we'd all bought
           Am
Oh, though reckless, feeling great
Am
We're the sexiest of all primates
          C
Let's let loose with our charms
C
Shake our ass and wave our arms
           Am
All going apeshit
