Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Key: Db Difficulty: Novice 🏷Legend: C: x32010 F: 133211 G: 320003 Verse 1: C I ride the brake until the top of the hill C You're asking me to swallow a pill F That is bigger than my body C It's bigger than my will C We crash against the radio waves C They infiltrate and feast on our brains F I pump my inner ear with silence C But that only makes things worse F I soak my eyeballs deep in violence G But then my heart begins to hurt
Refrain: F Oh well - irony, ironically C G Becomes the standard recipe for normalcy F Who discovered what and how much longer C G til it's cool again is all lost on me N.C. (This is not a democracy, this is a legacy) Verse 2: C Well I might ride my bicycle around C I passed out near the old playground F And woke up to some kids C Sticking safety pins in my head C I shook em off and I fought with their moms C They made some accusations and then called the cops F I tried to ride away but then they maced me C And old man Jimmy left me for dead G F C I woke up in the morning feeling ornery and I did it again Guitar solo: C F C G F C Verse 3: C The pencil dances in the palms of my hands C The naked page patiently waits for inspiration F But it's wasted once again C And it's judging me so hard C My Uncle Stacy is a magical man C He lives alone out in the desert F Eating cactus, making potions out of sand C And he sends them to my mom Verse 4: C Well I might ride my bicycle around C I passed out near the old playground F And woke up to the kiss C Of an interdimensional being on my lips C I shook it off and then reached in my pocket C It screamed something in Latin as I pulled the top off F C Uncle Stacy's potion; it exploded and sucked it straight into the abyss G F C Thanks to Uncle Stacy, I'll be riding in the morning again
