Chorus:

I don't know the exact chords she uses for the chorus but C, F and G bar chords in that order sound good

        C           F           G
Well, I look at the stars and I know you're under them
I look at the books and things people are reading
I know that you've written them, too
You've got so many little things to do
But then I look at my life and I know you've forgotten      x2
The promise you made to me I think that's rotten
I'm hopelessly lost and there's hardly a sound anymore
Coming through that can show me around
'Cause I'm endlessly, endlessly searching the crowd
Looking for something from you
Just one fucking measly clue
Any shitty little tip-off would do
But I'm just an ant in Alaska to you

G           C       F         C        F        C        F       C
I'm just an ant in alaska, an ant in alaska, an ant in alaska to you
