C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
I was kinda hoping your tattoos

at least meant something to you
C# minorC#m           A augmentedA
and every time that you find a bruise
     E MajorE
will you think of what you've got to lose

and every time that you hear my voice
   E MajorE
you say I give you the blues
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
well unfortunately there's times in life
E MajorE
baby, where you've gotta choose

I'm sure you know of the danger
            E MajorE
in going home with a stranger

'cause when you don't have me at all
G# minorG#m        A augmentedA    E MajorE
baby, whatcha you gonna do?
   C# minorC#m
Cause I don't think that you can hold
   A augmentedA             E MajorE   A augmentedA  E MajorE
the weight of the world by yourself

you let it crush you

before you shared it with someone else

Verse:

C# minorC#m        A augmentedA
If I came to the bar where you are
    E MajorE              BB
Would you stay or would you leave?
C# minorC#m             A augmentedA
Do you think that you could share the air
  E MajorE          BB
or would you rather not breathe
     E MajorE     C# minorC#m
because everybody knows
       G# minorG#m      A augmentedA    E MajorE
where you'll be when the taverns close
  C# minorC#m           A augmentedA
Is this the life that you chose?
     E MajorE               BB
dodging through while you strike a pose

Pre-Chorus:

A augmentedA                   E MajorE  A augmentedA  E MajorE
How loud do you think we all can get?

I need somebody who doesn't give a shit
