Chords with lyrics

Tuning: EADGBE

Verse 1:
C majorC
Dumbfounded, downtrodden and dejected
F# minorF#m
Crestfallen, grief-stricken and exhausted
G+G
Trapped in my room while the house was burning
A minorAm               D MajorD
To the motherfucking ground

C majorC
I saw the sign but it was misleading
F# minorF#m
I fought the law, but the law was cheating
G+G
Screaming for help, but somebody keeps on
A minorAm              D MajorD
Telling me to settle down

Chorus:
FF     G+G    FF    G+G   C majorC
Please be honest, tell me was it you?

Verse 2:
C majorC
Clerk at the midwestern service station
F# minorF#m
Striped uniform, giggling at catch phrases
G+G           E MajorE
Look in her eyes we're up to something
A minorAm             D MajorD
Oh, it doesn't matter now

C majorC
Man in a crossover with his family
F# minorF#m
Sketched in decals on the window smiling
G+G            E MajorE
Driving parallel in the lane beside me
A minorAm            D MajorD
Oh, it doesn't matter now

Chorus:
FF       G+G    FF    G+G   C majorC
But please be honest, tell me was it you?
FF    G+G     FF   G+G    D MajorD
I won't hate you, I just need to know
FF     G+G    FF    G+G   C majorC
Please be honest, tell me was it you?

Bridge:
FF
At first he thought it was the undertow
D MajorD
But he was dragged to the bottom of the lake
FF
By a couple of kids saying, "it's a joke"
D MajorD
Though he didn't know any of their names
FF
As they held him down, the crowd got loud
D MajorD
And they cheered when they thought he had escaped
FF
When the anchor needed something for the 10 o'clock
D MajorD
What could they say? Oh what else could they say?
G+G                      C majorC
They said "Well, you promised us the stars, and now we're tired and bored"
G+G                      C majorC
"Well, you promised us the stars, and now we're tired and bored"
G+G                      C majorC
