Amen chords by Jeff Rosenstock

Guitar chords with lyrics

Jeff Rosenstock's song "Amen" from his album "I Look Like Shit"

E
Waiting to go to school on some suburban road
A                       F#
They took my backpack and emptied it in the snow
E                                           E           Dbm     A
The kids at the bus stop screamed nothing.


E
I saw an old lady one time on Astor Place
A                       F#
steal an old man's glasses and punch him in the face
E                                      E                Dbm     A
Me and the others screamed nothing.

A
And what's the difference if the bombs fall from the sky
E                            Abm                Dbm  Abm
And what's the difference if you like being alive
A                               B                       E
Yeah what's the difference, 'cause we're all just gonna die.


E
A crucifix and two framed pictures of the pope
A                       F#
I passed them all as I got evicted from my home.
A                       B(once)     E   Dbm     A
My Catholic landlord screamed "Amen."


A
We don't believe in God or spirits in the sky.
E                       Abm     F#m     B
Unless we're desperate and need to justify
A                          B
the shitty things we do so we apologize
Dbm                             E
"Ya gotta get rid of my guilt, God."


A
Before I fled the scene I smeared my shit along the baseboards
E                               Abm
Took the moldy foodstuffs, lined them up along the tile floor
A
Jerked off on the window screen, fridge open and toilet running
E                         Abm           F#m     D
Barely felt reprieve before the deluge of regret came flooding


A
Now I can't get to sleep because I have this useless conscience.
E                                Abm
And I can't get revenge due to this stupid moral compass.
A                             B                                E
And honestly I feel that all these feelings aren't worth it in the end.

   (interlude; listen for chord changes, I tried to make it make sense):
E          F# B A
F#m             E
B               E
E          F# B A
F#              A
B               E

A
We don't believe in God or spirits in the sky
E                       Ab               F#   F#m
Unless we're desperate or know someone who died.
A                       B
We gain perspective and we start to change our lives
Dbm                           A
Then still do shitty things when the moment arrives.
A
So what's the difference if the bombs fall from the sky
E                          Abm              F#   B
So what's the difference if you like being alive
A                            B
Yeah what's the fucking point of thinking as you die
Dbm
"Ya gotta forgive all my sins, God."

   (end; listen for changes and shit):
E   Dbm   A     E      Abm    A    B  Ab  E    Dbm    A      E      Ab    A


I used 'b' for flat because that's what I typed, and 'm' is minor
it's probably not perfect by any means but this is what was on "chordify." I kind of like playing an F#7
instead of the F# just because I like the chord but what do I know.
