Intro:

G+G Dadd4/F# Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9
G+G Dadd4/F# Dsus2Dsus2 D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9

Verse 1:
G+G         D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9
I can only sing it loud
    D/F#D/F#       G+G
Always try to sing it clear
     D/F#D/F#       Cadd9Cadd9   D/F#D/F#
What the hell are we all doing here?

Verse 2:
    G+G      D/F#D/F#
Making too much of nothing
   Cadd9Cadd9 D/F#D/F#    G+G
Or creating one unholy mess
      D/F#D/F#    Cadd9Cadd9   D/F#D/F#
An unfair study in survival
I guess


Pre-Chorus:
    E minorEm  A minorAm
But it always comes down
      G+G
To what to do
        D/F#D/F#
When it's all around you


Chorus:
     G+G     Dadd4/F# D/F#D/F#
And this tightwire act
      Cadd9Cadd9   G+G          D/F#D/F#
Leaving us here for dead to news of the world
  Cadd9Cadd9  D/F#D/F#   G+G
And liquor piles up ahead
     D/F#D/F#        Cadd9Cadd9
Dodging those with words of power
  D/F#D/F#      G+G
Forever on their breath
         Dadd4/F#    A minorAm
When the quality of life gets tripped up
        C majorC
And strangled like death
            D/F#D/F#      C majorC
It seems it's getting harder out there
          A minorAm      G+G
Especially without time enough to see

Solo:
Dadd4/F# D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9
G+G Dadd4/F# D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9
G+G

Verse 3:
    D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9    D/F#D/F#   G+G
True to life  is another hangover
G+G    D/F#D/F#       Cadd9Cadd9    D/F#D/F# G+G
True to life is more and more politics
G+G    D/F#D/F#      Cadd9Cadd9          D/F#D/F#  G+G
True to life is always having to look over your shoulder
G+G    D/F#D/F#    Cadd9Cadd9    D/F#D/F#
True to life is assembly-line sickness


Pre-Chorus:
    E minorEm  A minorAm
But it always comes down
      G+G
To what to do
        D/F#D/F#
When it's all around you


Chorus:
     G+G     Dadd4/F# D/F#D/F#
And this tightwire act
      Cadd9Cadd9   G+G          D/F#D/F#
Leaving us here for dead to news of the world
  Cadd9Cadd9  D/F#D/F#   G+G
And liquor piles up ahead
     D/F#D/F#        Cadd9Cadd9
Dodging those with words of power
  D/F#D/F#      G+G
Forever on their breath
         Dadd4/F#    A minorAm
When the quality of life gets tripped up
        C majorC
And strangled like death
            D/F#D/F#      C majorC
It seems it's getting harder out there
          A minorAm      G+G
Especially without time enough to see
