'Cause they dBmidn't wear the right cClothing

Until thBmey get signed. Then you hCate them

GCould you ever Bmwrite what you call Cwrong?
I remeDmber you and I lCistening to Dbands that we Cliked
Only the soDngs mattered to yGouEm
But now you're a CD.J. and Dpreaching that Chype
"Corporate Rock SDucks"
"You knCow, college Dradio enlightens Gyou"C Bm A G
It's supposed to sGerve as a means to exDpose new bands
Without Emprejudice, but it mBmakes no sense
Safe hCarbor for the Gunderground
'Til the alternCative becomes the Dpopular sound
The bGands are good 'til they Dmake enough cash
To Emeat food and Bmget a pad
Then they've soCld out and their Gmusic's cliché

On a Ammorning
In NoFvember
You were Gblinded by the Csun
FIn your place that makes
You feel so Gsafe from everyone
You're Amtotally
ObFlivious
To Gworld poverCty
Not afFfected by the Emillions
That you Amdon't seeG
Chorus
And so we Ftoast to opportunity
And Ctalk about the weather
AlthougGh we never look each other Amin the Geye
We are Fparanoid and out of step
With Cevery word that we just said
We Gall sound fucking crazy
And Eno one can lie down in their own Ambed
Verse 2
In a Ammoment you will Ftell us
Of your Gown personal Chell
I'm Fstarting to beDmlieve that everyGone is for themEselves
We really Amdon't have an Feternity to Gmake our dreams come Ctrue
But Fthinking for toEmorrow isn't in AmyouG
Chorus
On my Fway down to the city
I was Clooking out the window
GAt some point you learned to look the Amother Gway
We're Fso desperate it's dangerous
We Cbasically have lost our heads
GResponsible for nothing
E F F,B,A,Em,F,G*,A,G*
Chorus
And so we Flive
Under the Cgarden
Where we can Ghide and not smell the Amdregs of Gearth
Beneath the Fsun C
Of the same Cplanet
Inherit Gwealth inherit AmdirGt
And so we Flive
Under the Cgarden
Where we can Ghide and not smell the Amdregs of Gearth
Beneath the Fsun C
Of the same Cplanet
Inherit Gwealth inherit AmdirGt
And so we Flive
Under the Cgarden
Where we can Ghide and not smell the Amdregs of Gearth

Step to the F#mplate to swing and mC#miss
And it's a AcomplicEated F#mlife
When "how you Blive, is how Dyou die"
F#mLooks like your C#msoul is connEected to a Bwall
A pDhotograph stands by the AbedC#m
F#mOf better tC#mimes, when we crEubled with our sBpine
But lDived the next day...Eand put the Malice away
AThat's when I noticed the dErip
Ignored the F#mline that didn't skC#mip
It seemed the Ablue suEburban F#msky
turned to Bgray, polluDted night
ASo now you sleep inside a spEace
A bed of rF#moses, the torns reC#mplaced
ANo more sEleepless nF#mights
just for Bme , But aDs for you, a Amemory.

G D
Up here sedated in my seat,
Em
Can't wait 'til i can see my feet
C
run away from stupid things i've said
G D
I'll be here a few days from now,
Em D
If we make it this time, I'll clean the stain i've bled
C D G
Our worlds collide in new beginnings
C D Em D
It's an emergency permission to bail out
C D
So when the heart crash lands,
G D/F# Em
What memories will survive?
Am C D G
I thank my black box that i'm alive
- Post-Chorus: G
G D Em
I feel unlucky today, can't wash the panic off my face
C
Didn't learn a thing from the last time
G D
I'ts so selfish to be so confused,
Em D
So close to the edge but far away in mind
C D G
Two days to go until i see you
C D Em D
Looks like they can call off the ambulance down there
C D G D/F# Em
My head is touching down and i've learned to be afraid
Am C D G
I thank my black box that you're the same
G G D D C C G D
- Interlude:
G G D D C C G D
C D G
Our worlds collide in new beginnings

What memories will survive?
Am C D G
I thank my black box that i'm alive
G
I feel unlucky today

I feel unlucky

D A
Monday morning you woke up crying
Bm G D
The outcome of a stupid line oh-oh
A G
Said by some punk-ass on the street
D A
It wasn't me, it wasn't you
Bm G D
It wasn't anybody you knew is it
A G
Your old friend insecurity?
Em A# G D A D
The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born
D A Bm G
- Post-Chorus:
D A
Tuesday night you were in a fight
Bm G D
The same old argument black and white
A G
It's something that's eating your inside
D A
It's not the food, it's not the booze
Bm G D
It isn't anything consumed so is it
A G
becoming a problem you can't hide?
Em A# G D A D
And all those times, you thought that you were wrong - you were right
Chorus:
Bm A D Bm
The devil on your shoulder gives you strength in paranoia
A G
The countless times you called a few
Bm A
Your best friend till the end of time
D
They'll always be there by your side
Bm A G
Solidify conditions you've abused
A# A D
What that means you'll never have a clue
D A Bm G
- Post-Chorus:
D A G G
D A
More than just a life long friend
Bm G D
No social life I guess we can pretend
A G
It's not like I care but anyway
D A
You always wanna leave, you never wanna stay
Bm G D
Cause you think if you drink too much then you will lose it
A G
You'll drink your security away
Em A# G D A D
The one companion that stuck by your side since you were born
Bm A D Bm
The little voice inside your head, annoying and confusing
A G
That somehow tells you what to do
Bm A D
Socially you've lost your mind and basically you're out of time
Bm A G
You try to build so much it breaks on you
A# A D
What that means you'll never have a clue
D A Bm G
- Bridge:
D A G G
A# A
What that means you'll never have a
A# A
What that means you'll never have a

intro: / / / / / /
F#m C#m E B
More times than five, I've been right here by your side
D A C#m
Still wondering.... where did you go?
F#m C#m E B
Walk down the hall, In a mental menacle
D E
Don't want to be 'round , When you take yourself out
A E
But I have more vigor than this
F#m C#m
Step to the plate to swing and miss
A E F#m
And it's a complicated life
B D
When "how you live, is how you die"
F#m C#m E B
Looks like your soul is connected to a wall
D A C#m
A photograph stands by the bed
F#m C#m E B
Of better times, when we crubled with our spine
D E
But lived the next day...and put the Malice away
A E
That's when I noticed the drip
F#m C#m
Ignored the line that didn't skip
A E F#m
It seemed the blue suburban sky
B D
turned to gray, polluted night
A E
So now you sleep inside a space
F#m C#m
A bed of roses, the torns replaced
A E F#m
No more sleepless nights
B D A
just for me , But as for you, a memory.
