[Verse]
CWe still chase dead Empresidents
EmI tried to get some Dsleep on the flight
EmBut then this thought, it Dcrawled in my mind
EmIt's ironic that GObama's alive
But we still C7chase dead presidents
EmA businessman that can't Dfind the time
EmForgets to call his Ddaughter at night
EmIronic we can Gall run from life
But we still C7chase dead presidentsEm  D  
GOh, no matter what we do, we do
GOh, no matter what we do, we do
EmWe still chase dead
EmWe still Cchase dead Gpresidents
EmThese magazines, they Dblind and they lie
EmWhile politicians plan Din the night
EmIronic that they say G"Vote or Die"
But we still C7chase dead presidents
EmA father thinks that Dmoney is love
EmThis man, he sees Dhimself in his son
EmIronic that we Gdie to stay young
But we still C7chase dead presidentsEm  D  
GOh, no matter what we do, we do
GOh, no matter what we do, we do
EmWe still chase dead
EmWe still Cchase dead Gpresidents
DDon't want these Gpresidents to represent me
DDon't want these Gpresidents to represent me
DDon't want these Gpresidents to represent me
DDon't want these dead fucking Gpresidents to represent me
N.C.
Don't want these presidents to rep...
