Wires
The Neighbourhood
Standard Tuning (They tune down, but I changed it so you don't have to.)
No Capo
*In the (live) acoustic version, they do not play the Cm in the verses, they just keep strumming Bb
so take it off if you would like*
[1st Verse]
Gm
We talked about making it
F
I'm sorry that you never made it
Eb Cm
And it pains me to hear you have to say it
Gm
You knew the game and played it
F
It kills me to know that you have been defeated
Eb Cm
I see the wires pulling while you're breathing
Gm F
You knew you had a reason it killed you like diseases
Eb Cm
I could hear it in your voice while you're speaking
Gm F
He can't be treated, Mr.-Know-It-All had his reign and his fall
Eb Cm
At least that is what his brain is telling all
[Chorus]
Gm F
If he said, help me kill the president
Eb Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
Gm F
Sick of screaming let us in
Eb
The wires got the best of him,
Cm
and all that he invested in,
Gm F Eb Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
Gm F Eb Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
[2nd Verse]
Gm
He told me, I should take it in
F
Listen to every word he's speaking
Bb
The wires getting older
Cm
I can hear the way they're creaking
Gm
As their holding him
F
I could see it in his jaw
Bb Cm
that all he ever wanted was a job
Gm
He tells me to be raw
F
admits to every little flaw
Bb Cm
that never let him sit at the top,
Gm
Don't tell me to stop
F
Thinks that I should be a little cautious,
Bb Cm
I can tell the wires were pulled
[Chorus]
Gm F
If he said, help me kill the president
Bb Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
Gm F
Sick of screaming let us in
Bb
The wires got the best of him,
Cm
and all that he invested in,
Gm F Bb Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
Gm F Bb Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
[Bridge]
Gm
I've been having trouble in believing
F
I just started seeing,
Bb
light at the beginning of the tunnel
Cm
But he tells me that I'm dreaming,
Gm
When he talks I hear his ghosts
F
Every word they say to me,
Bb Cm
I just pray the wires aren't coming
[Chorus]
Gm F
If he said, help me kill the president
Bb Cm
I'd say he needs medicine,
Gm F
Sick of screaming let us in
Bb
The wires got the best of him,
Cm
and all that he invested in,
Gm F Bb Cm
goes Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
Gm F Bb Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
Gm F Bb Cm
Straight to hell, Straight to hell, (oh oh oh woah oh oh)
Gm F Bb Cm
Straight to hell, straight to hell
