Jimmy Eat World - My Best Theory
Standard Tuning
       EmG D A
Intro:       
Em           G          D
 It's been a long time, so long
             A
There's only one life I know (I know)
Em            G
 But I have my own mind
      D           A
I'll say so if it seems right
       Em
(Hey rush out)
           G                   D
I see your warm face with the soft mouth
       A                        Em
But it speaks something else (else)
              G               D
I'll take my chances with the cast down
       A
We can feel the air
Chorus:
Em            G
Rush out, out from the center
D                    A
Not like one side is any better
Em          G
Stand up as they've been preaching
D                  A
My best theory is already in me
      Em
(already in me) In me
Em  G  D  A
(We can feel, we can feel the air
Em
Rush out)
        G
So many questions
         D           A
And the answers come back unanswered (unanswered)
Em               G
 Let's hold the old script
       D
It's a new twist
        A
You can feel the air
Chorus:
Em            G
Rush out, out from the center
D                    A
Not like one side is any better
Em          G
Stand up as they've been preaching
D                  A
My best theory is already in me
      Em
(already in me)
Bridge:
     Em
In a lonely real place
G                         C
 Neither part nor mistake
                            B
Not what you had with your time
Em                   G               C
 My doubt seems fine, my true desire
                 B/Eb
My threat, my appetite
      EmG EmB EbEm
Solo:         /
My true desire
I feel the air!
Chorus:
Em            G
Rush out, out from the center
D                    A
Not like one side is any better
Em          G
Stand up as they've been preaching
D                  A
My best theory is already in me
Chorus:
Em            G
Rush out, out from the center
D                    A
Not like one side is any better
Em          G
Stand up as they've been preaching
D                  A
My best theory is already in me
        Em
(In me)
