Rat A Tat

• Am

Capo 3

Courtney Love Intro
Am C x2

Verse 1
Am
Are you ready for another bad poem?
Am
One more off key anthem
Am                    Dm
Let your teeth sink in
                 F
Remember me as I was not as I am
Am
And I said "I'll check in tomorrow if I don't wake up dead,"
Dm                                               F
I kept wishing she had blonde ambition and she'd let it go to my head



Pre-Chorus
F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
Am
If my love is a weapon
Am
There's no second guessing when I say
F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
G
If my heart is a grenade
G
You pull the pin and say:



Chorus
C
We're all fighting growing old
G
We're all fighting growing old
   Am   F
In the hopes
     Am          F
Of a few minutes more
C                     
To get on St. Peter's list
G                          Am        F
But you need to lower your standards
         Am       
Cause it's never
F
Getting any better than this


Courtney Love's Part
Am C (x2)


Verse 2
Am
I'm about to make the sweat roll backwards
Am
And your heart beat in reverse
Am
Our guts can't be reworked
Dm
As alone as a little white church
F
In the middle of the desert getting burned
         Am
But I'll take your heart served up two ways
Am
I sing a bitter song
Dm
I'm the lonelier version of you  
       F
I just don't know where it went wrong


Pre-Chorus
F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
Am
If my love is a weapon
Am
There's no second guessing when I say
F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
G
If my heart is a grenade
G
You pull the pin and say:


Chorus
C
We're all fighting growing old
G
We're all fighting growing old
   Am   F
In the hopes
     Am          F
Of a few minutes more
C                     
To get on St. Peter's list
G                          Am        F
But you need to lower your standards
         Am       
Cause it's never
F
Getting any better than this


Interlude x2
Am
Rat a tat tat
Am
Rat a tat tat tat hey
Am
It's never
Am
Getting any better than this

F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
F
It's never
F
Getting any better than this


Courtney Love Bridge (* =hold)
C*
She's sick and she's wrong
She's young dirty blonde
G*
And you sink inside her like a suicide bomb
Am*
He says "I've seen bigger"
She says "I've lit better"
F*
And they throw the matches down into the glitter

C
Not a dry eye left in the house
G
Go boy, go boy, run for your life
Am
Go boy, go boy, run for your life
F
Go boy, go boy, run for your life


Chorus
(N.C.)
We're all fighting growing old
(N.C.)
We're all fighting growing old
   Am   F
In the hopes
     Am          F
Of a few minutes more
C                     
To get on St. Peter's list
G                          Am        F
But you need to lower your standards
         Am       
Cause it's never
F
Getting any better than this


Interlude x2
Am
Rat a tat tat
Am
Rat a tat tat tat hey
Am
It's never
Am
Getting any better than this

F
Rat a tat tat
F
Rat a tat tat tat hey
F
It's never
F
Getting any better than this
