Chords

Capo: 2 fret

        Alternate or different capo fret positions are easily possible by using the transpose
           button below.
          The chords will automatically adapt to the new capo position.
          Plus 1 means capo fret position one down; minus one means capo one fret up.
          Using the Transpose button can affect the placement of the chords in the line. Small
            movements of the chords on the line are possible (depends on length chord names).
          Example: To play this without capo set the transpose button at +2.
                  Half step down tuning set the transpose button at +3.

Verse 1
C6                      G       B7
  The melatonin doesn't work anymore,
C6                        G
The Valium just stops the hurt,
            B7
But not the cortisol,
C6                        G
   If I can teleport from here,
                B7
I'll choose the Midway Atoll,
C6                                   G
   Or just the space in between your neck,
         B7                  B
Where it meets your shoulder,
C6*           G*
But just this once, (But just this once),
Em          C                C6
I'd like to see the world in three-dimensions.


Verse 2
C6                        G                B7
 Keep wasting 'til you're shed, we keep it simple,
C6                        G                 B7
  The breathing exercises hurt and don't do fuck-all,
C6                            G                   B7
  He said, "The beta-blockers work, but there's a system,
C6                      G                  B7
  The anxiety's not the cause, it's just a symptom".


Verse 3
C6*            G   B7
    But I know you,
C6                     G       B7
  I'll live with you until our bones grow old,
C6                 G          B7
   I'll still pick you like a scab or a mole,
C6          G               B7
   And I'll pull you into a dive or a stall,
C6                  G
   Ain't that miserable?
B7                C6
 Ain't that miserable?
                 G    B7
Ain't that miserable  ooh?


Bridge
C6                       G       B7          C6
   Help, why the fuck do I still    self-sabotage
         G          B7
When I'm finally happy
        C6         G       B7
Oh, oh, ooh, oooh, oooh
C6            G        B7               N.C.
  wa! Wa! Wa! Oh, hey, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah


Verse 4
C6                      G                 B7
   So it turns out everyone just hopes to God you're failing,
C6                                  G
   And if you claim that you eat my words,
               B7
Then take this as a warning,
C6                             G
   Nothing around here fucking works,
                B7
We're just flat-out boring,
C6                            G
  We're all apes with a diary book,
              B7         B7*
And corporate reads your pages.


Outro
N.C.
I've just been doing, like, music and stuff.
