[Intro pt. 1] | G | G C | | G | % | [Intro pt. 2] (Guitar solo) | G | D | C | D C | (x2) [Verse 1] (Mute your strums a little, and lift them up a little as you get closer to each chord change; It's like a slight crescendo on each line)

G                                                     D
Back in school they never taught us what we needed to know,

                                                        C
like how to deal with despair, or someone breaking your heart.

                                                 D                  C
For twelve years I've held it all together but a night like this is begging 

           G
to pull me apart.

I played it quiet, left you deep in conversation.

  D
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen.

  C
I remember I kept thinking that I know you never would,

          D                            C
and now I know I want to kill you like only a best friend could.

[Chorus 1]

G                        C
Everyone's caught on to everything you do

G                    C
Everyone's caught on to.

[Verse 2] (Same thing as Verse 1, slight crescendos)

G                                           D
As if this happening wasn't enough I got to go

and write a song just to remind myself how bad it sucked.

C
Ignore the sun, the cover's over my head.

          D                                C
I wrote a message on my pillow that says, "Jesse, stay asleep in bed."

G                                        D
So don't apologize. I hope you choke and die.

Search your cell for something with which to hang yourself.

C
They say you need to pray if you want to go to heaven

               D                               C
but they don't tell you what to say when your whole life has gone to hell.

[Chorus 2]

G                       C
Everyone's caught on to everything you do

G                    C
Everyone's caught on to

    G                       C
And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again.)

G                    C
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

[Interlude] (Chill, Straight Whole Strums; I like to hum here, but its up to you) | G | Em | D | Csus2 | | G | Csus2 | Em | Csus2 | [Bridge Pt. 1] (Still pretty chill, Whole strums)

        G
So, is that what you call a getaway?

Em
Tell me what you got away with.

            D                           G
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.

     C
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.

G
Have another drink and drive yourself home.

Em
I hope there's ice on all the roads.

            D
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,

G     C
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

[Bridge Pt. 2] (Goes to Arpeggios here, and they lose the funny vocal affect)

        G
And is that what you call tact?

          Em
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.

         D                            G     Csus2
So let's end this call, and end this conversation.

       G
and is that what you call a getaway?

Em
well tell me what you got away with.

          D
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed 

G        Csus2
when you say best friends means friends forever

[Bridge pt. 3] (LOUD)

        G
So, is that what you call a getaway?

Em
Well tell me what you got away with.

           D
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.

     C
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.

G
Have another drink and drive yourself home.

Em
I hope there's ice on all the roads.

        D      
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,

    C
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

[Chorus 3/Out-Chorus] (Go Crazy)

G                        C
Everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)

G                    C
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

    G                       C
And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)

G                    C                    N.C.
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)
