Chords

[Verse 1]

C     Bb6    Gm
I've been thinking about when I was

Em
trying to be your friend

    Dm6
I thought it was then, but it wasn't, it wasn't genuine

C                Bb6
I was just so furious but I couldn't

Gm
show you

                        Em
'Cause I know you and I know what you can do

                  Dm6
And I don't wanna war with you, I won't afford it

You get sore even when you win [Verse 2]

C                              Bb6
And you maim when you're on offense

                              Gm
But you kill when you're on defense

                            Em
And you've got them all convinced

                               Dm6
That you're the means and the end

All the VIPs and PYTs and wannabes Afraid of not being your friend [Verse 3]

C                         Bb6
And I've always been too smart for that

                       Gm
But you know what? My heart was not

                  Em
I took it like a kid, you see

                            Dm6
The cool kids voted to get rid of me

And I'm ashamed of what they did to me What I let get done It stole my fun, it stole my fun [Chorus 1]

 C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters

[Post-Chorus]

 C   Bb6         Gm     Em
He sings so nice,   I guess he tries (I've been thinking about when I was trying to be your friend)

      Dm6
(I thought it was then, but it wasn't, it wasn't genuine)

[Chorus 2]

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)

 C
Whatever happens, whatever happens (Whatever happens)

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters

[Verse 4]

C                Bb6
While I had not yet found my bearings

      Gm                 Em
Those it girls hit the ground

               Dm6
Comparing the way I was to the way she was

Sayin' I'm not stylish enough and I cry too much

                      C
And I listened because I hadn't found

   Bb6
my own voice yet

    Gm                       Em
So all I could hear was the noise that

Dm6
People make when they don't know shit

But I didn't know that yet [Verse 5]

C                            Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill

Gm                              Em
When they came around I would stand real still

Dm6
A girl can roll her eyes at me and kill

Dm6
I got the idea I wasn't real

C                 Bb6        Gm
I thought being blacklisted would be

               Em
grist for the mill

Dm6
Until I realized I'm still here (I'm still here)

C                            Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill

Gm                              Em
Shoes that were not made for running up that hill

Dm6
And I need to run up that hill, I need to run up that hill

I will, I will, I will, I will, I will [Chorus 2]

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens

C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)

C
Whatever happens, whatever happens

[Outro]

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters (I will, I will)

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters

C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters

C
Whatever happens, whatever happens

C
Whatever happens, whatever happens

C
Fetch the bolt cutters (Whatever happens, whatever happens), fetch the bolt cutters
