Chords

From the album "Kerplunk" (1991) [Intro] A G x4 [Verse 1]
N.C.   A             G                A
Now it seems I can't keep my mind off of you

   A                    G                   E
My brain drifts back to better days we've been through

     A               G              A
Like sitting on blacktop of the school grounds

    A               G            E
The love I bitched about I finally found
[Chorus]
    D        A          G        F#m
But now it's gone and I take the blame

           D             E                A     N.C.
So there's nothing I can do but take the pain... why?
A G x2 [Verse 2]
N.C.  A             G           A
Now I dwell on what you remind me of

  A                    G           E
A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love

    A           G             A
As for me, I am blind without a cause

    A        G             E
And now I realize what I have lost
[Chorus]
       D         A           G        F#m
It was something real that I could've had

      D                   E                   A    N.C.
Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad... why?
A G x4 [Bridge]
A                    G                  E
  Tell me, well, the words i might have said

A                         G              E
  That's pumping pressure deep inside my head

A             G               E
  Was it bad enough to be too late?

A                  G                  E
  Just tell me the words I might have ate

    G                  E
The words I might have ate

    G                  E
The words I might have ate
A G x4 [Chorus]
N.C. D        A          G        F#m
 But now it's gone and I take the blame

           D             E                A     N.C.
So there's nothing I can do but take the pain... why?
A G
A   G
Why?

A   G
Why?

A   G
Why?  Oh...

A   G
Why?

A   G
Why?

A   G
Why?
A G [Outro] A G x4
