[Intro]
G A F#m
G A F#m
[Verse]
G A F#m I was stoned in a factory working an industrial slicer G A F#m Wondering to myself if life could be anything nicer G Inching step by step A F#m Towards the great American death G I was dreaming 'bout asbestos as best as I can guess A F#m I was itching to confess at the rural festivus
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm Father, Son and Holy Spirit D A Bm You're gonna have to speak up 'cause I can't hear it G A But the tree grew a branch and the branch grew Davidians G A Most of them died in the land of comedians D A Bm G Turns out your mother was part of the slytherin faction D G It's alright that you didn't know A Bdim She never saw all that much of the action
[Chorus]
Bm Well there's promise in the morning G And power in the blood D Folks drink it for the feeling G I just drink it because D G I do what John Denver tells me A Bdim I wanna do right in case anyone fails me Bm Let it be me G And only me D Let it be me G And only me Bm Let it be me G And only me A F#m Who fails me G G A F#m Who fails me
G G A F#m
[Verse]
G A F#m I was a tombstone tragedy working out the kinks in Wisconsin G A F#m In a monastery asking the saints if they come here often G In a van with all of my friends A F#m Where the party that never ends G The liquor's always quicker
I cheat to feel the drums
A F#m Pounding in my head and in my heart and in my thumbs
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm Father, Son and Holy Spirit D A Bm Set the bar so low, that I can clear it G A Well the clearer the mirror the more of the horror G A There's gore on the shore of Sodom and Gomorrah D A There's something endearing Bm G About the fear of anything queer here D G I've seen a lotta folks fold into a mold A Bb Of something that they couldn't steer clear of
[Chorus]
Bm Well there's promise in the morning G And power in the blood D Folks drink it for the feeling G I just drink it because D G I do what John Denver tells me A Bdim I wanna do right in case anyone fails me Bm Let it be me G And only me D Let it be me G And only me Bm Let it be me G And only me A F#m Who fails me G G A F#m Who fails me
G G A F#m
[Verse]
G Hey guys wusssup A F#m I always knew I was gonna seem basic G A F#m In the dagobah system asking folks if they've seen my spaceship G All the Buddhists priests and the Taoist monks A F#m Couldn't have stopped me from being a punk G In a Ford Explorer with a tape recorder A F#m Beating down your door with an eating disorder
[Pre-Chorus]
D A Bm Father Time AND Mother Nature D A Bm Why am I of such small stature G A All I ever wanted was to die young G But I didn't have the guuts A And songs needed sung D A If I could wake up without this feeling Bm G I'd know I was healing D G But every morning when I wake up A Bb I just know that it ain't enough
[Chorus]
Bm Well there's promise in the morning G And power in the blood D Folks drink it for the feeling G I just drink it because D G I do what John Denver tells me A Bdim I wanna do right in case anyone fails me Bm Let it be me G And only me D Let it be me G And only me Bm Let it be me G And only me A F#m Who fails me G G A F#m Who fails me
G G A F#m
