I wasn't sure about the name of one chord so here's the diagram for it
F#madd 2x021x which is finger picked
Am G F you wrestle yourself to the ground Dm C G you springboard and kick yourself in the mouth F C G Am cause all of that drama, that embarrassed charade Dm G couldn't stop you or settle you down Am G F so you got back with your black hole Dm C G and you don't care who's out there or who knows F C cause you're spent and you're sad G Am cause you've bronzed it, it's your badge Dm G and you've fixed it to all your clothes F every t-shirt and overcoat
F#madd
so it's with you through hot or cold
Dm C G but i would tear it from the cloth Dm C Am F yeah, i would tear it from the cloth G C grow up and knock it off
cause there's a world awake outside
with injustice and music and july, july
with history's arc,
with your family,
with art.
but it don't mean nothing
not to you, not tonight
you can't see past the length of your nose
the biggest problems, well you're sure they're your own
that girl you cut loose
those two friends that cursed you
and all that powder that you can't leave alone
and you say, you know, you know, you know
but i know that you don't, you don't, you don't
cause if you did, you'd really try
if you did, you'd really try to let all that die
[ break ]
C, G, Am, Em, F x4 (on last circle C ,G, Am, Em, F, Fm)
so marry yourself to your work
and crowd your confusion with words
then round out your life with some records you like
while you bury your love in the dirt
cause it's endless, the ditch you can dig
you're stubborn, and you're prideful, and you're all over it
so i suggest you make sense of the time you've got left
so you don't end up back where you've been
F
and you say you won't, you won't, you won't Fmadd
and i hope that you don't, you don't, you don't
Dm C G but if you mean it, then stand up and fight Dm C Am F but if you mean it, then stand up and fight G C G, Am, Em , F i mean, it's only your life C i mean it's only your life G to fix or ruin Am Em F to figure what to do with C it's only your life G to fix or ruin Am Em F cause no one else is going to do it C cause it's only your life
Am, G, F
