[Intro] B7sus2 [Chris]

 B7sus2
Guess what, ever since the world began

                                              Aadd9
Same plot, everyone's been dumping on their fellow man

                            E
Pounding people they feel better than

I hope you're taking notes cause

    B7sus2
You feel everyone deserves a shot

Get real Some of us have got it, girl

     Aadd9
And some got squat

                             E
That's the truth, oh honey, like it or not

I hate to break it to you

C#m7            B/D#
     My daddy taught me

        E                F#sus  F#
You get no where being nice

C#m7              B/D#        E
     So now I'm sharing his advice:

E/F#                     B
The world according to Chris is

F#/A#                      E/G#
Better to strike then get struck

          F#/A#             B
Better to screw then get screwed

         F#/A#               E
You'd probably think it's bizarre

    F#sus2                   B7sus2
But that's the way things are

(Spoken) Sue: But that doesn't mean it has to be that way! What does it cost to be kind? Chris: Ew, what have you done with my best friend? Billy, tell me, am I right, or am I right? [KEY CHANGE FROM] Bmaj7 Emaj7 [Billy]

E7sus2
  I swear

There's a dick in every class Not fair

                                 Dadd9
Each and every time I fail those losers pass

                           A
Hey, everyone of them can kiss my ass

[Chris] N.C. You wonder why I love him [Billy]

E7sus2
  One year, there was this good looking guy

So queer

                            Dadd9
And on top of that he has a wandering eye

One day he looks at me

      A
And, huh, bye-bye

[Chris] N.C. I bet he got the message [Chris and Billy]

F#m7             E/G#                   A                  Bsus2   B
   We're here to tell you how this whole damn freak show works

[Chris and Billy]

F#m7          E/G#                 A
   If you don't listen, then you're jerks!

[All]

B7sus2                     E
 The world according to Chris is

 B/D#                      A/C#
Better to punch than get punched

          B/D#             E
Better to burn than get burned

      B/D#                      A
Learn that and you're gonna go far

       B7sus2
Cause that's the way things are

What was just a joke got out of hand

                             Eb
We kept on screaming til she hit the floor

[Spoken] N.C. Tommy: C'mon, everybody was doing it [Sue]

Bb7sus2

                                Ab(add2)
What came over me was something new

                              Eb
I did things I'd never done before

Cm7          Bb/D

You can tell me to keep my mouth shut

      F/A                  E
But, wanna know what I'd advise?
