Chords

[Verse 1]
A                               F#m
I think I've forgotten how to cry

                          D
And it's not for lack of trying
Many busy hours
E
Sitting on my bed just thinking

A                                      F#m
Sad shit to make tears spring from my eyes

                       D
I think I'm due for catharsis
At the very least
  E
I wish god would stop laughing at me
[Bridge] A F#m D E (x2) [Verse 2]
A                                F#m
There's a lot of feelings in my head

                     D
Hey popping pills is fine if doctors tell you to

    E
Now everything's too loud and quiet

A                            F#m
Lord I feel alive and I feel dead

                    D
Oh life's a contradiction
And isn't it so funny
E
Mixing shit with milk and honey
[Chorus 1]
D
Mothers come and watch your daughters

E
Dying at your feet

                A
They're pumping joy into their veins

            F#m
And leaving needles in the street

              D
And there's a sharp pain in my chest

              E
From where my bones have been compressed

       A
Am I a good boy?
[Verse 3]
A                                F#m
There are giant holes in both my shoes

                   D
Maybe I'm too sentimental

                          E
But I'd rather wear this fucked up pair
Than break in new ones
A                                   F#m
Winning's far too hard so I'll just lose

                             D
I'm the thing my friends are scared of
But at least now I can
E
Sing my songs a little lower
[Chorus 2]
D                       E
I'm too oppositional to learn how to behave

       A
I'm to scared to be defiant

        F#m
And I'm too far gone to save

        D
And the world is too confusing

         E                            A
From now onward I'll be losing all my progress

D
Mothers come and watch your daughters

E
Tear themselves apart

                 A
They're building bodies out of garbage

     F#m
And explosive works of art

             D
And they are burning off their fingerprints

    E
And making a new start

       A
Am I a good boy?
[Bridge] A F#m D E (x2) D E A F#m [Chorus 3]
        D
I'll be waiting in the courtroom

        E
For the judges to decide

         A
If I'm a good boy
