"Get well, but don't you try too hard"

C
The lessons unlearned

C                              G
Oh, this meeting is adjourned

          Am
Oh, these Western concerns

Am                                     G/C
Hold my place in line while I get your turn

C                            Am
To the empty balconies we serenade

Am                                               G/C
All the playgrounds where them kids don't get to play

C                                     Am
Dirty parkies went and chased them all away

To the game consoles to fatten

The best room they have

Is the last room you want

The bathroom's outside

Am
Police tape is tied

G       C
To the doorknobs for rooms

Nine through thirty-two

All these Western concerns

We beg while we chew

      F                          G                             Am
These Western concerns are all I ever really learned to be concerned with

Am                                 F
But don't you, don't you know it's hard

        Dm              Am
Feeling tired every time that you try?

          F           Dm            Am
Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time?

                                       C
The family living upstairs must have a fleet of ride along mowers

          Am
While the novelist to my right's convinced that every woman's a whore

G      C
But he bothers me time and again

C                                                  Am
To set him up with my very best friends and I say, "What?!"

Am
Says he doesn't restate but he will not shut up!

Am                                  F
Well don't you, don't you know it's hard

        Dm                          Am
Feeling tired every time that you try?

         F             Dm           Am
Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time?

Am
Don't you, don't you know

F
I'm going to bury

G                          C
My head in the woods right now

F
Scan for some mycelium

G                          C
And bring a little back to town

Am                                  F
Well don't you, don't you know it's hard (I'm going to bury)

         G          Am
Feeling tired every time that you try? (My head in the woods right now)

         F             Dm           Am
Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time? (Scan for some mycelium and bring a little back to town)

  C
Go reckless, unharmed

Yep, the shut-ins, they're well armed

         Am
Well, we all led the charge

Am                               G
'Til we ran aground in our party barge

C
Every little gift was just one more part of their grift

              Am
Oh, yeah, we know it

Am
Oh, yeah, we know it

    C
The best news that we got

C
Was some dumb hokum we'd all bought

           Am
Oh, though reckless, feeling great

Am
We're the sexiest of all primates

          C
Let's let loose with our charms

C
Shake our ass and wave our arms

           Am
All going apeshit
