Chords

[Intro] D Dmaj7/C# D6/B D/A G Bm/F# Em A [Chorus]
 D
[tab]      Dmaj7/C#
And I walk the empty hallways

 D6/B
I walk alone

 D/A
Alone as always

        Gmaj7
There's so many lucky pennies

 Bm/F#
Lying on the floor

              Emadd9
But where the hell are all the lucky people

       Asus4        A
I can't see them anymore
[Verse 1]
  D                     Dmaj7/C#
And there's such a nasty smell

          D6/B
In the bathroom

      D/A
The people float by

            Gmaj7
While the toilets are flushing

            Bm/F#                                   Emadd9
And there's all this shit written on the bathroom wall
With a leaky pen
   Asus4
And Lisa loves Jason

      A
Oh, Jason loves Ben
[Verse 2]
(A#dim)  Bm
        And a letter from Michigan

    Bm7/A
Is sitting on my desk

       Gmaj7
And I remember one thought

       Em/F#         Edim/A#
But I forget all the rest

       Bm
And the ice cream is melted

     Bm/A
And dripping down my neck

       Gmaj7                    Bm/F#
And my bottles standing on the edge of the table

       Em                         D Dmaj7/C#
And I think it's in the mood to break

        D6/B D/A
Me, just break

     Gmaj7 Bm/F# Em Asus4 A
Me, just, just      break me
[Verse 3]
 D                  Dmaj7/C#
I messed myself up again
Nobody really cares
 D6/B                         D/A
I wish I could just have some time
To play with my old teddy bear
     Gmaj7
And maybe I could go

    Bm/F#
To teddy bear heaven

  Emadd9
Just like her

                  Asus4                A
Because well, she went when she was eleven
[Verse 4]
D
But I stayed late

                 Dmaj7/C#
Because I can't understand physics

 D6/B
I don't want to go home

     D/A
And cook myself dinner

     Gmaj7
Or look in the mirror

      Bm/F#
That big, fat mirror

         Emadd9
That swallows me up in a corridor

             Asus4     A
Oh, just swallows me whole
[Bridge]
(A#dim) Bm
  And cha-ching goes a robber

     Bm7/A
And cha-ching goes the gun

     Gmaj7
And cha-ching goes the bittersweet

     Em/F#   Edim/A#
Judgmental nun

    Bm
Cha-ching goes the gun

    Bm7/A
And cha-ching goes the purse

    Gmaj7
And cha-ching goes the over-fucked

    Em/F#  Edim/A#
Registered nurse

         D Dmaj7/C# D6/B D/A
Me, just nurse

    Gmaj7 Bm/F# Em Asus4 A
Me, just, just     nurse me
[Chorus]
D
School is out

      Dmaj7/C#
And I walk the empty hallways

 D6/B
I walk alone

 D/A
Alone as always

        Gmaj7
There's so many lucky pennies

 Bm/F#
Lying on the floor

              Emadd9
But where the hell are all the lucky people

          Em/F#             Em/G
Where the hell are all the lucky people

         A/C#
I can't see them

  D Dmaj7/C# D6/B D/A D
Anymore
