Starkid – Nerdy Prudes Must Die - Just For Once (Guitar)

Ruth Fleming (spoken):
No, I haven't seen your grill brush, Maurey!
Ah- Yeah! I used it to brush my hair this morning, can't you tell?
Oh, don't leave me out here with the meat, Maurey!
Medium wh- How can something be Medium and Well, Maurey?
Ugh, Maurey...

G           G7                  C
Saturday we installed a new bay window

                     Bm7
And it was something right, out of a dream,

        E7
I never had

G        G7                C
Saturday belongs to soccer practice

                    Bm7
I pack their little cakes, for after the games,

           E7
they nеver win

    F                          C
And life is full of all of the trappings of thе well-to-do

    F                           C
And life goes on, as I shop for shutters to obstruct the view

    F       C        G
And life is fine, if only it were mine

             A               G         C
But just for once I’d be the center of attention

         A              G               C
Just for once, remember what a life can be

         F               G                 Am
Just for once I feel the light inside, the burning of a candle

       A#   F   G
Living just for once

       A#   F
Living just for-

G             G7                       C
39, I lose my hair under careful chemo treatment

                                 Bm7         E7
And I was not unhappy, about the attention I ensnared

G                  G7
It fucking worked, I’m fucking here, he’s fucking her

    C
I’m disappointed

                            Bm7
There’s still carpet in the bathroom

                                    E7
And of the two, who’s the worse for wear

F                            C
We love our dogs, especially Captain

F                                   C
The pool is out, the neighbors come rushing

F                 C                 G
And the world's a stage when you’re middle of age

             A                  G              C
But just for once my life could be just what I wanted

         A                 G                 C
Just for once I'd feel the spark that I once knew

         F                 G                 Am           Dm
Just for once I’d feel the fight inside, the burning of a candle

          A#              C#dim
Something more than I can handle

         D
Just for once

A#m                     F
Should flip the burgers now

                           G#                           D#
Should I double check it's well done on the outside not within

A#m                         G#
Should I let the coals burn out?

                       G#                            D#
Should I let the years cook my body down in front of him

         A#m
Just for once

         F
Just for once

         G#    D#
Just for once

G                 G7                   C
The other day the Johnsons borrowed my tap shoes

G            G7                    C
Their eldest daughter is beginning tap

G         G7                       C
It was no bother, I never ever use them

          G
I used to dance
