Chords

[Verse 1]
     C          D            Em            G
And irony is okay, I suppose, culture is to blame

      C                D         Em              G
You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way

             C               D
You lack substance when you say

            Em               G
Something like, "Oh, what a shame"

             C                D              Em            G
It's just a self-referential way that stops you having to be human

      C               D              Em              G
I'm assuming you'll balloon when you remove the dirty spoon

              C            D           Em           G
And start consuming like a human, that's what I am assuming
[Pre-Chorus]
    C          D        Em           G
I'm sure that you're not just another girl

    C         D          Em              G
I'm sure that you're gonna say that I was sexist

  C         D            Em              G
I feel like you're running out of all the things

C     D  Em
I liked you for
[Chorus]
G                C                     D
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?

                 Em                        G
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other

                      C                             D
Instead of calling me out, you should be pulling me in

     Em                 G
I've just got one more thing to say
[Instrumental] C D Em G C D Em G [Verse 2]
    C               D
And why would you believe

             Em                   G
You could control how you're perceived

             C                   D
When at your best you're intermediately

Em                   G
Versed in your own feelings?

        C               D
Keep on putting off conceiving

          Em                 G
It's only you that you're deceiving

          C                   D                    Em
Oh, don't have a child, don't cramp your style, I'll leave it
[Chorus]
G                C                     D
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?

                 Em                        G
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other

                      C                             D
Instead of calling me out, you should be pulling me in

     Em                 G
I've just got one more thing to say
[Outro]
     C                 D              Em
I'm just pissed off because you pied me off

           G                   C
After your show when you let go of my hand

D              Em                  G
In front of some sket who wanted to bitch
C D Em G C D Em G
