Chords

(Sounds great with power chords) [Intro] G F x4 Alternatively to sound closer to both guitars at once G F Em F x4 [Verse 1]
G     F           G           F
Press play on the rest of the day

      G      F             C       D
Hurry up and wait for your next scene

G   F
Not great

         G            F
Couldn't keep my face straight

      G                   F
And I know very well that it's

                             C         D
'Show and Don't Tell' on the big screen

                C
When all of the lines you've learned are

Cm                           Am
Bleeding on the cutting room floor

                       D
There's no star on the door
Good God!
            E           G
Who are you making this for?
[Chorus]
G                           A
I spend all day putting out fires

             C     Em
Listening to choirs singing

          C        Cm
The soundtrack blaring

G                                A
And I spend all night cutting up edits

             C         Em     D    C   Cm
Watching the credits to find direction in my existence
G F x4 [Verse 2]
G           F                   G
It's just a story I don’t quite believe

        F                       G
Full of plot holes and constant monotony

               F                        C
Who's going to root for this unlikeable lead?

          D        G
Not them, not me, not likely

F                                  G
Maybe it's something we can fix in post

F                                      G
Or we can get take after take 'til the cows come home

         F                  C
Shut the door, I'm feeling overexposed

D
Now they all know

           C
All of the tears you've cried but

    Cm                              Am
You can't quite make it happen on cue

                     D
The pain never comes through
Good God!
            E          G
When you're needing it to
[Chorus]
G                           A
I spend all day putting out fires

             C     Em
Listening to choirs singing

          C        Cm
The soundtrack blaring

G                                A
And I spend all night cutting up edits

             C         Em     D    C   Cm
Watching the credits to find direction in my existence
[Bridge] Am B C x2 (Key Change) [Chorus]
A                           B
I spend all day putting out fires

             D      F#m
Listening to choirs singing

    D       Dm
The end is nearing

A                                B
And I spend all night cutting up edits

             D       F#m D E
Watching the credits to find

             D       F#m D E
Watching the credits to find

             D       F#m D E   D  C#m   B    A
Watching the credits to find direction in my existence
