[Verse 1]
Em F G I make myself a promise C D Then break it every night Em C Em I'm feeling loose and life don't make no sense C I use my brains to build a fence G D 'Round the claim I stake C Em F I take the drugs but the drugs won't take
[Verse 2]
G C Em F G I took a pledge to grow up G C D Then drank enough to make me throw up Em C Em On all my dearly disappointed friends C I'm just too lazy to make amends G D With you anyway C Em F That's why the pattern still remains
[Chorus]
G Am Em There's a half a million things that I'm supposed to be Em D A shelter in the nighttime G A punk running free G Am Em And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar D And if I try hard C G I find something I can really drop into Em D And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing C G 'Cause everything is something next to nothing Em D G As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free
[Verse 3]
G C Em F G Another candle to blow out G C D New set of dark thoughts to shut out Em C Em And everybody's got their remedies C But nothing works like chemistry G D So raise a toast C Em F No more sipping from the fire hose
[Chorus]
G Am Em There's a half a million things that I'm supposed to be Em D A shelter in the nighttime G A punk running free G Am Em And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar D And if I try hard C G I find something I can really drop into Em D And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing C G 'Cause everything is something next to nothing Em D As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free
[Break]
G Am Em D Ooh ooh ooh, la la la, la la la la la G Am Em D Ooh ooh ooh, la la la, la la la la la
[Chorus]
G Am Em There's half a million things that you're supposed to be Em D A virgin in the moonlight G A freak on the scene G Am Em And when it gets too deep you reach for your guitar D And if you try hard G Am Em There's a half a million things that I'm supposed to be Em D A shelter in the nighttime G A punk running free G Am Em And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar D And if I try hard G Am Em There's a half a million things that I'm supposed to be Em D A shelter in the nighttime G A punk running free G Am Em And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar D And if I try hard
