Chords

[Intro] D Em Bm Bm D Em Bm Bm [Verse 1]
D         Em             Bm
It's the sociopaths that scare me

D       Em         Bm
Not the fall of my local bank

D                Em         Bm
At least they're only burning money

                  A                            Bm     G
And they won't be laughing as they're chopping off my hands
[Pre-Chorus]
D             Em               Bm
One day, I'll learn how to box clever

D             Em               Bm
And beat the past back in its place

D              Em                  Bm
I'll never get rid of this false endeavour

                  A                  Bm     G
But I'll wipe the grin off its dirty little face

                  A                  Bm     G
Oh, I'll wipe the grin off its dirty little face
[Chorus]
G                            Bm
Why wait 'til the summertime

Em
Just to say goodbye?

Bm          A
You're so infuriating

G
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

G                            Bm
Why wait 'til the summertime

Em
To hand me a P45?

Bm           A
Was I that infuriating?

G
Was I that infuriating?
[Post-Chorus]
    Bm           A     G
God knows that I don't hate you

        Bm          A     G
But one day, I must learn how to

        Bm         A          G
And the next, I'll learn exactly how to put up a fight.
[Instrumental] D Em Bm Bm D Em Bm A [Verse 2]
D            Em              Bm
It's not the Illuminati that scares me

D                  Em              Bm
It's the people further down in the ranks

D                  Em                    Bm
The creatures like you that are so controlling

             A                       Bm     G
As to lead a God-fearing boy out the devil's pack

                     A                       Bm     G
Why would you lead a God-fearing boy out the devil's pack?
[Chorus]
G                            Bm
Why wait 'til the summertime

Em
Just to say goodbye?

Bm          A
You're so infuriating

G
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

G                            Bm
Why wait 'til the summertime

Em
To deflate my legal high?

Bm           A
Was I that infuriating?

G
Was I that infuriating?
[Instrumental] D G Bm D G Bm [Pre-Chorus]
D             Em               Bm
One day, I'll learn how to box clever

D         Em               Bm
And beat the wrongdoers away

D             Em               Bm
I'll wear no mask or tight polyester

                     A                        Bm          G
But you can rest assured, I'll be on a little-caped crusade

                     A                        Bm          G
Oh, you can rest assured, I'll be on my little-caped crusade
[Chorus]

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh,

Bm            A             G
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh,
[Post-Chorus]
    Bm           A     G
God knows that I don't hate you
