During the bass solo & verses, alternate between E7 and Amaj, using palm
muting. As the song progresses, Trey uses less and less muting, so use your
judgment. (for chords that you don't know, see the chord chart at the end)
Chorus
But [G]who can unlearn all the [A]facts that I've learned
As I [G]sat in their chairs and my [E7]synapses burned
And the [G]torture of chalk dust col[A]lects on my tongue
[G]Thoughts follow my vision and [A]dance in the sun
All my [G]vasoconstrictors they come [A]slowly undone
Can't this [G]wait till I'm old?
(use main riff)
Can't I live while I'm young?
Can't I live while I'm young?
Guitar solo -
