Verse One:
[G]I am the pain that bleeds through your temples
Every morning when you wake up
[Em]I am the boy with alcohol poisoning
[G]From all the parties Chris would throw
That summer that they took us in
Like every other American
[Em]For getting drunk in back of the Lion's Club
[G]Waiting for the shitty bands to finish up[D]
Then some kids pl[Em]ayed hacky sack [D]
While the others just got h[C]igh
Interlude: G Em G D Em D C
Verse 2:
[G]It's not hard to fall for a waitress
When you both smoke
Smoke the same cigarettes
[Em]You'll get seated as diners lovers
[G]You'll get the check that Scranton's for the better
[D]You'll carve your names into the P[Em]arpat Cliffs
Just read t[D]hem when you get ol[C]d enough to know
That happiness is just a moment
Chorus x2:
So I[G]'m marching up to your ga[C]tes toda[G]y
To [Em]throw my lonely s[C]oul away
'Cause[G] I don't need it
[C]You can ta[G]ke it ba[Em]ck [C]
Bridge:
And t[Am]hey will make exa[C]mples out of [G]us
Like when they ca[D]ught you in the CVS parking[Em] lot
But I f[C]ed the liars, I fed the liars, I fed the liars
[G]Everything I got
[Em]Everything I got
in my [C]cabinet brain
Of ca[G]nned thoughts
Every[G]thing I've got
It was eve[Em]rything I've got
In my cab[C]inet brain, in my cabinet brain
Chorus x2:
So [G]I'm marching up to your g[C]ates tod[G]ay
To [Em]throw my lonely s[C]oul away
'Cause[G] I don't need it
[C]You can ta[G]ke it ba[Em]ck [C]

So I[G]'m marching up to your ga[C]tes toda[G]y
To [Em]throw my lonely s[C]oul aw[G]ay [C] [G]
