The Obituaries The Menzingers
Tuning: Half-Step Down
There were chords up here in the wrong key, this is how they play it on the album, and I
included tabs at the bottom, enjoy.
INTRO: (w/ lead) C Em Am x2
[C]C [Em]Em [Am]G x2
VERSE:
[C]We stumbled and stared at the [Em]carnival lights that [F]lit up New York [C]City,
From a [F]rooftop in [C]Brooklyn that was [G]covered in bad [Am]graffiti.
[C]And then I let a [Em]thousand splinters [F]pierce right through my [C]spoiled liver,
[F]Or what[C]ever that was left of [G]it.
LEAD PART:
C Em F C F C G x2
VERSE:
[C]'Cause I've cursed my lonely [Em]memory with [F]picture-perfect [C]imagery.
[F]Maybe I'm not [C]dying I'm just [G]living in decaying [Am]cities,
[C]But I'm still healthy, [Em]I'm still fine, [F]I've been spending [C]all my time
[F] rea[C]ding the obitu[G]aries.
INTERLUDE:
C G x3
CHORUS:
[C]But I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[F]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[C]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[F]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
BRIDGE:
[F]'Cause I[C] am the [G]shadow of the [Am]waxwing slain
[F]I felt[C] the [G]false azure from [Am]windowpanes
[F]I am[C] just [G]freaking out, yeah [Am]I'll be fine.[F]
CHORUS:
[C]But I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[F]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[C]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
[F]I will fuck this up, I fucking know it.
End on C
