against me Chords

[Intro 1]
[F][Em]

[Verse 1]
I've [Em]been ha[C]bitually
rubbing [F]the sleep from my eyes,
I see the rain does not re[G]spect state [Em]lines,
why [Am]should you?
And [Em]I've [C]seen dirt [F]dry fires arise
by pissing boy [G]fountain [Am]statues
And they [C]say [Em]elect[F]ricity,
[Dm]can trav[F]el up yo[G]ur piss [Em]stream
[Am]

[Verse 2]
Oh [F]am I [G]too concerned with
the [Em]burn [Am]of scrutiny?
Cold chased [F]on run and [G]covered
like a [Em]horse before [Am]the race
Will [Dm]I gain we[Am]ight in la[Em]ter li[Am]fe?
And [Dm]when will [Am]someone [Em]swing [Am]a scythe again[F]st

[Interlude 1]
me?
[F][C]
[Dm][Am][Em][Am][Dm][Am][Em][Am][F]

[Verse 3]
Out of every [C]woman on earth,
who [F]will I mate with?
Or will I spit empty threats, un[Dm]til all that's left,
is a mil[F]lion zeros [G]printed on a [Em]roll of tick[Am]er- tape?
And one last [F]echo of the [G]fi nal
tiny [Em]wave in my [Am]wake?
Will all my [C]unused seed collect like [F]mercury,
in some kind of [G]af ter[Em]life for [Am]halves?
Should [C]I offer u[Dm]p my[F] lats and
[G]pecs as sta[Em]kes in dea[Am]th?

[Verse 4]
[C]Whatever the [G]will of the [Dm]people shall [Am]be,
[F]Ohio and [Am]me

[Verse 5]
But [F]am I too con[G]cerned with
the [Em]burn of scru[Am]tiny?
Cold chased [F]on run and [G]covered
like a [Em]horse before [Am]the race
Will [Dm]I gain we[Am]ight in la[Em]ter li[Am]fe?
And [Dm]when will [Am]someone [Em]swing [Am]a scythe again
[F]st me?

[Interlude 2]

[Dm][Am][Em][Am][Dm][Am][Em][Am][F]

[Verse 6]
Oh I'd [C]rest in peace [F]on a freshly cleaned
and steamed plush [Dm]carpet for sure,
In the [F]va cant third [G]floor of
a de[Em]partment [Am]store
Or be [C]hung with four nails
on the pro[F]jection wall
In an empty con[G]vention
center [Em]banquet hall
[Am]

[Verse 7]
That's right,
[C]I'm like [F]everybody else is
[Dm]Ashamed of [F]sleep,
I [G]lie when a [Em]phone call [Am]wakes me

[Verse 8]
[Am]Oh a[F]m I too conc[G]erned with
the [Em]burn of scru[Am]tiny?
Cold chased [F]on run and [G]covered
like a [Em]horse before [Am]the race
Will [Dm]I gain we[Am]ight in la[Em]ter li[Am]fe?
And [Dm]when will someone [Em]swing a [Am]scythe [F]against
