[Intro 1]
[Am][C]
[G][C][G][F][C]
[Am]We've got one

[Verse 1]
[Am]
chance to break [C]out
And we need it now
'Cause I'm [G]sick and [C]tired [G]of waiting
[C]Sick [F]of this fucking apartment
[C]Love [Am]me, or leave me
Or rip me apart
This is [C]the voice that I was given and
If you [G]don't like it take a long walk
Off of the shortest pier you can [F]find
And I'll be singing it out
I'll [C]be [G]singing[F]

[Verse 2]
Oh, Mr. [F]Magazine[Em]
Never wrote one single thing [Am]for you
[F]Or your so-called music
music [C]scene
You don't mean [Em]a thing to [Am]me
[F]Pick it up, pick it

[Verse 3]
up
It's [G]what you [Am]wanted
[F]Pick it up, pick it up
And [G]you need it [Am]too
Pick it [F]up, pick it up
It's what you [G]wanted[Am]
Pick it [C]up, [G]pick it [Gsus4]up[G]
[F]

[Verse 4]
When they [Am]review the de[C]but
What if the critics [G]hate you?
Don't worry 'cause we might
just [C]catch [G]somebody
[F]Off their feet
Well [C]they can [Am]love it or leave it
Or rip it apart
[C]We're living what we're singing
So I guess that's a step in
[G]the right direction
Clever compos[C]ition [G]and the [F]honesty,

[Verse 5]
honesty
[F]
Oh Mr. [Em]Magazine
Never wrote one single thing [C]for you
[F]Or your so-called music music sce[C]ne
You both mean shit to [Am]me
Pick it [F]up, pick it

[Verse 6]
up
It's what you [G]wanted[Am]
[F]Pick it up, pick it up
And you [G]need it [Am]too
[F]Pick it up, pick it up
It's [G]what you [Am]wanted
Pick it [G]up, pick it up

[Verse 7]
[Am]So s[F]ave your breath an[G]d
the money you spent
[Am]Go work in r[F]e ta[G]il and
spare the suspense
[Am]Just[F] don't take [G]chances on
[Am]anyt[F]hing at al[G]l
Anything at all
[F]

[Verse 8]
[C]So afraid [Em]of a[F]nything that m[G]ay
not come that [Em]easy
[C]Too afraid of [F]anything you [G]may
[Gsus4]not have seen befor[G]e
[Em]So afraid of anyth[F]ing that
[G]may not come that easy
[Em]Too afraid of anyt[F]hing
