Redecorate Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Effects]
[Am][Am][G][G]
[Am][Am][G][G]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Taking inventory of his life
Seeing snapshots chronologically inline
Something told him [G]he should look around
and tidy up
He collected many things
but never quite enough
Tried [Am]looking at it from a new perspective
Flat on his back but he still heard the directive
Orders from that [G]corner
where that shadow always lived
Never asked permission,
he just hopes that they'd forgive

[Chorus 1]
I don't want to [C]go on like this
At least [Am]let me clean my room
I don't want to [Em]leave like this
'Cause the [D]last thing I want to do is
[C]Make my people make decisions
[Am]Wondering what to do, oh
[G]Should they keep it on display
[D]Or redecorate?

[Verse 2]
[Am]Blankets over mirrors, she tends to like
She's not afraid of her reflection
But of what she might see behind it
[Em]She had plans to change her name (yeah)
Just not the traditional way (yeah)
[Am]Haunted by a couple big mistakes
She covers all the dents
with the way she decorates
Then one night she got [Em]cold
with no blankets on her bed
So she ripped them off the mirror,
stepped back and she said

[Chorus 2]
I don't want to [C]go on like this
At least [Am]let me clean my room
I don't want to [Em]leave like this
'Cause the [D]last thing I want to do is
[C]Make my people make decisions
[Am]Wondering what to do, oh
[G]Should they keep it on display
[D]Or redecorate?

[Interlude 1]
[Em]
[Em][A][Am]
[Em][A][Am]
[Em][A][Am]

[Bridge 1]
With the [Em]bells and the whistles scaled [A]back
Like an [Am]isolat[Em]ed track
And he feels [A]trapped
when he's not [Am]inebriat[Em]ed
Fair to say he's fairly se[A]dated
most [Am]days of the week
[C]He might have made it
if he'd lived [A]on a different [Am]street
I re[Em]peat, scaled back and iso[A]lated
[Am]He says he likes an op[Em]en schedule
but he mostly [A]hates it
If you're [Am]running to his [Em]room,
take a breath before you [A]break-in
Put your [Am]ear up to the d[Em]oor,
tell me can you hear him [A]saying?
[D]I don't want

[Chorus 3]
[C]go on like this
At least [Am]let me clean my room
I don't want to [Em]leave like this
'Cause the [D]last thing I want to do is
[C]Make my people make decisions
[Am]Wondering what to do, oh
[G]Should they keep it on display
[D]Or redecorate?

[Chorus 4]
I don't want to [C]go on like this
At least [Am]let me clean my room
I don't want to [Em]leave like this
'Cause the [D]last thing I want to do is
[C]Make my people make decisions
[Am]Wondering what to do, oh
[G]Should they keep it on display

[Outro 1]
Or redecorate?
[C]Or [Am]redec[G]or[D]ate?
[C]Or [Am]redec[G]or[D]ate?
