Woe Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]All the wor[G]ds in my mouth
That the scene [Em]deemed
unworthy of letting out
Banded to[Am]gether to form
a makeshift militia
And burrowed [D]bloodily through
my tongue and my teeth
So [Em]I stood pro[G]ud in the gallery
With my [Em]open socket of a
mouth for them to see
They just [Am]laughed and
said "That boy, [D]he
That boy's got [Am]woe, [D]whoa
He lives [Em]with [Am]woe, whoa"
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D][G]
And [Am]this [G]girl who I met
Whose pride [Em]makes her hard to forget
She [D]took [Am]pity on me horizontally
But most [D]likely because of my band
And [G]that's all I can get when I'm lonely
And these [Em]visions of death
[Am]seem [Bm]to ow[Am]n me[Em]
[Am]In the quiet of the classrooms
All [D]across the stacked United
States of [Am]Woe, [D]whoa
We [Em]live with woe, [Am]oh, oh, oh, [D]oh
She [G]said

[Verse 3]
"I can't [Am]get
laid in this town
Without these [D]pointy fucking shoes
My feet are [Am]so black and blue
And so are [D]you"

[Verse 4]
Please [D]take me
[C]Out [G]of my body up through
[C]the[G] pal[Em]m tre[D]es
[C]To smell [G]California in [C]sweet [Em]hypocrisy
[C]Floating,
my [G]senses [Em]surround my [D]body
I [C]wake my [G]nose to [Em]smell that ocean
[D]bur[G]n[C][G][Em][D]

[Interlude 1]
Hah, hah!
[C][G][Am][Em][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]Ba da da, [G]ba da da,
[Em]ba da da[D], da da da[C]
Ba [G]da da, ba da da, [Em]ba da da,
[D]da [G]da da[D][C]
Ba da [G]da, ba da da, [Em]ba da da[D], da[G] d[C]a da
Ba da [G]da, la da [D]da, [Em]la da da[D]
So [G]now I'm forging

[Verse 6]
[Am]ahead
Passed all [C]the [G]plutocrats [D]who sold me out
[Em]Go s[Am]ob in your bed
If life [C]is [G]twice as [D]pretty
once [Em]you're dead
Then [Am]send me a card
I'm still the [G]optimist
[D]Though it is hard
[Em]When [Am]all y[D]ou w[Am]ant to
[Em]be i[D]s in a dream[G][Em][G]
[Em]A dream

[Interlude 2]
[C][G][Em][D][Em][C]
Ba [G]da da,

[Verse 7]

La [G]da da, la da da, [Em]la da da[D], da d[Em]a
