Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]What the hell is your name
And can you ex[A]plain [G]this mess
[D]It seems your playing a game
Where you only know how
[A]to take out the [G]best[D]
Cause if assholes could fly
This place would be [A]busier
[G]than [D]O'Hare
There's proof in the sky
It's as [G]thick as our skulls yet [A]it's

[Interlude 1]
thinner than air
[D][G][D][E][D][A][D]

[Verse 2]
I have something [D]to say
If the chip off your shoulder
should [A]fall to [G]your [D]chest
Get it off right away
Cause if you don't then it won't
be in [A]peace that you [G]rest
[D]It's just a matter of time
That we all go away to a
[A]better [G]place I'm told
[D]It all sounds well and fine
But [G]without you around I
feel [A]nothing but [D]cold
And I [A]now have nothing
[D]But your hea[G]rtbeat in my hea[D]d[E][D]
And a [A]photograph [G]of my traveling [D]friend[A]
[G][D][A][G][D]
[A][G][D][A][G][D]
[G][D][G][A][D]
And [A]I[D][G][D][A][G][D]
[A]became [D]nothing
when I [G]found you were [D]dead[E][D]
When [A]I found out I[G]'d
never see you [Bm]again
And all the time [G]they[D][F#m]
[G]took talking [Bm]in circles
To get them off the [F#m]hook would
take [G]miracle [Bm]workers

[Verse 3]
We're [Bm]nowhere near pre[F#m]pared there's
[G]No way of [Bm]knowing
Why don't they just admit
they're [G]scared
Cause it[A]s already showing

[Outro 1]
