The way I played this is with the guitar tuned down two whole semi-tones,
so that the normal open G becomes an open F.

Intro
SOL SOLsus4 SOL
SOL SOLsus4 SOL SOLsus4
When I was in grade six I used to open the door for a girl
SOL SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
and she called me a wimp. Said there just is no need to be so fucking polite
SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
I politely agreed with her, I think she was right
LAm7 SOL LAm7 SOL
just never entered my mind, That a 12 year old came down to choosing sides
SOL SOLsus4 SOL SOLsus4
You said, That I'd die if I had nothing to do, put a drink in my hand and I'll
SOL
talk to anything that moves
SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
I just refuse to give you what you think will make things right
SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
Just to find hate when you've lost the will to fight
LAm7 SOL
and would it really be in touch with the times
LAm7 SOL
to put somebody down for choosing sides
DOsus2 REsus2
And you said show us them teeth, give us them braces
DOsus2 REsus2 RE/DO# RE/DO
Show me that dental work that puts fear in twelve year old faces
SOL LA SOL/SI SOLsus4 SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
I can make you feel, only half worthwhile, just please don't ask me to smile
SOL SOLsus4 SOL SOLsus4
And times when it just feels right, hold open the door for a girl
SOL SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
or back down from a fight, there's just no need to be so fucking polite
SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
at least it helps us sleep easier at night
LAm7 SOL LAm7 SOL
It just never enters my mind, it ever should come down to choosing sides
DOsus2 REsus2
And you said show us them teeth, give us them braces
DOsus2 REsus2 RE/DO# RE/DO
Show me that dental work that puts fear in twelve year old faces
SOL LA SOL/SI SOLsus4
I can prove to you I do or don't get high..........
SOLsus4 SOL/SI LA SOL
Just please don't ask me to smile :)
