INTRO
E D# C# B E F# E/F# (E slide to F#)
VERSE 1:
MI
Well I can see my teenage father standing
FA#
straight on a desolate corner
SOL#
In the shadow of tenticled towers
LA
by the red light of America
MI FA#
I imagine how his mother felt
SOL# MI/FA#
When she heard that her husband was dying
MI FA#
And the underground heroes of the tarmack
SOL#
shooting smack were blowing up worlds and
LA
damned out loud
MI FA# MI/FA#
Hey can you tell me how does it feel?
CHORUS 1
MI SI
Tell me, can you imagine for a second
MI/FA# SI
Doing anything that you don't have to
MI SI
Well that's what I'm accustomed to
MI/FA#
So hooray for me ... and fuck you
(Repeat Intro)
VERSE 2:
When I slept with stony faces on the riverbank
My angeldevil reveler shook me desperately in dying
I don't exactly want to apologize for anything
And now, we're all mad and stranded in secret rooms
with Roman candles
On an endless graveyard train
Chorus 2
Yeah tell me, can you imagine for a second
doing anything just 'cos you want to
Well that's just what I do so hooray for me...
and fuck you
(Repeat Intro)
MI MIb
Yeah I was dreaming through the howzlife
DO# SI MI
yawning car black on my mind(?) She told
FA#
me mad and meaningless as ever
MI MIb DO#
And a song came on my radio like a cemetery
SI MI FA#
rhyme for a million crying corpses in their
MI/FA#
tragedy of respectable existence
Solo (Over chorus chords)
Chorus 3
Yeah tell me, can you imagine for a second
trying half the things you ever wanted to
Well that's just what I do so hooray for me...
Oh yeah
CHORUS 4
I'm not respectable, never sensible
maybe incredible, so damn irrascible
I like the things I do so hooray for me...
and fuck you
