CHORUS
DO FA DO
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck.
DO SOL
Some nights I call it a draw.
DO FA DO
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle.
FA DO SOL
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
FA DO FA DO
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
FA DO SOL
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh.
FA DO FA DO
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
FA SOL DO FA DO FA DO SOL
Most nights, I don't know anymore
VERSE:
DO
This is it, boys. This is war.
FA DO
What are we waiting for?
FA DO SOL
Why don't we break the rules already?
DO
I was never one to believe the hype.
FA DO
Save that for the black and white.
FA DO
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
SOL
But here they come again to jack my style
DO
And that's alright
FA DO
I found a martyr in my bed tonight.
FA DO
She stops my bones from wondering
SOL
Just who I am, who I am, who I am.
DO FA DO FA SOL
Yeah, oh who am I mmmm mmmmm
CHORUS again:
Some nights I wish that this all would end
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again.
Some nights, I always win (I always win)
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
Oh Lord, I still don't know what I stand for, oh.
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know
BRIDGE 1:
play chord pattern in background
DO FA DO FA DO FA SOL
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?
No. When I see stars, that's all they are.
SOL
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan.
FA DO FA SOL
So come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!
VERSE:
That is it, guys, that is all.
Five minutes in and I'm bored again.
Ten years of this, and I'm not sure if anybody understands.
This is not one for the folks back home.
I'm sorry to leave, Mom, I had to go.
Who the f*** wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
BRIDGE 2:
FA
My heart is breaking for my sister
DO
And the con that she called love.
FA
But when I look into my nephew's eyes,
FA
Man, you wouldn't believe
DO SOL
The most amazing things that can come from.
DO FA DO FA DO SOL
Some terrible nights.
CLOSE:
The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance.
