Intro: G A C G (2x)
verse 1
G A
She turned to me and she whispered,
C G
“hey man you don’t know where it’s at”
G A
I stared at her until I figured
C G
That she wasn't staring back
G A
Another tale for the epic
C G
Rejection in the starring role
G A
A vixen cast among the shadows
C G
Where empty coffee cups as bitter as your soul
Pre-Chorus
C
Why, why, why
C G
Why, why, why must things be so hard?
C
Why, why, why
C G D
Why, why, why can’t it be easy?
Chorus
C G
If I feel like a rockstar with nowhere to perform
D Am
Will you stroke my ego
Em D
‘Til that feeling is gone?
C
I don’t see the glass half empty
G
Cause I filled it to the brim
D
And I’ll drink it down
Am
Gulp by gulp
Em D
‘Til the devil calls again
C G
Devil calls me again
C G
If the devil calls again
D C
Tell him I’m not in
D G
Tell him I’m not in
verse 2
G A
And the boring day is run like clockwork
C G
And I never know what they mean
G A
But it must be hard to live
C G
Under the weights and wills of a frozen dream
G A
So let’s get fucked up and be happy
C G
And run around the streets without our clothes
G A
Laughing harder at the joy
C G
That they’ll never know
Pre-Chorus
C
Why, why, why
C G
Why, why, why must things be so hard?
C
Why, why, why
C G D
Why, why, why can’t it be easy?
Chorus
C G
If I feel like a rockstar with nowhere to perform
D Am
Will you stroke my ego
Em D
‘Til that feeling is gone?
C
I don’t see the glass half empty
G
Cause I filled it to the brim
D
And I’ll drink it down
Am
Gulp by gulp
Em D
‘Til the devil calls again
C G
Devil calls me again
C G
If the devil calls me again
C G
If the devil calls again
D C
Tell him I’m not in
D C
Tell him I’m not in
