This is my favorite song by Andrew Jackson Jihad, and it's very easy to play.
Listen to the song for the rhythm and enjoy!
[Intro] Am, C, G, F
Am, C, G, F (hold on F for 8 measures second time)
[Verse]
Am
Nobody knows everything
G
We know this to be true
F
Everything is difficult
C G
Except what's in front of you
Am G
But it's complicated even under your nose
F
Bullshit math equations
C G
And your highs and your lows
Am
And your manic depression
G
It comes and it goes
F
Your parasympathetic nervous system reacts
C G
And you're in fight-or-flight mode
Am, C, G, F
Am, C, G, F (hold F for 4 measures second time)
[Verse] (same chords as 1st verse)
How's the world so small when the world is so large?
And what made the world, could I please speak to who's in charge?
Everything is real but it's also just as fake
From your daughter's birthday party to your grandmother's wake
And your bi-polar illness, it comes and it goes
Your parasympathetic nervous system reacts
And you're in fight or flight
C F
You're in fight or flight
C G
You're in fight or flight mode
Am, C, G, F
Am, C, G, F (hold on F for 8 measures second time)
[Verse] (same chords as 1st verse)
I've tried to know which words to sing so many times
And I've tried to know which chords to play
And I've tried to make it rhyme
And I've tried to find the key that all good songs are in
And I've tried to find the notes to make that great resounding din
But there's a bad man in everyone
No matter who we are
There's a rapist and a Nazi living in our tiny hearts
Child pornographers and cannibals, and politicians too
There's someone in your head waiting to fucking strangle you
Am
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
C Am G
People love you more, oh never mind, oh never mind
Am
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson
C Am G
The world won't care whether you live or die, live or die
Am
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson,
C Am G
They probably hate to see your stupid face, your stupid face
Am
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson,
C Am, C, G, F
You live in an unforgiving place.
Am, C, G, F (hold F for 8 measures 2nd time)
