[Verse 1]
E
I don't ever want to talk that way again
A
I don't want to know people like that anymore
B
As if there was an obligation
A Am
As if you I owed you something
E
Black me out
[Chorus]
E A
I want to piss on the walls of your house
B
I want to chop those brass rings off your fat fucking fingers
A
As if you were a king-maker
Am
As if, as if, as if, black me out
[Repeat Intro]
[Verse 2]
E
I don't want to see the world that way anymore
A
I don't want to feel that weak and insecure
B
As if you were my fucking pimp
A Am
As if I was your fucking whore
E
Black me out
[Chorus] x2
E A
I want to piss on the walls of your house
B
I want to chop those brass rings off your fat fucking fingers
A
As if you were a king-maker
Am
As if, as if, as if, black me out
[Repeat Intro]
[Outro]
E
All the young graves filled up
A Am
The best all burn out so bright and so fast
E
All the young graves filled up
A Am
The best all burn out so bright and so fast
B
Full body high
A Am
I'm never coming down
E
Black me out

NOTES:
The timing on the intro riff can be a bit tricky, and from the videos I studied, Laura
almost never plays it the exact same way twice. I ended up basing it off of this version:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5Qx2PNfSp4 If the brief pauses trip you up, add an
extra stroke or two.
The E and A on the chorus are actually played higher on the neck (on the 7th fret), and
as power chords. Open chords sound just as good, so don't be afraid to substitute.
