Standard tuning.
I personally prefer power chords for playing this, but if you wanna do bar chords that
sounds cool too.
I recommend alternating going up to the F and E (8th and 7th fret on the A string
respectively) and down to the
F and E (first fret and open on the E string respectively) to match how the song is sung.

We'll end up numb from playing video games
F Em
and we'll get sick of having sex.
C
And we'll get fat from eating candy;
F Em
as we drink ourselves to death.
C
We'll stay up late making mix tapes,
F Em
photo-shopping pictures of ourselves;

while we masturbate to these pixelated images
F Em
of strangers fucking themselves.
C F Em
We are very busy people,
C F Em
We are very busy people.
C
There's crusty socks and stacks of pizza boxes
F Em
making trails straight to the bed.

we don't have yet.
C
Well there's a long list of chores and shit to do
F Em

Prank call the cops down at the station, just for friendly conversation,

requesting songs they never play; Let's hear the one that goes like:

But we've always got time for new friends.

We might be sprawled out on the floor but we still make lovely company.
C
Pull up a chair, I'll pour some tea, we'll shoot the shit, 'bout everything,

C F Em
La la, la la la la - La la, la la la la
