Standard Tuning. CAPO on 2nd Fret.
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C
Well of course
G
I'd rather sleep on your front porch
C F
Then on your cat-piss stained apartment floor
C Am
I wrote some songs about my life
G F C
And I don't sing about politics anymore
C
And you can bet
G
Until my last breath
C
That I will do my best
F
To never second guess
C
That from here on out
Am
All these songs are about
G F C
How we are gonna weather this storm together
C
I'm still alive
G
And I have survived
C F
And I can stand up tall with pride
C G
To say that I haven't tried suicide
Am F
In the last three* years
C
But that's not to say
G
That I don't have bad days
C F
That I don't curse God's name or
C G
Puke at the sight of my own face
C G
I just found a better place
Am G
Where I can be myself
C
All by myself
C
There's room for you
G
Buddy if you choose to smile and say
Em G
"FUCK YOU" to those Monday blues
C G
And throw away what you hold on to
Am
If it brings you down
C
So tell the truth
G
What are you gonna do
Am
Until you turn ninety-two
C G
Doing what someone tells you to or
Am G C
Standing up against all of the bullshit
C
I might be poor
G
Well that's for sure
Am
But I'll endure
Am
And I'll go out on tour
C G
And I lied to you when I said
Am G C
That I don't sing about politics anymore
I know it's probably incorrect but I tabbed this by ear.
* I know that Derek has sang different numbers for that part. If you relate to it, use
whatever number fits your situation.
