[Intro]
C D G (Listen for timings)
[Verse 1]
C
Young love is just practice for a far more ancient
D
And hopefully successful bond
G
Between someone who is scared
And someone that they've incorrectly assumed to be strong
C
You only want me when I've got my keys in my hand
D
And I'm looking for my wallet and I'm lacing up my shoes
G
You only want me to change when the way that I have Always been has a new negative effect on you
[Pre-Chorus]
F
The unlucky over-achiever
Cannot help but throw rocks at my parents' house
G
I entertain myself with people I've never liked
And motherfuckers that till now I've only spoken about
[Chorus 1]
Am
Go forth and suffer for your art
F
If it's all you look for, you will always find the dark
C (On bass)
[Verse 2]
C
I'm lonely and angry and desperate
D
I smashed up my furniture broke my finger doing it
G
I'm half crying, half laughing and half pissed
And I wanna fuck everybody in the supermarket
C
Everyone is so proud of their own self-reliance
D
Right up until the cheque comes and you have to pay for dinner
G
Everyone is so perfect and so open-minded
Till you have a conversation where you are not the winner
[Pre-Chorus]
F
The unlucky over-achiever cannot help but throw rocks at my parents' house
G
I entertain myself with people I've never liked
And motherfuckers until now I've only spoken about
[Chorus 2]
Am
Go forth and suffer for your art
F C G
If it's all you look for, you will always find the dark
Am
Go forth and suffer for your art
F
If it's all you look for, you will always find the dark
[Bridge]
C
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me
Am C Am C (Tricky syncopation, listen for chord change on third
[Chorus 3]
Am
Go forth and suffer for your art
F
If it's all you look for you will always find the dark
C G
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me
Am
Go forth and suffer for your art
F
If it's all you look for you will always find the dark
C G
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me
C G
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me
C G
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me
C G
You're the worst thing that ever happened to me)
