No capo

Verse 1
G – – – Bm – – – Em – – – C – C7 – x2
This is the western coast, of everything I know, the fatal flaw, the coming doom
This is why you breathe funny when you try to fall asleep, why you feel alone at your parents' home
Tar in your throat shining most everyone you know

Chorus 1
G – – – Am – – – Em – – – C – – – x2
Forced to play along with our hegemonic host, hiding my opinions in plain colored clothes
Just waiting till they're bored of their game so you can sit down, shut them up
Call their bluff and tell them why you came

Break 1
G – – – Am – – – Em – – – C – – – x2
Verse 2
G – – – Bm – – – Em – – – C – C7 – x2
I've stopped defending all the powers that be, cutting the leashed of our loans
Defriending corporatocracy, but I don't know what to tell him
But ever since I met him I pretend that I'm not home

Chorus 2
G – – – Am – – – Em – – – C – – – x2
I'm selling ads on the windows of my soul, and privatizing all the good deeds I bestow
I'm selling my old journals praying that they can keep intact my savings, that's exactly why I'm saying

G – – – Am – – – Em – – – C – – – x2
That I don't believe I can love anymore, no I don't believe I can love anymore

Break 2
G – – – Bm – – – Em – – – C – C7 – x2
Verse 3
G – – – Bm – – – Em – – – C – C7 – x2
Honest I've lost my head or I'm pleased to be used to doubting the hope
All this is for the better, at least you're hanging with me, at the end of our rope
