Lyrics + Progression
(riff) Bb5, Am, (one down stroke on each chord)
I shut the windows and close the store,
(riff) B5, Am
I lay down on the bathroom floor, Everyone I know is a bore
(riff) Bb5, Am
I'm starting to think that everything stinks
(riff)
That I could really use a drink
(riff) B5, Am
Then I got up and hit my head on the sink
B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D Am Cadd9
Father father father father, Do you call
B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D Am Cadd9 (picked) Bsus2/A7sus4
Father father father, Should I end it all
D* G11sus5
Now, here comes the song I love so much
D* G11sus5
Makes me wanna go fuck shit up
D* G11sus4 D* G11sus5, Cadd9
Now, I got nirvana in my head, I'm so glad I'm not dead
(riff) Bb5, Am
I slam my hand in the car door
(riff)
I scream till I could scream no more
(riff) Bb5, Am
Bloody and mean and rotten to the core
B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D Bb5, Am
Father father father father, Do you call
B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D B5/C/D Am Cadd9 Bsus2,A7sus4
Satan Satan Satan, Should I end it all
D* Bb5 C
You try to get off the ground
D* Cadd9
But you always end up coming down
D* Bb5 C
When the sound comes around and goes in your ears
B5 /C /D G5/A5 C
You can do anything you have no fears
D* Bb5 C
When that sound comes around and goes in my ears
B5 /C /D G5/A5 C
I can do anything I have no fears
D* G11sus5
Now, here comes the song I love so much
D* G11sus5
Makes me wanna go fuck shit up
D* G11sus4
I got nirvana in my head
D G11sus5, Bsus2,A7sus4(x4)
I'm so glad I'm not dead
D G11sus5
Here comes the song, I love it so much
D G11sus5
Makes me wanna go fuck shit up
D G11sus4
Now, I got nirvana in my head
D G11sus5, Bsus2,A7sus4
I'm so glad I'm not dead
