Capo 2
[Intro]
Em G D Em x4
[Chorus]
Em G D Em
the beer i had for breakfast was a bottle of mad dog
G D Em
and my 20/20 vision was fifty percent off
G D Em
you said punch-buggy red and punched me right in my left eye
G D Em
i said don't you mean pediddle? and i lit his house on fire
[Verse]
Em G D Em
he came home on acid i was holding his shotgun
G D Em
i was dressed like tina turner in beyond thunder dome
G D Em
he said don't shoot, i said i won't i love you you're my friend
G D Em
i handed him my wig and shot myself in the head
G D Em
then i stuffed a box of tissues in the hole in my skull
G D Em
i got in my mazda and i drove to the mall
G D Em
i got a big johnson shirt and some silicone tits
G D Em
when i pulled out the tissues they were covered with shit
[Chorus]
Em G D Em
and the beer i had for breakfast was a box of cheap white wine
G D Em
and the boom box on my shoulder was a box of clementines
G D Em
i ate every single one without noticing the mold
G D Em
you said you're gross my darling, i said no i'm rock and roll
[Verse]
Em G D Em
even though i'd never ever been in a band
G D Em
i got cool as black ice tattooed on my hand
G D Em
and the christians gave me comic books as if i would be scared
G D Em
of burning in hell well i was already there
[Chorus]
Em G D Em
and the beer i had for breakfast silver bullet in the brain
G D Em
and the beer i had for lunch was a bottle of night train
G D Em
and the beer i had for dinner was my crazy neighbor's pills
G D Em
we had to sit down on skateboards jut to make it down the hill
[Bridge]
Em G D Em
then i peed my pants and you stole the groom's cigar
G D Em
and some old man made me watch him masturbate locked in his car
G D Em
when i got back to the apartment you were face down on the floor
G D Em
you said don't go to bed yet let's go get a 64
[Chorus]
Em G D Em
and the beer i had had for breakfast was a pint of jim beam
G D Em
and a fifth of peach schnapps and some warm sunny d
G D Em
and you said bottoms up just as i bottomed out
G D Em
i tried to scream fuck you but blood was pouring out my mouth
[Verse]
Em G D Em
evan dando never planned on telling you the truth
G D Em
and your leonardo i.d. card is your fountain of youth
G D Em
you can be a teenager for your whole fucking life
G D Em
just find some pretty sucker and make that bitch your wife
G D Em
i guess by now you all know my friend danny broke his neck
G D Em
he was driving home from sirens when he got into a wreck
G D Em
first i cried for him and then i cried for me
G D Em
haunted by the ghost of the girl i used to be
G D Em
but the rocks with holes are warm in my hands
G D Em
and i buried my toes in the hot hot sand
G D Em
and the silver pink pony kisses me and says
G D Em
you've come a long, long way and you deserve to be really happy
[Outro]
Em G D Em x4
Em D Em D Em D Em

You did a great job with this. I suggest this version more than the original. Kimya uses this version more live because it is easier to play. :)
Thanks so much!

awesome song. i think those are the basic chords, but she finger picks some notes throughout the song, and there's that little screeching violin in the background
awesome song =)
