[Intro]
ED#mC#mBEF#
[Verse 1]
BC#m
I can see my teenage father standing straight on a desolate corner
D#mE
In the shower of the tentacled towers by the red light of America
BC#mD#mF#
I imagine how his mother felt when she heard that her husband was dying
BC#mD#mE
And the underground heroes of the tarmac, shoot smack, were blowing up worlds, and damned out loud.
BC#mF#
Hey, can you tell me, how does it feel?
[Chorus]
EBF#B
Yeah, tell me... Can you imagine, for a second, doing anything, that you don't have to?
EBF#
Well that's what I'm accustomed to, so hooray for me... and fuck you!
ED#mC#mBEF#
[Verse 2]
BC#m
When I slept with stony faces on the riverbank
D#mEB
My angeldevil reveler shook me desperately in dying
C#mF#
I don't exactly want to apologize for anything...
BC#mD#mEB
And now we're all mad... and tangled... in sacred rooms... with roman candels
C#mF#
On an endless graveyard train.
[Chorus]
EBF#BE
Yeah, tell me... Can you imagine, for a second, doing anything just because you want to?
BF#
Well that's just what I do, so hooray for me... and fuck you!
ED#mC#mBEF#
[Bridge]
EBF#B
Yeah, I was dreaming through The Howzlife, yawning, car black in the night
EBF#
She told me mad and meaningless as ever
EBF#B
And a song came on my radio like a cemetery rhyme
EBF#
For a million crying corpses in their tragedy of respectable existence!
[Solo]
EBF#BEBF#
[Chorus]
EBF#BE
Tell me... Can you Imagine, for a second, trying half the things you ever wanted to?
BF#
Well that's just what I do, so hooray for me... Oh yeah...
EBF#
I'm not respactable, and never sensible, I've been incredible
BEBF#
So damned irascible, I like the things I do, so hooray for me... and fuck you!
