[Verse 1]
  C                            
I won’t be like my father and I 
 Em
broke up with my mother
      F                    C      
I got tired of her kisses, tired 
      G      C
of her smothering(s)
                         Em
around my fingers let me punch and 
fuck shit up the sight of
F                                 
blood and bone and bruises makes 
  C                G
me feel like I have woken up

   C                             
To all the madness all around me I 
Em
told you that you can count me
F                                
Out behind the house I’m getting 
C                G
high with just a soda can
  C                           
A lighter and some pessimism a 
 Em
dalliance with anarchism
F                           C    
I think Sally loves me I am 
          G
plotting our escape from here

[Pre-Chorus 1]
G  F                             
   Just because they named me 
        C
that don’t mean that they can tame 
me
       F                           
I will not renew my membership I’m 
G
done being an ambassador
    C                              
For your lame brained PR campaign 
  Em
to vindicate the family name
F                            C   
You fear dirty laundry aired I 
             G
fear livin and dying scared

[Chorus]
C C/B Am
Ohhh
F        G               C C/B Am
  Do not tell me I don’t know
F       G            C C/B Am
  I got voices in my head
F            G               C 
  They won’t shut up til I’m 
C/B Am
dead
F         G            C
  But now all I see is red

[Verse 2]
C                                
I am drunk on whiskey I’ve heard 
Em
good things about absinthe
F                                 
Absence makes the heart grow 
  C              G
fonder so I’ll go off to the yonder

C                                 
Smoke it sniff it snort it drink 
  Em

   F                               
If theres a feeling to be had don’t
 C               G
 wanna die don’t wanna miss it

    C                          Em
The more you wanna agitate the more 
I wanna masturbate
F                              
Jerks they’re fucking everywhere 
       C                 G
with purple smiles and perfect hair
C                              
I will steal their girlfriends I 
       Em
will also steal their Subarus
F                              C 
Throw my ass in prison I don’t 
                G
care I’ll run the joint by noon

[Chorus]
C C/B Am
Ohhh
F        G               C C/B Am
  Do not tell me I don’t know
F       G            C C/B Am
  I got voices in my head
F           G                C 
  They will shut up when I’m 
C/B Am
dead
F       G               C
  Until then I’m seeing red

[Verse 3]
C                                 
You promised me wonders, glories, 
Em
untold possibilities
   F                            
If this is all that life is I’ve 
      C              G
been sold a fucking lemon tree
    C                            
The bitterness it stings and I’ve 
         Em
stopped trusting you or anyone
    F                              
And I will burn your face off I’ve 
    C          G
the power of a hundred suns

C                                
You would send me off to war you 
Em
don’t care about me and my friends
F                      C         
We are all expendable, cannon 
    G
fodder for your freedoms
C                                 
Why’d you bring me here am I just 
Em
supposed to buy until I die
   F                               
To work and work and work and be a 
C            G
tiny man who eats and votes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
G        F                       
   Don’t tell me there’s no place
           C
 for anger here I’ve watched your TV
 show
  F                           
Beneath upward mobility you’re 
 G
seething with hostility
C                           Em
Infinite passive aggression low 
grade clinical depression
   F                               
If that’s what life’s supposed to 
       C                G
be I’ll say no thank you fuck you 
please

[Chorus]
C C/B Am
Ohhh
F        G               C C/B Am
  Do not tell me I don’t know
F       G            C C/B Am
  I got voices in my head
F        G                C C/B Am
  I will shut up when I’m dead
F       G               C C/B Am
  Until then I’m seeing red
F         G            C C/B Am
  But now all I see is red
F         G
  But now all I see is
