View Guitar Chords for Syke life is awesome - chords ver. 1
I *think* this is mostly right. I'm pretty new to tabbing out songs and this is the one I've done yet (and the first punk song ;-)). I'm not sure about the F* but the one I is the closest I can get. I'm also not sure about the last chord for each verse... it not be C. Anyway, enjoy! --------- Chords (low to high): C: X32010 D7: XX0212 F: 133211 F*: XX0565 G: 320022 --------- C G D7 F*CI sat along the rocks and watched the cold Maine water rush aFway. CThe sun and my guitar and I knew what you were doing yesterGday. AmYou broke those promises Fbut I’ll get over it. Am‘Cause as long as I’m breathing fresh Gair I don’t really give a shit CBut I'll get mad for the next ten years, but Frealise sometimes Cthings are great.CI didn’t have directions and I hadn’t eaten anything Fall day. CWe sucked a fat one and wasted a hundred dollars just to Gplay. AmAte a bag of peanuts, beFfore the windy road. AmAnd I couldn’t drink a thing all night Gbecause of the vomit in my throat. CThen you gave me your sweatshirt and your Fnumber, sometimes Cthings are great.C G D7 F*FYou don’t own meG! You don't own me!CI worked my ass of my entire life to accomplish one Fdream. CIt started happening and everything was bastardized my Ggreed. AmI said “pull this shit over anFd let me out AmI swear to fucking God I’m fuckinGg giving up right now” CAnd now I’ve got a brand new start, FI realise sometimeCs things are great.CScream it in apartment halls - GScream it loud in shopping malls - D7 F* Take a ball point pen and paint the inside’s of your eyelids with the constant reminder: FYou don’t own meG. You don’t own me.CThen I was underground without food or sunlight or Fencouragement. CDepression set in ‘cause I was a product of mGy environment. AmAnd then the other day, I Fjust got in my car. AmPick Glenn Tillbrook up from the hotel, Gdrive him to the bar. CHe wore a t-shirt just like Fme and wasn’t on his phone Cand for fifteen fucking minutes I had a Gconversation with a hero. CSo I’ll be mad for thFe next ten years... CAnd after that we’ll go drink beers Guntil the bar runs out of beers Cprepare for the Fnext twenty-three Cyears.C F F* F x4C‘Cause if I wasn’t a fat kid in high schoFol, I would have never listened to punk rock. CAnd if I knew how to throw a football, GI would have never played any music. CAnd if never got my heart broken, FI would sing “blah blah fucking nothing.” CAnd if you didn’t fuck my ex-girlfriendG, I would still owe you three-thousand dollars. CAnd if I never lived in that van then FI wouldn’t have met Chris or Steve or James, Alex Middagh. CAnd if I never worked in a basement GI would have never quit my job. C F F* And if I had a big emo band or dropped out of college, I would have never met you, man.
