Verse 1:
           Ebm
When I was younger I wish
                        B
that I would have known better
Better love makes a fat romance
lasts for more than a shoe
          F#
shine I'm bolder took all
                Ebm
the words of my mother
                   B
Saying it could be worse
Could be born with that disease
Instead of catching it first


Refrain 1:
         F#
So let's go back to the first time
       Bbm
That I met you in your Chevy
          B
With your hands stretched and me 
                  C#
crying screaming "mercy mercy"
      F#
But I know that I was put here
         Ebm
To fight vikings in the cold war
        B
with my arms out in the front 
         C#
singing "tear me tear me"


Chorus 1:
             B
These things take time love
             F#
These things take backbone
            Ebm
And they'll tell you 
what you want to hear
They say it gets 
C#
better better
               B
But you better know how 
                 F#
to point out the liars
       Ebm
You've got to win 
your wars make sure
You're not fighting 
    C#
for nothing nothing
Are you fighting for 
B              B(hold)
nothing nothing

Verse 2:
                   Ebm
It feels like this world has 
                      B
been growing slowly upside down
Maybe I should move to China
straighten this mess out
                Ebm
Maybe I'll be a poet watch 
                   B
all the sky for falling words
Write about my grandma's curtains
Or the lady who put the 
chinese buffet in her purse


Refrain 2:
         Ebm
I've got my mouth it's a weapon
     Bbm
It's bombshell it's a cannon
         B
I've got my words I won't
          C#
give them mercy mercy


(Repeat Chorus 1)

I hope they cut you open
make you seal the warn

that some things were
      Bbm
worth bruising for

             Bbm
name is your honor code
F#
Make you see that your
               Bbm
