Hi folks,
these chords are based on the "Nervous Energies" session.
Check this version out on youtube!
Some chords are a bit tricky, I don't know if they're 100% right or how
they're named correctly but here's my suggestion. Sounds good to me. ;)

1st verse

Bm                 Dsus2
The first sin that I once told

    A7sus4           B6
Was to my parents at ten years old

G                 Asus4
I stole somethin' I'll admit it

    E7sus4            G
But not to priests or crucifixes

Bm        Dsus2
Me and my best friend Chris

   A7sus4       B6
We built our alibis from bricks

G                           Asus4            E7sus4
And when we were questioned we just read our scripts

Asus4
"I didn't do it"

   D  Asus4/G  Asus4  E7sus4  Dsus2*  Asus4/G  Asus4



2nd verse

Bm                Dsus2
The first crime I did commit

    A7sus4              B6
Was mischief night with my friend Chris

   G                    Asus4
We packed our bags with toilet paper,

E7sus4            G
Bars of soap, and egg containers

Bm              Dsus2        A7sus4         B6
And we targeted everyone who ever seemed to do us wrong

G          Asus4      E7sus4    Asus4
Oh how the time turns on



1st Chorus

    D              Asus4/G
And maybe Einstein can express

    Asus4     E7sus4       Asus4/G
The formulaic mysteries of time

                  Asus4
But I've lost the time

    Dsus2*      Asus4/G
And maybe Kafka was a writer

    Asus4            E7sus4          Asus4/G    Asus4
But I've been living like my name is Samsa



3rd verse

Bm               Dsus2
The first night I got my fix

    A7sus4              B6
Was with my brother and my friend Chris

   G                Asus4
We stole my mothers Smirnoff vodka

E7sus4             G
Mixed it with some cans of Fresca

Bm                 Dsus2
We learned how our parents lived

    A7sus4             B6
And found that we were good at it

G              Asus4        E7sus4    Asus4
Meet me at the bottom or in between



2nd chorus

    D              Asus4/G
And maybe Einstein can express

    Asus4     E7sus4       Asus4/G
The formulaic mysteries of time

                  Asus4
But I've lost the time

    Dsus2*      Asus4/G
And maybe Kafka was a writer

    Asus4            E7sus4          Asus4/G    Asus4
But I've been living like my name is Samsa



Outro [2x]

           Dsus2*
See you in hell

                   Asus4/G
I'll see ya when I see ya

           E7sus4
See you in hell

                   G
I'll see ya when I see ya


//let Dsus2* ring at the end



have fun! :D
