This is my second tab. An awesome song, heard it live a few months ago and just heard it
again on the radio. My favourite band of 2012 so far!
Standard Tuning
I play the following chords;
D- 10,12,12,11,10,10
G- 10,10,12,12,12,10
A- 12,12,14,14,14,12
F#m- 9,9,11,11,10,9
E- 7,7,9,9,9,7
A(5)- 5,7,7,6,5,5
D(5)- 5,5,7,7,7,5
Intro
[D]
[D]Oh I could bore you with the truth
About an uneventful youth
Or [G]you could get that [A]rap from someone el[D]se
And I could make an observation
If you are the voice of a generation
But[G] I?m too self absor[A]bed to give it clou[D]t
And[G] I, I don?t really[D] care about
A[G]nybody else when I haven?t got my whole lif[D]e figured out
Cause when you?re you[A]ng and bored and 24
And you don?t know who you are no more
There's [D]no hope
And it?s [G]hard to [F#m]come of a[E]ge
[A(2)]I think it?s a &[D]#7767;roblem
And it ne[G]ver goes[F#m] my wa[E]y
[A(2)]And no, I [D]am so se[G]lf-obses[F#m]sed[E]
[A(2)]I guess, but there?s no [D]hope
But I ho[G]pe it?s [F#m]just a p[E]hase
[A(2)]Or I?ll grow-oh[D(5)]-oh-oh
[D]Oh I could look for inspiration
Find it in a chart on an English station
but wou[G]ldn?t that be ch[A]eap and ill-informe[D]d
And I could bet you don?t believe me
If I said it came from deep within me
But I pr[G]omise you I?m telli[A]ng you the tr[D]uth
[G]And I, I don?t really ca[D]re about
[G]Anybody else when I haven?t got my whole life fi[D]gured out
Cause when you?re [A]24 and young and bored
And you don?t know who you are no more
There's [D]no hope
And it?s [G]hard to [F#m]come of a[E]ge
[A(2)]I think it?s a &[D]#7767;roblem
And it'll[G] never[F#m] go aw[E]ay
[A]And no, I[D] am so s[G]elf-obse[F#m]ssed[E]
[A]I guess, but there?s no[D] hope
But I ho[G]pe it?s [F#m]just a p[E]hase
[A]And I?ll grow[D]
[D]Well I wish that I was comfortable in my own skin
But the whole thing feels like an exercise
[G]And drank would be someone I would rather not be
I?d try to second guess if you would be approving
[D]I find my life ever so moving
Keen wide-eyed and unassuming
[A]Hoṗe
There is no[D] hope
But there?s desperately
No[D] hope, but there?s definitely
No[G] hope if you don?t believe me
[A]Oh, oh, oh
And there is no[D] hope
But there?s desperately
No[D] hope, but there?s definitely
No[G] hope if you don?t believe me
[A]Oh, oh, oh
But I,[G] I don?t really c[D]are about
[G]Anybody else when I haven?t got my whole life figu[D]red out
Cause when you?re 2[A]4 and young and bored
And you don?t know who you are no more
There's [D]no hope
And it?s [G]hard to [F#m]come of a[E]ge
[A(2)]I think it?s a &[D]#7767;roblem
And it ne[G]ver goes[F#m] my wa[E]y
[A(2)]And no, I [D]am so se[G]lf-obses[F#m]sed[E]
[A(2)]I guess, but there?s no [D]hope
But I ho[G]pe it?s [F#m]just a p[E]hase
[A(2)]Or I?ll grow
[D]There is n[G]o [F#m]hope[E]
[A(2)]I know, it's a probl[D]em
And it n[G]ev[F#m]er goes my[E] way
And [A(2)]no, I am [D]so s[G]elf-o[F#m]bsess[E]ed
I [A(2)]guess, but there?s no h[D]ope
But I h[G]ope it?s j[F#m]ust a &#[E]7767;hase
A(2) end on A D
Or I?ll grow-oh-oh-oh
