Intro: Bm G A5 Bm x2
Verse:
You want to suff[G5]er and [A]show me you're an[Bm]gry,
Fight with your [G5]fists up or [A]call for your mom[Bm]my
You want to suff[G5]er and [A]show me you're an[Bm]gry[G5][A][Bm]
Spend time alon[G5]e, find a [A]stick in the base[Bm]ment
Drink water and gold d[G5]ust and l[A]ive on impa[Bm]tience.
Slaughtered for weakness[G5], el[A]ectric like static[Bm]
Slaughtered, you're weak[G5] - there's n[A]o need to speak[Bm]
Chorus:
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers
You step on the s[G]parks[A][Bm]
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers[G]
[A] [Bm] [A] [G5] [Bm]
I shouldn't be[G5] any great[A] inspira[Bm]tion
I never got[G5] in your way[A][Bm]
I should [G5]never[A] have to chase[Bm] you
You were the on[G5]e who[A] ran away[Bm]
If you could feel the pain your confusion has caus[E7]ed me[A][Bm]
You would have stopped[G5] [A] before you spok[Bm]e
Listening to lie[E7]s, the pain[A] doesn't suit [Bm]me
He gift that you gave [E7]me, I [A]put it away[Bm]
I couldn't look at [E7]it, [A]it made me think of [Bm]you
You get in the way[E7][A][Bm]
Chorus:
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers
You step on the s[G]parks[A][Bm]
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers[G]
[A] [Bm] [A] [G5] [Bm]
Spend time alon[G5]e, find a [A]stick in the base[Bm]ment
Drink water and gold d[G5]ust and [A]die of impa[Bm]tience.
Electric like static[G5], and no n[A]eed to speak.[Bm]
It's not [G5]right but it's not [A]wrong[Bm]
So I w[G5]rote this song[A][Bm]
So I [G5]wrote this[A] song- is that wh[Bm]at you want
You got what you want[E7] - does it make[A] you feel [Bm]better?
A smirk on your face[E7] and a [A]gun at my [Bm]head,
You come to my place[E7] and [A]ask to be f[Bm]ed
Chorus:
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers
You step on the s[G]parks[A][Bm]
You change your shoe[E7]laces[A]
I light [Bm]firecrackers[G]
You get in the way[G5][A][Bm]
You get in the [G5]way[A][Bm]
You want to suff[G5]er and [A]show me your angr[Bm]y
Fight with your fist[G5]s up or [A]call for you[Bm]r mommy
You want to suff[G5]er and [A]show me your ang[Bm]ry
[G5] [A] [Bm]
[G5] [A5] [B5]
