Found a few incorrect chord sheets for this song, which, in my opinion, is the
best song on Tape Deck Heart. So, hope you enjoy! Comment and correct as you see need.
Piano/Synth Intro:
The bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the girls I like, they don't kiss too many boys
Books I read will never be best sellers, yeah
But come on fellas at least we made our choice, hey!
Intro: A E D x4
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey!
tab intro: after first chorus
Verse: palm muted leading up to the pre-chorus
[A] What do we want[E]?[D]
[D] And when do we want it?[A]
And how would we [E]feel if we knew that [D] we were never gunna get it?
[A] And where did we st[E]art from?[D]
[D] And where are we going? [A]
Can anyone here [E]say with any certainty that [D]they know what they're doing?
Pre-Chorus:
[E]Ever feel like an awkward understudy thrown i[D]nto a cast where you just don't get along?
[E]Crowd and the crew all standing silent staring and you [D]can't shake the feeling that somehow
you're doing it wron[A]g[E][D]
What do we w[A]ant[E][D]
Verse 2:
[A] Mum and [E]dad [D] always seem like that had a plan
[A] Everything fell [E]apart when mum moved [D]on, now dad's a broken man
[A] And all these [E]decisions [D] that keep getting made
[A] I can't remember [E]making them and [D]nobody wants to explain
Pre-Chorus:
[E]We're all awkward understudies wearing comfortable [D]shoes getting comfortable with doing it wrong
[E]Missed the dress rehearsals and we had to rush a drink before the [D]show but now it's show time and
we're singing our song!
Chorus: Single strum of chords with clapping
Because The[A] bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the [E]girls I like, they don't [D]kiss too many [A]boys
[A]Books I read will never be best sellers, yeah
But [E]come on fellas at least we [D]made our [A]choice
The [A]bands I like, they don't sell too many records
And the [E]girls I like, they don't [D]kiss too many [A]boys
[A]Books I read will never be best sellers, yeah
But [E]come on fellas at least we [D]made our [A]choice
Bridge:
Be a [E]fan of every band that [D]made you want to move your [A]feet
Fall in [E]love with every person who [D]ever made your heart want to [B]skip a [E]beat
[B]So come on, come on, come on!
What do we [D]want?
A E D (2nd guitar plays intro)
We shall not overcome!
WE SHALL OVERWH[A]ELM![E][D]
Tag:
Hey, hey!
Because the [A]lives we lead, they will [E]be so very perfect
And the [D]plans we make made us serve some kind of purpose
But the [A]hearts we meet still [E]beat the way they used to
If you're [D]doing it wrong, well yeah what you gunna do?
[A] [E] [D]
