Against Me!
from the Crime As Forgiven By... EP
For the most part, the chord changes are correct, I mean
he says it's a three chord song to begin with.
A E D A
ALost the confidence to write a song
So I fouEnd three simple chords
And held them together with my weak voice
On an out oDf tune guitar
My fatAher gave to me
And Emay Elvis turn in his grave
And Les Paul cursDe my dirty callAoused fingers
And may Ethe likes of this song never make
One fucking dollar
Leave it Dfor a demo tape
To be played untilA it's broken
And rememberEed only for what it was
Though we gDave 'em hell
Though we Agave 'em hell
Though we Egave 'em hell
(2x)
ATo my friends andE enemies who could have been anything
Titans aDnd heroes who found survival in cause and effect
BehindA counters
Behind windows
Striving jEust
To be Dpeople with bitter ideals of justice
Do we onEly need to keep wDorking becauAse it pays rent'
SleepiEng under plastic stars glued to the ceiling
Muscles Dburning aAlcohol and nicotine
Every moErning
But we gave 'eDm hell
But we gave 'eAm hell
But we gave 'eEm hell
(2x)
There's a heightA beyond skyscrapers
There'Es a distance bDeyond the freeway
More than Apictures in a Emagazine
More thDan tragedy in a rock and roll song
It'sE more than actions you know are safe to make
It'sD more tAhan money could ever buy
Are wEe living to work and die in American cities'
AnDd workinAg to live and die in American cities,
E D A E (let ring)
And dying for what we worked.
