Just a compilation of the chords to one of my favorite albums, no real credit to me. 1. Time To Pretend INTRO E|--5-5-5-5-3-2-3-5-5-5-5-3-2-3-| B|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--| G|------------------------------| D|------------------------------| A|------------------------------| E|------------------------------| WEE TUNE E|-----------2-2------| B|-5-3-2--------------| G|------4-2-----------| x 5 D|--------------------| A|--------------------| E|--------------------|
DI'm feeling rough I'm feelingG raw I'm in the prime of my Dlife. DLet's make some music make some Gmoney find some models for Dwives. DI'll move to Paris, shoot some Gheroin and fuck with the Dstars. DYou man the island and the Gcocaine and the elegant Dcars.
PRE-CHORUS
GThis is our decision to live fast and die young. We've got the vision, now let's have some Dfun GYeah it's overwhelming, but what else can we do? Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning Dcommute?
CHORUS 1
AForget about our mothers and our F#mfriends. We were Gfated Ato preDtend. G to preDtend. We were Gfated to preDtend. G to preDtend.
VERSE 2
DI'll miss the playgrounds and the Ganimals and digging up Dworms. DI'll miss the comfort of my Gmother and the weight of the Dworld. DI'll miss my sister, miss my Gfather, miss my dog and my Dhome. DYeah I'll miss the boredom and the Gfreedom and the time spent Dalone.
PRE-CHORUS
GBut there is really nothing, nothing we can do. Love must be forgotten. Life can always start up Danew. GThe models will have children, we'll get a divorce, we'll find some more models, Everything must run its Dcourse.
CHORUS
AWe'll choke on our vomit and that will be the F#mend. We were Gfated Ato preDtend. G to preDtend. We were Gfated to preDtend. G to preDtend.
2. Weekend Wars
DmEvil S I yes to find a sChore, G CA beach that doesn't qGuiver anymoFre, DmWhere we can crush some pClants to paint my wFalls, And I won't Amtry to fight in the weekend wFars
DmWas I? I was too lazy to bCathe G COr paint or write or tGry to make aF change. DmNow I can shoot a Cgun to kill my lFunch And I don't Amhave to love or think too Fmuch
AInDmstant Cbattle Fplans Awritten on the A#sidewalk AMeDmntal Cmystics Fin a Atwisted metal A#car ATrDmied to CampliFfy the Gmsound of A#light and Clove
(Instead of just playing a C at the end here, you can match the sound of MGMT a little better if you play the riff below. When you finish it, go right into the Dm of the next verse.) e|--------------------| B|--------------------| G|--5---5---5---5-----| D|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----| A|3---1---------------| E|--------5---3-------|
DmChrist is cursed of faders and madCers G Might Ceven take a Gknife to split a Fhair DmOr even scare the Cchildren off my Flawn Giving us Amtime to make the makeshift Fbombs
DmEvery mess invested was a Cscore G We Ccouldn't use Gcomputers anyFmore But it's Dmdifficult to Cwin unless you're Fbored, And you might Amhave to plan for the weekend Fwars
ATrDmy to bCreak my Fheart I'll Adrive to AriA#zona. AIt Dmmight Ctake F100 Ayears to grow an A#arm AI'll Dmsit and Clisten Fto the Gmsound of A#sand and Acold DmTwisted Cdiamond Fheart, AI'm the weekend A#warrior AMyDm preCdictions Fare the oAnly things I A#have AI Dmcan CampliFfy the Gmsound of A#light and Clove
(Here there is a similar riff as before. I strum or pick this depending on how intense I want it to sound. Again, go right into the next part after finishing this.) e|--------------------| B|--------------------| G|--5---5---5---5--5--| D|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--| A|3---1------------x--| E|--------5---4----3--|
CI'm a curse and I'm a A#sound, When I open up my mouth, There's a reason I don't Fwin, I don't know how to Cbegin I'm a curse and I'm a A#sound,
When I open up my mouth,
There's a reason I don't Fwin, I don't know how to Cbegin
I'm a curse and I'm a A#sound, When I open up my mouth, There's a reason I don't Fwin, I don't know how to Cbegin
3. The Youth!

It's pretty easy to make out just by listening to it, but I think I got it right for the most part. Any comments or corrections are welcome. All the verse parts are barre chords: E A Am B Dm D G F F# C G2 e|-------5----5---7----5---5---3---1---2----3---10---------------------------| B|---9---5----5---7----6---7---3---1---2----5---12---------------------------| G|---9---6----5---8----7---7---4---2---3----5---12---------------------------| D|---9---7----7---9----7---7---5---3---4----5---12---------------------------| A|---7---7----7---9----5---5---5---3---4----3---10---------------------------| E|---0---5----5---7------------3---1---2-------------------------------------|

A little different for the next verse:
EIf what they say is true EYou are a shadow in the fourth dimension ETo float away with you EWe see the corners where nothing happens AWhile we dAmrifted we were oEne ACeilings lAmifted walls wereE gone
EYou speak the lDanguage of the bGreeze GAll your leaves were meant for me The lFove that every pF#erson wants to Ebe
Here is the instrumental verse part: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------9-7-10-9------------------------------------------| G|--9-------7-----------------------9-9---6-8-11-----------------------------| D|-------9-----7-9-----------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
DmStuck together, I don't lCike revealing secrets I'll Flive inside your lips if you won't lGaugh My heaving hands on rotten frAuit at last DmFallow fingers, there's a sCurface I can count on She'd fFit inside my heart and take it oGver Till her cape got blown intAo my red lungs DmEither there's a purpose Or I'm hCeading out at breakfast Take a dFrink, take a drag One more cGoffee, ugly hat No more miGrrors, woolen bag And I am gDone
The song ends by strumming a standard D chord a bunch of times, before ending on a final G chord. 7. Pieces of What Chordies G,D,Em,C Verse:
