Tuning: E A D G B E
Easily one of my most favorite MCS songs and I'm honestly surprised why there isn't a decent chord set on here
so that's why I'm contributing it along with some of the guitar riffs.

[Verse 1]
B5 Outside, the sidelines failing
G#5Harder than the martyred stars of made-for-TV crime
B5 Indoor living in cardboard confines
G#5Counts for very little, when safe is just a state of mind
B5 I fell off the sidelines long ago
G#5I have no occupation, I'm just wasted for the weekend scene
B5 So don't ask me out, don't make me try
G#5'Cause I don't wanna let you, I don't wanna...
[Chorus]
B5 And I can't complain if I don't know F#5how
It's a sad, sad song with no story line
B5 I fall to sleep in my rented roF#5om
It's not much to E5talk about
G#5 I've got so much to E5talk about
But B5I don't wanna F#5let you, G#5I don't wanna F#5let you E5down
[repeat intro riff]
[Verse 2]
B5 Last call for societal knockdowns
G#5Measure my endeavors loosely based on someone else's song
B5 Melodrama and a bottle of wine
Yeah, G#5here's to self expression, here's to everyone that's dead
B5 Bring back the days that fell behind
I'm all G#5wasted conversations in the corner of an empty room
B5 So don't ask me out, don't make me try
'Cause G#5I don't wanna let you, I don't wanna...
[Chorus]
B5 And I can't complain if I don't know F#5how
It's a sad, sad song with no story line
B5 I fall to sleep in my rented roF#5om
It's not much to E5talk about
G#5 I've got so much to E5talk about
But B5I don't wanna F#5let you, G#5I don't wanna F#5let you E5down
