song: My Friend Chris artist: The Menzingers album: I Was Born - EP tabbed by: fr3shb4ng Hi folks, these chords are based on the "Nervous Energies" session. Check this version out on youtube! Some chords are a bit tricky, I don't know if they're 100% right or how they're named correctly but here's my suggestion. Sounds good to me. ;) Csus2 G7sus4 A6 Gsus4 D7sus4 Gsus4/F Csus2* e|---5---|---5---|---x---|---x---|---x---|---x---|---0---| B|---5---|---5---|---x---|---3---|---3---|---3---|---3---| G|---7---|---7---|---x---|---2---|---2---|---2---|---2---| D|---7---|---5---|---9---|---2---|---0---|---0---|---0---| A|---5---|---7---|---9---|---0---|---2---|---x---|---0---| E|---5---|---5---|---7---|---0---|---0---|---3---|---x---| // standard tuning // capo on 3rd fret 1st verse

^AmThe first sin that ^Csus2I once told Was ^G7sus4to my parents at ^A6ten years old

^FI stole somethin' ^Gsus4I'll admit it But ^D7sus4not to priests or ^Fcrucifixes

^AmMe and my ^Csus2best friend Chris We ^G7sus4built our ali^A6bis from bricks

^FAnd when we were questioned ^Gsus4we just read our ^D7sus4scripts ^Gsus4"I didn't do it"

C Gsus4/F Gsus4 D7sus4 Csus2* Gsus4/F Gsus4 2nd verse

^AmThe first crime I ^Csus2did commit Was ^G7sus4mischief night with ^A6my friend Chris

We ^Fpacked our bags with ^Gsus4toilet paper, ^D7sus4Bars of soap, and ^Fegg containers

^AmAnd we targeted ^Csus2everyone who ^G7sus4ever seemed to ^A6do us wrong ^FOh how the ^Gsus4time turns ^D7sus4on ^Gsus4

1st Chorus

And ^Cmaybe Einstein ^Gsus4/Fcan express The ^Gsus4formulaic ^D7sus4mysteries of ^Gsus4/Ftime

But I've lost the ^Gsus4time Csus2* Gsus4/F And maybe Kafka was a writer

But ^Gsus4I've been living ^D7sus4like my name is ^Gsus4/FSamsa ^Gsus4

3rd verse

^AmThe first night I^Csus2 got my fix Was ^G7sus4with my brother and ^A6my friend Chris

We ^Fstole my mothers ^Gsus4Smirnoff vodka ^D7sus4Mixed it with some ^Fcans of Fresca

^AmWe learned how our ^Csus2parents lived And ^G7sus4found that we were ^A6good at it

^FMeet me at the ^Gsus4bottom or in ^D7sus4between ^Gsus4

2nd chorus

And ^Cmaybe Einstein ^Gsus4/Fcan express The ^Gsus4formulaic ^D7sus4mysteries of ^Gsus4/Ftime

But I've lost the ^Gsus4time Csus2* Gsus4/F And maybe Kafka was a writer

But ^Gsus4I've been living ^D7sus4like my name is ^Gsus4/FSamsa ^Gsus4

Outro [2x] Csus2* See you in hell

I'll see ya when I ^Gsus4/Fsee ya See you in ^D7sus4hell
