Song 1: Our Perfect Disease
No Capo
[Verse 1]
F#mWe don't admit it but we've never seen eye to eye,
Amy heartbeat's moaning and Bmyours is making money
F#mIt's always a shock when old friends pass by,
Abut with you it's no Bmdeath in the family
F#mLet's not talk about hate when there's hell to pay
Afor my cowardness and Bmyour bad timing
F#mWe don't admit it but we've never seen eye to eye,
Aand it's not through aBm lack of trying
[Interlude]
F#m A Bm
F#m A Bm E
[Chorus]
It was the perfect diDsease we had,
something to argAue and screamC# about
And you will see about contDracting back,
and locking it somAewhere it can't get ripC#ped out
It was the perfect disDease we had,
and it hits usA like a painfuC#l fact D
We all need Dmsomeone to drive us mF#mad
[Post chorus]
F#mOoh ooh ooh ooh oh, ooh ooh oohA ooh oh,Bm wooh
F#mOoh ooh ooh ooh oh, ooh ooh oohA ooh oh,Bm wooh
[Verse 2]
F#mI didn't say it but you never were the honest type,
Ayou tried to fabricate aBm bed-time story
F#mAnd now I miss those games we had of Jekyll and Hyde,
Aever since the day that we Bmparted company
F#mDon't send a helping hand I need a farrowing ram,
Ato feed the reasons that I mBmiss you so sorely
F#mI didn't say it but we never saw eye to eye,
Anow I can't bear it when equaBmlly is boring
[Interlude]
F#m A Bm
F#m A C#
[Chorus]
It was the perfect diDsease we had,
something to argAue and screamC# about
And you will see about contDracting back,
and locking it somAewhere it can't get ripC#ped out
It was the perfect disDease we had,
and it hits usA like a painfuC#l fact D
We all need Dmsomeone to C#drive us maF#md
[Post chorus]
F#mOoh ooh ooh ooh oh, ooh ooh oohA ooh oh,Bm wooh
F#mOoh ooh ooh ooh oh, ooh ooh oohA ooh oh,Bm wooh
[Bridge]
F#mI need you in the TV, I need you on the traAin, IG need you every single which way
F#mI need you in the mirrors, I need you in my bAed,G I need you to wreck my head
F#mI need you in the TV, I need you on the traAin, IG need you just to stand in my way
F#mI need you in the mirrors, I need you in my beEd
[Chorus]
It was the perfect diDsease we had,
something to aArgue and screC#am about
And you will see about contDracting back,
and locking it somAewhere it can't get ripC#ped out
It was the perfect disDease we had,
and it hits usA like a painfuEl fact D
We all need Dmsomeone to drC#ive us maF#md

Song 3: Jump Into The Fog
Capo 2
[Verse 1]
AWhat a great aBmchievement it wasD to get a hotel room this late
AI bet they chaBmrge by the hour here, Dthe kind of place where you should bring your own UV ray
AIt's not a bigBm problem with me, loveD, you don't look that hygienic anyway
AI'm only herBme because ID want to twist the structure of my average day
[Chorus]
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GYou know that we hit the groBmund upDright
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GI just hope it's your boBmnes that shatteDr not mine
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GYou know that we hit the grBmound upDright
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the Gfog Bm D
[Verse 2]
AWhat a great aBmchievement it was, Dto find someone who shirks such little self-restraint
AI'm a non beliBmever but I believDe in these dirty little wicked games
ASnakes and ladders abanBmdoned here love, Dthe climb's too rough to slide back down again
AI'm only hereBm because ID feel the day deserves a truly sordid end
[Chorus]
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GYou know that we hit the gBmround Dupright
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GI just hope it's your braiBmns that splatteDr not mine
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the fog
GYou know that we hit the grBmound uDpright
AWe feel nothing so Bmjump into the Gfog Bm D
[Bridge]
I've made some Embad decisions, I'll aGdmit that freDely F#m
Em G D F#m (Fm)
It's just that life tastes sweeter when it's wrapped in debauchery
So drop your maEmp, drop your plans, drop thaGt five-step program
Because there'sD not an ounce of faith in this F#mleap
It's clear you Efeel nothing so Gjump into the fog withD me
Jump in, jump in, jump in

No Capo
[Intro]
C Am F Fm x2
[Verse]
CI'm a good friend and an excellent lover
I can Amfool myself just like no other persoFn can
I'm turning into a Fmtwisted man
CI haven't got any time for selfless deeds
What I Amdo for you is indirectly for me
I'm a Fstubborn boy, there's nothing here that you can Fmbreak or destroy
[Pre-Chorus]
FThen as I count sheep in my bed
A train of worry bullets tG#hrough my head
[Chorus]
CLast night I dreamt I died alFone
Am //A B C B on bass
Through all my talk of self-defeat
A fearful G#bomb ticks undGerneath
CLast night I dreamt I died aFlone
Am //A B C B on bass
From now I'll curb the cynical speaking
It seems that G#dream has sent the biggest Gchill through me
[Interlude]
[Verse]
CSomeone once said I don't have any feelings
Well I Amthink that emotions can be misleading
And thinkingF back
I might have nailed the coffinFm shut with that
As I tCend to cry in a room full of laughter
Is the Amcheese finally sliding off of it's cracker?
FI don't know I'll just prepare myself to Fmlet it go
[Pre-Chorus]
FAs I count sheep in my bed
A train of worry bulletsG# through my head
[Chorus]
CLast night I dreamt I died alFone
Am //A B C B on bass
Through all my talk of self-defeat
A fearful G#bomb ticks undGerneath
CLast night I dreamt I died aFlone
Am //A B C B on bass
From now I'll curb the cynical speaking
It seems that G#dream has sent the biggest Gchill through Fme
It seems that G#dream has sent the biggest Gchill through Fme
It seems that G#dream has sent the biggest Gchill through Fme Fm
CLast night I dreamt I died Falone
And apart from when I Amlost my Am/Bvirginity
I'veC neveGr been knG#ow to frighten Geasily
Song 6: Techno Fan
No Capo
DEast London's not a bomb site

DShut up and move with me, move with me, or, or get out of my Gface
BmI didn't queue for an hAour to leave straight awaGy

GIt's an angry wormhole
DI'm talking like a city boy

BmAnd I never wanna, I neAver wanna see this stGop
EmI'm in debt to you
But don't feed me plant Gmfood
Shut up and moveD with me, move with me, or, or get out of my fGace
BmI didn't spend 20 sheAets and not cut a shaGpe

Song 7: 1996
Capo 4
[Verse 1]
CI had no cares in the 199G0s
EmI knew of no downDfalls
CThough war was breaking out all arouGnd me
EmMy concerns were with prankD calls
CShe kissed me on the cheek, she kissed me on the cheek
GRight in fEmront of the older kDids
CWhen our self belief, our self belGief
Wasn't scEmarred by the modern itAch
ACos now it feels like...
[Chorus]
CWe kiss with one eGye on our TV set
EmAnd the more I gGive the less I get
CNeeding fairgroundG rides just to spark a smile
EmThere's little here to Dmiss...
Bring back 19C96
GBring back 1Em996
DSo hard to beat those teenage kiCcks
GBring back 19Em96 D
[Verse 2]
CWe were cloning sheep in the 1990G's
EmWe were building telescDopes
CAnd sugar filled the whole of my bodGy
EmAs I urged it on to gDrow
CI kissed her on the cheek, I kissed her on the cheek
GJust to Emimpress the older kDids
CWhen my self belief, my self belieGf
Wasn't lEmost in the modern glAitch
ACos now it feels like...
[Chorus]
CWe kiss with one eGye on our TV set
EmAnd the more I gGive the less I get
CNeeding fairgroundG rides just to spark a smile
EmThere's little here to Dmiss...
Bring back 19C96
GBring back 1Em996 A
[Bridge]
CStop talking, stop talkGing
EmI need a lover not a frDiend tonight
CI'm leaving, I'm leaGving
EmI'm not cut out for the mAodern life

Song 8: Walking Disasters
Capo 1
GShe used to get herAm kicks from a fall tEmo theC floor
GBut now she's always wAmasted
A total looEmker, but she's jCaded
GThe kind of shiveringAm wreck that IEm adCore

GI'd tell my mother that IAm love her dearly
EmAnd tell my father that IC need him back again
GAnd if these words wontAm drop from your lips
EmI will be your FCreudian slip
GAnd flowers mightAm wilt when we walk past
EmAnd self-help might Chelp when it makes us laugh
EmOnly finding Amquestions in answers
EmYou and I are just Cwalking disasters (x3)
GShe only finds her loveAm in a downtown store Em C
GConsumption makes her stronger Am
You're the sweetEmest anaconda C
GThe kind of lack of respect tAmhat I adore Em C
I cant offGer you a rescue Am
But when you've lost all Emthat you have left to lose C
GI'd tell my mother that I love hAmer dearly
EmAnd tell my father that I need hiCm back again
GAnd if these words wont drop fromAm your lips
EmI will be your FreudCian slip
GAs sharp as a kAmnife and as blunt as a wheel Em C
GYou be my calm I'll be your pneAmumatic drill Em C
GAnd what we'll never want, wAme'll always need Em C
EmRight now we need some pAmop psychology Em
CTo keep us up-beat
GSo tell your mother that you love her dAmearly
EmAnd tell your father your won't lock him oCut again
GAnd if these words wont drop fromAm your lips
EmI will be your FreudCian slip
GAnd flowers might wilt wAmhen we walk past
EmAnd self-help might help wChen it makes us laugh
GOnly finding queAmstions in answers

And shoAved it through your bicycle spokEes Fm

When yoAu hit the deck and broke your nose E

AAll she ever did was offend B

DWill you or won’t you, Valentine?
A / E / D /
F#mRemember when you laid mEe on my back D
And perAformed to me my favourite song E Fm
F#mAnd how I shivered upon Eits climax D
And thoAse lips still plague my thoughtsE ten yearsFm on
DYou were always the emo typeC#m B
DStrained hair matched to a bitter toneC#m B
DWell I don’t care much for fashion or socialites C#m B
DThe nihilists always get my vote E C#m

DAnd all I ever needed was some domination
AFrom a girl with low self estBeem
DI think we share the same blood type
DWill you or won’t you, AValentine?
Thank You!!!
