We Begged 2 Explode 
 


 
[Verse 1]
B         E      B        E       G#m            Ebm
Someone’s gonna bleed and dribble trails in the snow,
B         E      B        E       G#m            Ebm
stretching to the bus from an overstuffed home
C#m                 F#
    we begged to explode.
 
 
B         E      B        E       G#m            Ebm x2
 
 
[Verse 2]
B      E      B        E       G#m          Ebm
Laura said to me, “This decade’s gonna be fucked.
B       E          B       E       G#m     Ebm
Friends will disappear after they fall in love (fall in love)
B                    G#m  Ebm
fall in love and get married.
B                    G#m Ebm
Isn’t that shit like crazy?
C#m                                F#
The workin’, havin’ babies and promotions?
C#m                                  F#
The cheatin’, cryin’, leavin’ and divorcin’?”
 
 
[Verse 3]
          B       E       B       E      G#m            Ebm
As we’re bouncing up and down trying to make the floor break,
        B      E      B        E      G#m         Ebm
stop sneering at our joy like it’s a careless mistake.
     C#m                           F#
You fuckheads complain because you like to complain,
       C#m                           F#
like I blame rock and roll when it’s just the champagne
 
 
[Bridge]
     C#m                      F#
that keeps me detaching from reality,
     C#m                     F#
just waiting for someone to come and save me.
      C#m                      F#
Won’t somebody fucking please come and save me?
    C#m                        Em          Ebm
Oh please, hurry up, someone, come and save meee!
 
B       E       B       E      G#m         Ebm x2
 
[Chorus]
     C#m                             F#
from all these magic moments I’ve forgotten. x2
 
 
[Verse 4]
B      E      B       E      G#m           Ebm
On a weary floor that can’t support all of us,
B      E     B       E      G#m        Ebm
in a giddy haze and dancing carpet to dust.
 
 
[Chorus]
 C#m                             F#
All these magic moments I’ve forgotten. x3
 
 C#m                             Em       Ebm           B
All these magic moments I’ll forget once the magic is gone.
 
 

 

Pash Rash 
 
 



[Verse]
B
I've been doing this for half my years
C#m                             E
I've been mouthing off in bars, trading shame for self-respect
B
My trajectory is crystal clear
C#m
I can see it in the stars
E
frame the shame above my neck, frame the shame above my neck
 
 
[Chorus]
 G#m            F#
    And the sky is always pitch black
B                     F#                      E              B            C#m
When I sneak away, I only wanna come back to see your face, see your face again
 
 
[Verse]
B
I want to listen to The Cribs, my dear,
C#m
while we make out in your car
E
And fuck the haters who object -- they're overrating self-respect
 
 
[Solo]
B  C#m  E
 
 
[Chorus]
G#m            F#                       B
   And the sky is always pitch black, when I sneak away
       C#m
I only wanna come back
E                 B                C#m
To see your face, to see your face again
E                 B                C#m
To see your face, to see your face again
 
E                        B                  G#    C#m
Not borne on beams from outer space through AMOLED displays
E                 B                C#m
To see your face, to see your face again, Hey!

[Intro]
N.C.
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
N.C.
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
F                 Cadd4/F
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
Bb
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
 
 
[Verse]
F                              Cadd4/F
It feels completely ridiculous that I’m a willing participant,
Bb
gazing at the purple and pinks in the shadow of a bank-sponsored skyline.
F                                  Cadd4/F
“Unite against the establishment! (while drones transmit the images
Bb
to a server farm in the valley for a culture that will eat its own insides.)”
 
 
[Chorus]
D                         A/C#      F           A
Oh, they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
D                     A/C#      F           A
they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
D                     A/C#      F         A
They wouldn’t be your friend if it wasn’t worth it,
       Bb          G
if you didn’t have something they could
 
 
[Verse]
F                                       Cadd4/F
Take a long look at the billboards that smother the air ‘til you can’t ignore ‘em
    Bb
and glamorize department store crust-punk-chic ‘cause Satan’s trending up and 
it’s Fashion Week, but
F                                                                   
this this is not a movement. It’s just careful entertainment for an easy 
Cadd4/F
demographic
 
in our sweatshop denim jackets and we’ll
Bb
wonder, “What just happened?!” when the world becomes Manhattan where the banks 
steal the apartments
 
just to render them abandoned.
 
 
[Chorus]
D                         A/C#      F           A
Oh, they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
D                     A/C#      F           A
they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
D                     A/C#      F         A
They wouldn’t be your friend if it wasn’t worth it,
       Bb          G                    F
if you didn’t have something they could take.
A       D       Bb
ake ... ake ... ake
F        A       D       Bb
Take ... ake ... ake ... ake
 
F        A        D        B/D#
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
Bb       F/A      G        B/D#
Woah ... Woah ... Woah ... Woah
 
 
[Verse]
F                                A
We’re not stupid people but this financial oppression has got
D                           B/D#
everyone believing all that we can do is nothing ‘cause
   Bb                            F/A
we organize through avenues they lace with advertisements
       G                               B/D#
so the ones we try to rage against are still lining their pockets.
 
 
[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
N.C.
they wouldn’t be your friend if you weren’t worth something.
D                     A/C#      F         A
They wouldn’t be your friend if it wasn’t worth it,
       Bb          G                    F
if you didn’t have something they could take.
A       D       Bb
ake ... ake ... ake
F        A       D       Bb
Take ... ake ... ake ... ake
F        A       D       Bb
Take ... ake ... ake ... ake

Staring Out the Window at Your Old Apartment 
 




[Intro]
G B C Am (x2)
 
 
[Verse 1]
G    B          C              Am
Someone hung a decorative surfboard
    G      B      C           Am
Up where your records and movies belong
G     B            C         Am
This light makes it nearly impossible
Em             B             C            Am
To see if they fixed all the cracks in the wall
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am              D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
G                           Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am                 D
to cash in on the boom
G                           C
And you don't know where to go now
G                     C
You've got nowhere to go now
 
 
[Verse 2]
G    B         C           Am
I wish you'd come down and meet me here
G    B         C           Am
I'm gridlocked I'm not going anywhere
G    B      C    Am
I've had a bad year
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am              D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
G                           Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am                 D
to cash in on the boom
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
(I mix this up a bit with some picking and palm muting to crescendo)
G                           C
And you don't know where to go now
G                      C
You've got nowhere to go now
G                        C
You don't know where to go now
G                      C
You've got nowhere to go now
G                        C
You don't know where to go now
G                      C
You've got nowhere to go now
 
 
[Bridge]
Em              B          C       Am
The city don't care if you live or die
Em              B           C            Am
It's just gonna grow and it doesn't care why
Em               B           C               Am
you're tired of kicking and fighting through life
Em             B            C         Am
And left me alone on this cold winter night just
 
 
[Chorus]
(variation)
G                       Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am              D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
B                           Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am                 D
to cash in on the boom
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
G                           Cmaj7
And you don't know where to go now
G                     Cmaj7
You've got nowhere to go now
G                     Cmaj7
You've got nowhere to go now
G                     Cma7
You don't know where to go now

To Be a Ghost... 
 
 




[Verse 1]
E                                    C#m
Fuck off, the internet. I’m tired of circling
E                                          C#m
amongst apologists who love ignoring the reality
E                               C#m      B
of unarmed civilians executed publicly.
 
 
[Chorus]
B            A           F#m
  They want you to be a ghost
           E             C#
when they rob you of your hope,
               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.
 
 
[Verse 2]
E                                 C#m
Born as a data mine for targeted marketing,
E                                                   C#m
and no one will listen up until you become a hashtag or a meme
E                                         C#m     B
but hate’s not a fad that dies with its virality.
 
 
[Chorus]
B            A           F#m
  They want you to be a ghost
           E             C#
when they rob you of your hope,
               A                  C             G    B
but you’ve got power when they’re not expecting anything.
 
 
[Bridge]
C#m          D                     E           E/Eb
I rush to my phone because I don’t wanna feel alone.
                   G           D               E
They forced us to grow into a world without a soul.

Your frozen with dread as their chatter becomes deafening.
           A              F#m
If you’re tired of being told
             E                C#m
to stop complaining about the cold,
            A               F#m
burn those fuckers in their homes.
             E                     C#m
Burst their bubble and break their bones.

Pietro, 60 years old,
Em       F        G
will you wait for me?
 
 
G
Keep me warm in the cold?
Em       F        G
Will you stay with me
 
 
[Chorus]
C
in Brooklyn Heights where the city clerk’s line’s moving slow,
G      Em
slow, slow?
C                                                          Cmaj7
They’ll feed us directives in some language that we don’t know
                      C
and we don’t have to know.
 
 
 
I Did Something Weird Last Night (unregistered)
 
 
[Intro]
G
 
Hit!
 
 
[Verse]
G                      C
I arrived, drenched in morning light
       G                           C
And it churned up my guts unless I closed my eyes
G                            C
Made it up the stairs to the bed
               G              C
Inside without puking up a fantastic time
 
 
[Bridge]
    Em                                    C
And everything so unexpectedly started to feel like a dream
    Em                                                 Asus
But I couldn't stop drifting out when the magic would spin
 
 
[Verse]
G                    C
2:00 PM: I missed my class again
        G                             C
Did you miss yours too because you're sleeping in?
        G                C
Are the two of us both imagining
      G                          C
Seven-hour round trips into each others' beds?
 
 
[Bridge]
    Em                                    C
And Everything so unexpectedly started to change in the dream
    Em                                         Asus
But I was preoccupied with how the magic would end
        Em
Because nothing intangible remains sustainable
C
Hope is a scheme
       Em             C
Will I ever see you a-gain?
       Em             Asus
Will I ever see you a-gain?
 
 
[Chorus]
         G       D
And if I see you soon
         Am
Will you want to see me?
        Em       D               C
Or will you just want to sneak a-way?
      G         D           Am
Did I creep you out like a scary movie?
  Em                    C
I hope that we feel the same
  Em                    Asus
I hope that we feel the same
 
 
[Verse]
G                         C
Fuck! Oh, I did something weird last night
           G                 C
I made out in the van with a girl I like
        G
We were kinda drunk
       C
But it seemed alright
      G                   C
So we made out for the en-ti-re ride
 
 
[Bridge]
    Em                                    C
And everything so unexpectedly started to feel like a dream

But I was preoccupied with how the magic would end
        Em
Because nothing intangible remains sustainable
C
Hope is a scheme
       Em             C
Will I ever see you a-gain?
       Em             Asus
Will I ever see you a-gain?
 
 
 
[Chorus]
         G       D
and If I see you soon
         Am
Will you want to see me
        Em       D               C
Or will you just want to sneak a-way?
         G       D           Am
Will you kiss me hard like a garbage movie?
  Em                    C
I hope that we feel the same
  Em                    Asus
I hope that we feel the same

[Bridge]
  Em                        C
I hope that I'm not reading in-
   Em                   Asus
to this too much It's a kiss
  Em                        C
I hope that I'm not reading in-
   Em                   Asus
to this too much It's a kiss
 
 
[Middle 8]
             G                               C
But is there someone thinking of me when I'm feeling alone
        G                                C
And I'm spending weekends staring at the wall
           G/D                                 C
If there's someone thinking of you when you're feeling alone
Em                                      Am
How can that compare to nothing nice at all?
 
 
[Chorus]
         G       D
and If I see you soon
         Am
Will you want to see me
        Em       D               C
Or will you just want to sneak a-way?
         G       D              Am
Will you kiss me hard like some shit in a terrible movie?
  Em                    C
I hope that we feel the same
  Em                    Asus
I hope that we feel the same
  Em                    C
I hope that we feel the same

Blast Damage Days

C G C Am
C G C Am
 
[Verse 1]
          C         G            Em           B
Whenever days slip away and every moment with me
                C           G              Em         B
feels like I’m floating in space because I want to believe
             C        G            Em           B
these are my halcyon days, but I’m afraid of my age
               C         G             Em           B
and don’t know anyone’s name because I can’t concentrate,
 
 
[Chorus]
     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
 
C G C Am
C G C Am
 
 
[Verse 2]
          C          G              Em            B
Whenever weeks slip away from being caught in the wake
         C         G            Em           B
of the American craze - the overtime, underpaid.
              C        G              Em             B
These are the Amazon days, we are the binge watching age
               C         G               Em             B
and we’ll be stuck in a screen until our phones fall asleep.
 
 
[Chorus]
     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
 
C G C Am
C G C Am
 
 
[Bridge]
Em                  D              C
We’ll get lost and wander off distracted by fake news.
Em                  D                Am
When our towns fall to the ground it won’t shatter me and you
 
 
[Verse 3]
                C         G              Em             B
and when we’re looking around at all the shit that went down
               C            G                Em            B
‘cause half of us were too scared and half of us were too proud
            C          G            Em            B
to see the systems we start are destined to fall apart
             C          G               Em           B
when we let power and greed corrupt our collective heart,
 
 
[Chorus]
     G    D     Bm     Em  D  C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
 
C G C Am
C G C Am
 
 
[Bridge 2]
Em                  D              C
We’ll get lost and wander off enraptured by fake doom.
Em                  E/Eb               D                E/Eb
When our towns fall to the ground, oh, it won’t shatter me and you
 
 
[Verse 4]
         G         Em            Am         D
whenever we feel ashamed being alive and awake
           G       Em           Am      D
in such an era of hate and military police.
              G           Em                Am          D
These are the mass murder days. We are the blast damage age
                G        Em                Am        D
where we can’t love anything because they keep us afraid,
 
 
[Chorus]
    G       D        Bm       Em   D
oh, I will be there kicking, fighting,
  G         D        Bm          Em  D    G
beating, screaming, “There’s no fucking way
G   D    E/Eb    Em D   C
I’m ever letting go of you.”

Bang on the Door
 
 


[Chorus]
E                                      A
I wanna say I’m just paranoid, but I’m not.
B                        E
There was a bang on the door
A     G#                 F#m
 There was a bang on the door
E                                      A
I wanna say I’m just paranoid, but I’m not.
B                        E
There was a bang on the door
A     G#                 F#m
 There was a bang on the door

and we can keep pretending that this isn’t really happening or wait until the 
             E
noise goes away.
           B                                                               A     
We can declare our grand ambitions about living somewhere different but we aren’t
                   E
 doing anything today.
         A                               E                                A   
We can avoid the telephone when it’s a number we don’t know but we don’t even 
  G#                   F#m
know what they’re gonna say.
 
 
[Chorus]
E                                      A
I wanna say I’m just paranoid, but I’m not.
B                        E
There was a bang on the door
A     G#                 F#m
 There was a bang on the door

I wanna say I’m just paranoid, but I’m not.
B                        E
There was a bang on the door
A     G#                 F#m
 There was a bang on the door

I’m tired of the downstairs neighbors judging me when I come home late and drunk.
                 C#m        G#        A       E         G#                 A
I’m tired of them judging me from across the street for the time that I wake up.
                  E       B       C#m       G#m       A          E        B
I’m tired of the constant fear of building something here when I know for sure
                  E        B          C#m      G#m           A      E    B
they’ll leave us high and dry without thinking twice when we can’t pay more.
 
 
[Outro]
                        E
There was a bang on the door. (There was a bang on the door.)
A     G#                 F#m
  There was a bang on the door. (There was a bang on the door.)
B                        E
  There was a bang on the door. (There was a bang on the door.)

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
B
Progress reaches down from the sky,
E
(where can I move when it always finds me?)
B
dropping bins and couches on the curb outside.
E
(where can I move when it always finds me?)
 
 
[Chorus]
G#m          F#m     B      F
Please don't take my love away!
   E         A    B       B B C# D# C# B
My home from me today!
 
 
[Verse 2]
B
We’ll spend the weekend fillinh the holes and
E
caulking the cracks that stretch across the ceiling
B
while the economic disaster destroys all
E
the color and life as it slowly moves southeast
B
and I’m like a magnet pulling the storm. Oh,
E
(where can I move when it always finds me?)
G#m        F#m    B      B B C# D# C# B
Where else can I stay?
 
 
[Bridge]
D#m
There’s a storm cloud pissing
G#m
rainbows on the cubes that blossomed on our old street
D#m
as the vultures walk the
G#m                                           C#m
power lines. They’re looking for something to eat.
           E
They wanna hear us scream,
 
 
[Verse 3]
B
“We ain’t got no money, we ain’t got no money!
E
Yea You got me! You got me! You got me! You got me!
B
“We ain’t got no money, we ain’t got no money!
E
You got me!! You got me!! You got me!! You got me!!
 
 
[Chorus]
G#m          F#m     B      F
Please don’t take my love away,

my home from me today!”

Planet Luxury 
 
 


C
 
C                                  F#
The ones in power built a dream on gurantees of luxury
    F                              C
And sold it like it's magic to the poor
     C                              G
They trick you into thinking all it takes
                        F                G#             C
Is just a little bit of effort once your foot is in the door
     C                             F#
They brutalize your confidence and drain you of your energy
  F                             C
Until you're always tired and unsure
     C                          G
They make a lot of promises but keep on taking everything
   F   N.C.        C
So you always want more

They would pluck us from the lives we're living
     Dm7                Fm
With no fucks given and profit from the pain
Cmaj7                Am
Forcing you and I to feel like children
      Dm7                Fm
Cause if they didn't, we wouldn't be too scared
 
 
[Chorus]
            D5                           G5
To say that we don't wanna live inside a hellhole

with ceilings dripping, as mice run through the rain
Cmaj7                Am
Why do we accept the hand we're given?
    Dm7                    Fm
The dealer's grinning, she knows we're terrified of change
 
[Chorus]
    D5                           G5
But we don't wanna live inside a hellhole
    C5                             E5
And give our money to some fucking asshole
D5                           G5
We don't wanna live inside a hellhole
    A5        D5
I'm gone, I'm gone
D5                           G5
We don't wanna live inside a hellhole
    C5
I'm gone.

Arm in arm with you

I didn't leave the house all day

For the last thirty Saturdays
     F                                G
It's time to trade the darkness for a view
 
             C    G (1st inversion)  Am
Because it's June 21st
         G#dim          F                C
And this winter was the worst we've ever seen
       F                   G
But we made it through the freeze
         C    E  Am
Now it's June 21st
         Dm             F                C
And this winter was the worst we've ever seen
         F  G
Now it's 84 degrees forever

The Fuzz 
 
 



[Intro]
C F#dim F C
 
[Verse]
C                      F#dim
I can't stand feeling violent
         F               C
But it's hard not to sometimes
         C             F#dim
When the innocent get slaughtered
        F            C
And the guilty get a fine
       C                F#dim
When I drown myself in chemicals
     F              C
Do I even have a choice?
           C                    F#dim
And if you scream and no one hears you
        F           C
Are you even making noise?
 
 
[Chorus]
      C           G
All I wanna do is hold you
         F                      C
But I'm afraid I'll squeeze too tight
          C                  G
Until the energy leaves your body
        F                    C
And the tears fall from your eyes
 
 
[Pre Verse]
C F#dim F C
 
 
[Verse]
   C                F#dim
We don't need to be coddled
      F               C
or to be told life is fair
      C           F#dim
By an omnipresent army
       F           C
with a power to be feared
         C                     F#dim
So as we time out half-assed platforms
       F              C
As the victims form a line
         C               F#dim
Will the Riot Squad Protection Force
     F                 C
Ever try to fight for life?
 
 
[Chorus]
      C           G
All I wanna do is hold you
         F                      C
But I'm afraid I'll squeeze too tight
          C                  G
Until the energy leaves your body
        F                    C
And the tears fall from your eyes
      Am          G
All I wanna do is hold you
        F                 Am
And I'm gonna squeeze you tight
        Am                G
Until I feel your heart restarting
              N.C.
And bring the joy back to your life
 
 
 

...While You're Alive

[Verse 1]
A             C#m
When you’re a ghost,
A             Dmaj7
When you’re a ghost,
F#m                     Adim*         E
they’ll sit around and talk about how they liked you the most.
 
A             C#m
When you’re a dream,
A              Dmaj7
When you’re a dream,
F#m                     Adim*      E
I’ll wake up to warm sun-rays that make me want to scream.
 
[Chorus]
A                D                 F#m
I wanna let you know while you’re alive
                  Dmaj7              A
because everybody loves you when you die,
                 D                           E
but when it matters they’re not there, not there.
 
 
[Verse 2]
A             C#m
 When love is dead,
A             Dmaj7
When love is dead,
F#m              Adim*       E
we’ll remember gentle nudges keeping us in bed,
 
A             C#m
or laughing at funerals,
A             Dmaj7
queasy at carnivals,
F#m             Adim*           E
listening to heartbeats slowing down as we keep growing old, yeah.
 
 
[Chorus]
A                D                 F#m
I gotta let you know while you’re alive
                 Dmaj7/A*             A
‘cause everybody loves you when you die
                   Bm7*                    E
but when it matters they’re not there, not there.
A                D                 F#m
I gotta let you know while you’re alive
                 Dmaj7/A*           A
‘cause I’ll be a disaster when you die
            Bm7*           E
chubby body, no hair, don’t care.
 
 
[Bridge]
         D            A                          C#m
And it’s not like the love that they showed us on TV.
         D            A           C#      F#m
It’s a home that can burn. It’s a limb to freeze.
      D
It’s worry.
        Bm7*
Love is worry.
A
Yeah.
