Em9
Jinx me something crazy
D
Thinking if it's three
C Em9
then I'm as smooth as the skin rolls across the small of your back
D
It's too bad it's not my style
C
If you need me I'm out and on the parkway,
C Em9
patient and waiting for headlights,
D
dressed in a fashion that's fitting to the
C
inconsistencys of my moods
Em9 D C
It's times like these where silence means everything
C
And no one is to know about this
Em9 D C
It's times like these where silence means everything
C Em9
And no one is to know about this
 
CHORUS:
 
D
It's a campaign of distraction
C
and revisionist history, oh
D
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
Em9
It's a shame I doubt they even care
C
No one is to know about this
D
It's a shame I don't think that they'll notice
Em9
It's a shame I doubt they even care
C
Don't let me down

VERSE 2 (gtr. 1 plays intro, gtr. 2 plays chords):
 
Em9 D C
But whatever I have gettin myself into
Em9
maybe has been slicing inches from my waist
D
It's my fist vs. the bottle
C
And that's how bad could this hurt
Em9
or against I won't feel a thing
D
I tell you all about it
C
It's just not working out
C
not working out
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
when the female vocals come in, when the guitar plays, it plays a Em9 D C D
 
Em9 D C D
This is why we were taught so much better than this
Em9 D C D
This is why we were taught so much better than this
 
Em9 D
This is what living like this does This is what living like this does
C D
This is what living like this does This is what living like this does
Em9 D
This is what living like this does This is what living like this does
C D
This is what living like this does This is what living like this does
Em9 (stop)
This is what living like this does
