Never Aim to Please
(T. Stinson)

[Intro]
B

B        E                             B
Tried to keep the party rollin' / from rollin' over me
B        E                          B
With the hounds barkin' so loudly / would like your company
         F#m                              E
Is there room enough for two / if I ain't got a point of view
B
Close your eyes

B             E                                B
Wish I jumped off your goddamn planet / when I thought I could
    E                                          B
Two sheets to the wind I feel / lookin' like a fool that would
G#              F#m         C#
Worlds apart by now / and I take the blame though
  E
I never said a thing

[Chorus]
  B            G#                  E                     F#m
I never aim to please / I couldn't shoot straight with a point of view
  E            B                   G#
I never aim to please / I shoot at nothin'
        F#m            E        B
Gainin' nothin's all I do until now

             E                                  B
They say you need to sing on key / and that you need to dance (yeah, right!)
      E                         B
But I got the guts to foot it / given half a chance
G#           F#m           C#
Take me as I am / and I'll take what I want
    E
And leave what I can't stand

[Chorus]
  B            G#                  E                     F#m
I never aim to please / I couldn't shoot straight with a point of view
  E            B                   G#
I never aim to please / I shoot at nothin'
        F#m            E        B
Gainin' nothin's all I do until now

[Bridge]
A                                   F#m  A  B  F#m  A  B
  How come lovers get mad
A                                   F#m  A  B  F#m  A  B
  When love gets lost, it's a gas
            F#m  A  B
  Well it's a gas
F#m  A  B
  Oh, yeah

        E                               B
I'm gonna see you to my grave / I'm gonna go for broke
        E                               B
Well, I ain't your kinda man / tell a lot of lousy jokes -- lousy joke
            G#           F#m         C#
But you can take me as I am and I'll take what I want
         E
And leave what I can't stand

[Chorus]
  B             G#                  E                     F#m
I never aim to please / I couldn't shoot straight with a point of view
    E          B                  G#                F#m            E
Never aim to please / I shoot at nothin' / gainin' nothin's all I do
            G#                F#m            E          B
I shoot at nothin' / gainin' nothin's all I do ... yeah

       E            B
But I never aim to please
 E            B
Never aim to please ...
