 Chords:
 
 Ab                                            
 Boy I wish you weren't such a paranoid actress
 
 And I the assassinated candidate
        C#                        
 I feel like an accidental species
 
 Some mutant love child, never meant to be
 
 Ab               
 No motion dancing
 
 Feel like we're an impossibility
 
 Tried to keep the heart in the head
                          C#           
 But I was so down on the closing night
 
 Couldn't even fake a smile
 
 Wanted to fire all my friends, and
 Eb         Ab        
 just start over again
 
 C# Eb 
   
 
 Ab                    
 Sisters don't you know
 
 Our sh*t is only going to get better
 
 Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know
   C#                                              Eb      
 I feel like the last time is going to be my final collapse
 
 Ab                    
 Sisters don't you know
 
 Our sh*t is only going to get better
 
 Oh, oh, oh
   C#                                    
 I feel like the last time is going to be
 
 My final collapse
 
 Eb 
  
 
 B                          
 I know from past experience
                               A      
 He never takes it easy on his readers
           G                             
 And you become a foreign substance lying
 D                   
 in your familial bed
 
 (Buildup)

 (Heavy part)
 
 Bm C#m D G F#m 
     
 F#m G Abm                           
 Technology makes such an ugly mother
 
 Am Bbm Bm        C#m    D 
    F#m G, F#m G Abm
 But no lessons does it offer, only chaos scenarios
 
 Am Bbm Bm    C#m      D 
  G  F#m G, F#m G Abm
 and the dream that we've inherited, look, it's just random numbers
 
 Am    Bbm  Bm              C#m    D             
 Still they love you at the office ??cause you've
 G F#m G F#m G 
    
  Am Bbm Bm                                           
 been the subject of countless masturbation fanta sies
 
 C#m D G, G F#m G, F#m
 Abm Am Bbm 
   Aah
 
 Bm C#m E

 During the Gender Mutiny Tour they used to play an extra minute with the same BPM
 as the heavy part.
 Instead of playing the last three chords, play

 1--2--3--4-|1--2--3--4-|1--2--3--4-|1--2--3--4-|
 

 
 Bm Bm C#m E F#m Abm 
     
 A                     
 Sister don??t you know
                        F#m       
 Our sh*t is only gonna get better
   B             A            Abm     
 I feel like the last time is gonna be
    B       E    
 My final relapse
 
 Repeat a few times, end on A.
