Death Cab For Cutie

Bad Reputation

I know I've got a bad reputation
and it isn't just talk, talk, talk
If I could only give you everything
you know i haven't got..
I couldn't have one converstion
If it wasn't for the lies, lies, lies
An still I want to tell you everything
'til i close my eyes
Chorus:
Suddenly I'm on the street
Seven Years disappear below my feet
then breaking down, do you want me now?
do you want me now?
Suddenly im down in hell's square
looking in the crowd your face is everywhere
then turning around, do you want me now?
do you want me now?
{solo)
rest of verses and choruses follow the same pattern
verse: Em G, Am C, Em D
chorus: G D C, Em C D, Em C D
Verse 2:
Dont try to be an inspiration
just wasting your time, time, time
you know about the best i'l ever be
I see it in your eyes
I know iv got a bad reputation
and it isnt just talk, talk, talk
if i could only give you everything
you know i havent got
Chorus:
(slightly changed)
Suddenly I'm on the street
Seven Years disappear below my feet
then breaking down, do you want me now?
do you want me now?
Suddenly I'm in another place
looking in the crowd i think i see your face
then turning around, do you want me now?
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
Dont you think ive heard the talk
nobodys gona tell me who to love
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
Suddenly im down in hell's square
looking in the crowd your face is everywhere
then turning around, do you want me now?
do you want me now?
do you want me now?
But im just breaking down.. down down down..
