Post messa E ges on AOL but don't you G dare fuck with Ja A nelle
She's every G thing that you're not, she's not a D girl, she is a thought
She's an G idea or an ideal that you won't
A Ever get so go play with your make believe internet friends
She's D on a Greyhound bus, I ate a G hairy coconut
I think I E might have diverticulitis, G Is there too much A beer inside us
D Ugly riot girls saying I G don't know shit - it hurts
To know you E care enough to send the very G shittiest, so A gentlemen
And G ladies have a seat and D allow me to repeat
That your G stupid on-line world and your
A Stupid comments may well be justification for a beating
G Where applica D ble
Not A valid in Ver D mont
G Void where prohibi D ted
And A shut G your fucking D mouth
Don't G go to Easter D Isle
And A overpopu D late
You'll G destroy God's Spaceship D Earth

"Compact Disc"
A(pm)
That thing you're listening to is called a compact disc
D(pm) A(pm)
It's a method of conveying sound, it's square outside, inside it's round
A(pm)
That thing you're listening to is a digitally accurate
D(pm) A(pm)
Reading of the numbers that make up different sounds in fact
E It's the most technologically advanced
Sound F# reproduction D known to man
A E (w/ slides up from D#)
At least in the commercially viable sense
A(pm)
That thing you're listening to is called a compact disc
D(pm) A(pm)
Every subtle nuance of a tune is made available to you
A(pm)
That thing you're listening to is a high-tech dream come true
D(pm) A(pm)
Technically it works with laser beams yet you can learn to use it easily
E Throw your scratched, dusty records in the F# trash
It's time to D move out of the A past
E (w/ slides up from D#)
In the profit analysis sense
Solo
A That thing you're listening to is called a waste of time
An inferior and D overpriced product of an under A active mind
A That thing you're listening to is a multi-flawed industry scam
Devoid of any thought or D heart at all
It's the antithesis of A rock and roll
E But no one cares that a record sounds better
Cause you F# just can't buy them so it D just doesn't matter at A all
E (w/ slides up from D#)
And that's common sense
End on A

"Nigbtbreed"
B / G / E w/ Lead Riff A x4
Verse :
B This used to be a place where G we could walk the streets
Un A restricted by imaginary E fears
B Things didn't seem to be so compli G cated then
Til you A polluted everything that we had E here
B Our little secret was exposed for G all its worth
Stripped of A everything that made it good and E then
B We were forced out of the world G that we created
And A expected to move on and start E again
Cborus :
B We live D here G to E day
B We live D here al G ways al E ways
B We live D here G to E day
B We live D here al G ways al E ways
B / G / E w/ Lead Riff A x2
Repeat Verse :
The money moved right in and sucked the life right out
So the privileged could sit back and enjoy
The things that made this place what it was before you came here
Were the first things you decided to destroy
We walk your streets late at night while you're asleep
Creeping from the sewers oozing from the cracks
We are the blood that pumps the heart you call your home
And any day we're gonna come to take it back
Repeat Cborus
B We live here, we live here, D we live here, we live here
G We live here, we live here E
B We live here, we live here, D we live here, we live here
G We live here, we live here E
Repeat Cborus End on B
