[ verse 1 ]

E
i don’t ever want to talk that way again
A
i don’t want to know people like that anymore
B
as if there was an obligation
A Am
as if you i owed you something
E
black me out

[ chorus ]
E A
i want to piss on the walls of your house
B
i want to chop those brass rings off your fat fxxking fingers
A
as if you were a king – maker
Am
as if , as if , as if , black me out

[ repeat intro ]

[ verse 2 ]

E
i don’t want to see the world that way anymore
A
i don’t want to feel that weak and insecure
B
as if you were my fxxking pimp
A Am
as if i was your fxxking whore
E
black me out

[ repeat chorus 2x ]

[ repeat intro ]

[ outro ]

E
all the young graves filled up
A Am
the best all burn out so bright and so fast
E
all the young graves filled up
A Am
the best all burn out so bright and so fast
B
full body high
A Am
i’m never coming down
E
black me out

notes :

the timing on the intro riff can be a bit tricky , and from the videos i studied , laura
almost never plays it the exact same way twice . i ended up basing it off of this version :

extra stroke or two .

the E and a on the chorus are actually played higher on the neck ( on the 7th fret ) , and
as power chords . open chords sound just as good , so don’t be afraid to substitute .
