seventy times 7
btdubs : for all you acoustic players , who like to fancy things up all
acoustically , if you want to add an add9 to the c’s , it still sounds good .
also adding your ring and pinky fingers to the E and B strings to make
that acoustica little pleasant Em chord , that still sounds good too .

rhythm , its kinda weird ) :

intro pt . 2{guitar solo!} :
G – – D – – C – – D – C – x2
verse 1{mute your strums a little , and lift them up a little as you get closer to
each chord change;
it’s like a slight crescendo on each line} :
G D
back in school they never taught us what we needed to know ,
C
like how to deal with despair , or someone breaking your heart .
D C
for twelve years i’ve held it all together but a night like this is begging
G
to pull me apart .
i played it quiet , left you deep in conversation .
D
i felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen .
C
i remember i kept thinking that i know you never would ,
D C
and now i know i want to kill you like only a best friend could .
chorus 1 :
G Em
everyone’s caught on to everything you do
D C
everyone’s caught on to .
verse 2{same thing as verse 1 , slight crescendos} :
G D
as if this happening wasn’t enough i got to go
and write a song just to remind myself how bad it sucked .
C
ignore the sun , the cover’s over my head .
D C
i wrote a message on my pillow that says , “jesse , stay asleep in bed . ”
G D
so don’t apologize . i hope you choke and die .
search your cell for something with which to hang yourself .
C
they say you need to pray if you want to go to heaven
D C
but they don’t tell you what to say when your whole life has gone to hell .
chorus 2 :
G Em
everyone’s caught on to everything you do
D C
everyone’s caught on to
G Em
and everyone’s caught on to everything you do ( and i can’t let you , let me down again . )
D C
everyone’s caught on to ( and i can’t let you , let me down again )
interlude ( chill , straight whole strums; i like to hum here , but its up to you ) :
G , Em , D , C x2
bridge pt . 1{still pretty chill , whole strums} :
G
so , is that what you call a getaway?
Em
tell me what you got away with .
D
cause i’ve seen more spine in jellyfish .
C
i’ve seen more guts in eleven – year – old kids .
G
have another drink and drive yourself home .
Em
i hope there’s ice on all the roads .
D
and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt ,
C
and again when your head goes through the windshield .
bridge pt . 2{goes to arpeggios here , and they lose the funny vocal affect} :
G
and is that what you call tact?
Em
you’re as subtle as a brick in the small of my back .
D C
so let’s end this call , and end this conversation .
G
and is that what you call a getaway?
Em
well tell me what you got away with .
D
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
C
when you say best friends means friends forever
bridge pt . 3{loud . } :
G

G
have another drink and drive yourself home .
Em
i hope there’s ice on all the roads .
D
and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt ,
C
and again when your head goes through the windshield .

everyone’s caught on to ( and i can’t let you , let me down again )
G Em
and everyone’s caught on to everything you do ( and i can’t let you , let me down again )
