i’m pretty much certain these are the basic chords , though the song might feature more
complicated variants of them . i just threw it all together pretty quickly .
personally i substitute the first D in the verse and chorus for Bm , but that’s just me .
verse
G D
sorry i couldn’t be there
C Em
i was tied to a rocking chair
C Em G D
i was beat down to a pulp rocking back and forth somewhere
G D
if you knew , if you saw
C Em
you’d have said it was the final straw
C Em G D
that my life was bound and tethered on a porch by the shore
pre – chorus
C
but there’s no no no no no
Em D
easy way to tell inside the things you know
C
and run run run run
Em
when they say they think they know
D
exactly so
chorus
G D
it’s not right , it’s not right
Em C
Am i the only one who sees us fight?
G D
what are we? who are they?
Em D
who says those . . . don’t deserve to care
G D
well it’s the numbers it’s the numbers we don’t stand a chance
Em C
so long as they’re around you’re just another soul in a bed
G D
it’s not fair , it’s not fair , it’s not fair , it’s not fair
Em C
still i’m the only one who seems to care .
verse
G D
it’s funny being funny
C Em
makes you feel like up and running
C Em G D
when your past lingers like rain clouds casting shadows below
G D
i could live with so many burdens
C Em
i take all your hope and yearning
C Em
but there’s nowhere , hide and take me
G D
from their petty little woes
pre – chorus
C
i used to glow glow glow glow glow
Em
once i had a life to show
D
a love they know
C
they’re slow slow slow slow slow
Em
so slow that they never know
D
where i go
chorus
G D
it’s not right , it’s not right
Em C
Am i the only one who sees us fight?
G D
what are we? who are they?
Em C
who says those . . . don’t deserve to care
G D
well it’s the numbers it’s the numbers we don’t stand a chance
Em C
so long as their around your just another soul in a bed
G D
it’s not fair , it’s not fair , it’s not fair , it’s not fair
Em C
still i’m the only one who seems to care .
bridge
G D
i know that it’s always something
Em C
i’m just working with what i’ve been given
G D
it’s not my fault i’m happy
Em C
don’t call me crazy i’m happy
chorus
G D
it’s not right , it’s not right
Em C
