Weekend Wars


Dm C G Evil S I yes to find a shore, C G F A beach that doesn't quiver anymore, Dm C F Where we can crush some plants to paint my walls, Am F And I won't try to fight in the weekend wars Dm C G Was I? I was too lazy to bathe C G F Or paint or write or try to make a change. Dm C F Now I can shoot a gun to kill my lunch Am F And I don't have to love or think too much A Dm C F A Bb Instant battle plans written on the sidewalk A Dm C F A Bb Mental mystics in a twisted metal car A Dm C F Gm Bb C Tried to amplify the sound of light and love (Instead of just playing a C at the end here, you can match the sound of MGMT a little better if you play the riff below. When you finish it, go right into the Dm of the next verse.) e|--------------------| B|--------------------| G|--5---5---5---5-----| D|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----| A|3---1---------------| E|--------5---3-------| Dm C G Christ is cursed of faders and maders C G F Might even take a knife to split a hair Dm C F Or even scare the children off my lawn Am F Giving us time to make the makeshift bombs Dm C G Every mess invested was a score C G F We couldn't use computers anymore Dm C F But it's difficult to win unless you're bored, Am F And you might have to plan for the weekend wars A Dm C F A Bb Try to break my heart I'll drive to Arizona. A Dm C F A Bb It might take 100 years to grow an arm A Dm C F Gm Bb A I'll sit and listen to the sound of sand and cold Dm C F A Bb Twisted diamond heart, I'm the weekend warrior A Dm C F A Bb My predictions are the only things I have A Dm C F Gm Bb C I can amplify the sound of light and love (Here there is a similar riff as before. I strum or pick this depending on how intense I want it to sound. Again, go right into the next part after finishing this.) e|--------------------| B|--------------------| G|--5---5---5---5--5--| D|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--| A|3---1------------x--| E|--------5---4----3--| C Bb I'm a curse and I'm a sound, When I open up my mouth, F There's a reason I don't win, C I don't know how to begin Bb I'm a curse and I'm a sound, When I open up my mouth, F There's a reason I don't win, C I don't know how to begin -------(Slowly Fades out from here on) Bb I'm a curse and I'm a sound, When I open up my mouth, F There's a reason I don't win, C I don't know how to begin
