C Bm C You thought you had it made like the songs would write themselves Bm But your words ran out of ink and your fingers lost the chords C You lay around so bored and you hit the bar at two Bm And you waste your time on girls they know they're getting used C They love the pain that you create the drunken fights you fabricate Bm 'Cause they've been hurt too worse than you C You told yourself it's not your fault you told them not to get involved Bm Some bullshit excuse to escape unbruised G C C/B But they move on while you're stuck hating yourself deprecation Am G Your self centered songs C C/B The space you've created Am G Between your words and your actions E These loveless liaisons have left you alone Am G C All you've gain is a lose C Bm C You really wish it wasn't like it was but like before that time C You wished it was a little more than how you felt before that time Bm You made a wish to think the way you felt when you were young Bm When you realized you'd never ever, ever know a love C You wished and prayed and you tried to stay in love or at least in your lover's good graces Bm Just keep it going, just keep it going G 'Cause when they leave the drinks get stronger C G And much, much more frequent Am G For the sloppy drunk boys C G Who hide in their basements Am G Where the songs write themselves E Yeah it used to be easy before we got lazy Am G C and drank with the girls G Am G No, no I know it's not your fault C G Am G No, no no, no, no you said not to get involved C G Whatever makes you happy E Am Whatever you need to believe G C G in all these self afflicted tradgedies E You scribble them down on that miserable sound Am G C I guess this is the goodlife G Am G no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no baby let it go C G Am G no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no baby let it go E Self deprecation has made it's translation Am G C These lyrics are done
