I see faces and traces of home [D] back in New York.
[G]
So [D] you think I'm a tough kid?
[G] Is that what you heard?
[D] Well I'd like to see some action.
[G] Panic dips into my blood.
[D] call me the trailblazer,
[G] I'm a pigeon in a chain gang.

_ _ _ [G] Panic dips into my _ blood.
They _ _ _
_ _ [D] call me the _ trailblazer,
_ a real electric racer.
[G] I'm a pigeon in a chain gang.
You don't believe the game,
cause [D] you're lonely.
As strong as you're lonely,
as strong as the [G] weakest link _ in the chain.
Let _ me [D] _ _ out of panic when I was just _ 17.
_ [G] I had to get it out of me,
if you know what I mean, what I [A] mean.

_ _ _ I must be crazy,
_ _ [A] _ _ cause I don't care [G] who I hit, who I hit.
[D] But I know I'm still hanging out.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] And I'm, _ I'm not full [G] of shit. _
_ _ I [D] don't care who I hurt.
I don't care who I do wrong.
[A] This is your mess I'm stuck in.
[G] I really don't belong.
_ [D] When I take out my model,
fill the pie with gasoline.
_ You [G] can tell by the light fires in the room.
There's been, [D] _ there's [A] been.
_ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [D] _ _
I was asked about [Am] my hair,
he [Dm] _
said I [Am] look too fake [A] for me.
_ [D] And my [Am] heart's defeated.
[Dm] _
Time to [Am] shave, shave it off.
You know,
_ _ no [A] time for romanticism.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ No [Em] time for [A]
romanticism.
No, [Bb] no time [Am] _ _
_ [E] _ for _ _ [Am] _ _
romanticism.

No, [A] no time for romanticism. _ _ _ _
No, _ _ _ _ _ _ no. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
Put it in your comfort,
and don't believe I'm real.
You [A] cannot take _ protection [D] from the way that I feel.
_ _ You're a perverse hypocrite,
_ _ and I'll dance your ass.
But I was [A] _ _ _ _ [D] fake, so I burned it to ash.
And I tasted all the strongest needs,
and laid them down in colored [C] sheets. _ _ _
_ Laid [G] them down in colored [D] sheets.
Born these illusions of love.
_ _ When [C] you're out walking the streets with [G] your
faint light _ collection, _ [B] collection. _
[D] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ I was asked about [A] my hair,

_ _ [D] _ No [A] time for _ romanticism.
_ No [C] time _ [E] for _ _ _ _ _ _ _ romanticism.
[A] _ [Bb] No time [Am] _ [E] for [Dm] _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] romanticism.
[G] _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ [D] _ [Bb] No time.

Thank _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ you.
Oh, that song is so much fun to perform.
You did a good job, Leslie.
Oh, thanks, Jim.
Thanks, Jim.
A little bit of PG action.
I think it's a little more PG-13 with what you're wearing here.
_ Hope there's no kids out there.
A million uses for duct tape.
_ That is real duct tape.
I couldn't do laundry, and I just had to run to the pharmacy and grab some duct tape.
We've been on tour.
Haven't found a laundromat. _ _ _ _
_ _ Thanks for the great response.
Everyone, you guys are awesome.
We're having a great time so far.
Highlight of my life. _ _
_ _ Thank you. _ _ _
