John Grant - Queen Of Denmark chords
Start Jamming...
[C]
I wanted to change the world, but I could not even change my underwear.
[F] And when the shit got really, really out of hand, [G] I had it all the way up to my [C] hairline,
which keeps receding like my self-confidence.
As if I ever had any of that stuff anyway.
[F] I hope I didn't destroy your celebration, [G] or your bad mitzvah birthday party, or your Christmas.
[C] You put me in this cage and threw away the key.
Was this us and them shit that did me [F] in?
You tell me that my life is based upon a lie.
[G] I casually mention that I pissed in your coffee.
[C] I hope you know that all I want from you is sex.
To be with someone who looks matching in athletic [F] wear.
And if your haircut isn't right, you'll be dismissed.
[G] You get your walking papers and you can leave now.
[C] I don't know what to want from this world.
I really don't know what to want from this world.
[F] I don't know what it is you want to want from [G] me.
I really have no right to want anything from you at [C] all.
Why don't you take it out on somebody else?
Why don't you pull the shit out of somebody [F] else?
Why don't you tell somebody else that they're stupid?
[G] Make me count it a pathetic fault.
[C]
[F]
[Dm]
[G]
[C] Who's gonna be the one to save me from myself?
You better bring a stun gun and perhaps a [F] crowbar.
You better pack a lunch and get up really [G] early.
And you should probably get down on your knees and [C] pray.
It's really fun to look embarrassed all the time.
Like you could never cut the mustard with the big [F] boys.
I really don't know who the fuck you think you [G] are.
Could I please see your license and your registration?
[C]
I don't know what to want from this world.
I really don't know what to want from this world.
[F] I don't know what it is you want to want from me.
[G] I really have no right to want anything from you at all.

[C]
[F]
[G] Jesus [Gm] [Dm]
[G] [Em]
[C] isn't coming here to pick you up.
You'll still be sitting right here ten years from now.
[F] You're just a sucker but we'll see who gets the last [G] laugh.
Who knows maybe you'll get to be the next Queen [C] of Denmark.
