[F]
[Bb]
Do every stupid thing that makes [G] you feel alive
Do [Eb] every stupid [Bb] thing to try [Eb] to find the [F] dark way

[Eb] Find limits, pass [Bb] the limits
Jump [Eb] in front of trains [F] all day and stay [Eb] alive
Just [Bb] stay alive

[Bb] [F]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Ebm] People might laugh at your [Bb] tattoos
But
[Ebm] they [Bb] do get nuanced and [Eb] completely [F] garish
I
[Bb] like down in my corner [G] because I like my corner
[Eb] I [Bb] am happy where
[Eb] the [F] vermin climb
[Bb] Make up magic spells, we wear [G] them like protective shells
[Eb] Land mines on [Bb] the battlefield,
[Ebm] find the one [F] safe way and stay [Eb] alive
Just stay [G] alive
Just stay [Bb] alive
[F] [Eb] [Bb]
