Fireworks -- George Watsky Album -- Cardboard Castles Standard tuning Alignment may be an issue. Fmaj7 EADGBE 003210 [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/w/watsky/369437.html ] C It’s hard to be living Fmaj7 You gotta play the cards you were given Am You think it’s simple, but it goddam* isn’t G It’s tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison C And as you’re hittin your prime Fmaj7 People say you been committing a crime Am But I won’t quit till I’m home G I’ll chip the limestone a bit at a time C slap mute Wait! I’m a pale ass pale Fmaj7 Middle-class straight white male Am I won’t have an alibi the day I fail G Cause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail C In a (boom-boom) heartbeat Fmaj7 Am Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a pat on the back Am And I gotta thank ‘em for loving me G From the moment I was strapped in a Volvo car seat C When I needed a pep talk Fmaj7 I couldn’t remember to wreck shop Am Writer’s block, staring at my laptop desktop G Or sleeping in my rental in a turnpike rest stop C Shi* in storage, living from a suitcase Fmaj7 Thinking “this is how a silver spoon tastes?” Am Cause you can make a dream possible G But it’ll never be easy, no matter what you chase C If you wanna poke fun then do so Fmaj7 I’ll do it for you, it’s no crime Am I’m like if the dude from Juno G Grew a Jewfro and liked to rhyme (OOoooooohhh!!!) C So tell me that I’m not a rapper Fmaj7 Tell Rudolph he can’t pull sleighs Am Tell pluto it’s not a planet G And he’ll probably keep spinning in the same old way C On and on, every day Fmaj7 Right around the sun, wanna feel the rays Am You do it ‘cause you love it like nothing else in the universe G And f*** it, it’s embedded in your DNA |
