Intro: G A C G (2x) 


verse 1 
G                         A 
She turned to me and she whispered, 
C                                  G            
“hey man you don’t know where it’s at” 
G                           A 
I stared at her until I figured  
C                         G 
That she wasn't staring back 
G                     A   
Another tale for the epic 
C                          G 
Rejection in the starring role 
G                         A 
A vixen cast among the shadows 
            C                              G 
Where empty coffee cups as bitter as your soul 


Pre-Chorus 
C 
Why, why, why 
C                                G 
Why, why, why must things be so hard? 
C 
Why, why, why 
C                         G   D 
Why, why, why can’t it be easy? 


Chorus 
C                               G 
If I feel like a rockstar with nowhere to perform  
D                  Am 
Will you stroke my ego 
           Em         D 
‘Til that feeling is gone? 
C 
I don’t see the glass half empty 
          G 
Cause I filled it to the brim 
D      
And I’ll drink it down 
Am 
Gulp by gulp 
         Em           D 
‘Til the devil calls again 
C                G 
Devil calls me again 
         C           G 
If the devil calls again 
D                C 
Tell him I’m not in 
D               G 
Tell him I’m not in 


verse 2 
G                                 A 
And the boring day is run like clockwork 
C                         G 
And I never know what they mean 
G                      A 
But it must be hard to live 
           C                              G 
Under the weights and wills of a frozen dream 
G                              A 
So let’s get fucked up and be happy 
    C                                  G        
And run around the streets without our clothes 
G                      A 
Laughing harder at the joy 
C                   G 
That they’ll never know 


Pre-Chorus 
C 
Why, why, why 
C                                G 
Why, why, why must things be so hard? 
C 
Why, why, why 
C                         G   D 
Why, why, why can’t it be easy? 


Chorus 
C                               G 
If I feel like a rockstar with nowhere to perform  
D                  Am 
Will you stroke my ego 
           Em         D 
‘Til that feeling is gone? 
C 
I don’t see the glass half empty 
          G 
Cause I filled it to the brim 
D      
And I’ll drink it down 
Am 
Gulp by gulp 
         Em           D 
‘Til the devil calls again 
C               G 
Devil calls me again 
        C             G 
If the devil calls me again 
        C            G 
If the devil calls again 
D                C 
Tell him I’m not in 
D                C 
Tell him I’m not in
