Push Yourself
The Courteeners
ANNA (2013)
Standard tuning
Am G
You think that you're so clever
F G
And you think you know it all
Am G
You're risk-free, the king of stability
F G
But the doctors predict a fall
Am G
You're content, intent, even
F G
Of spending your days with a screen
Am G F
This is the most predictable waste of life
G C (continued to chorus)
The nation has ever seen
Em F
You need to push yourself
G C (continue)
This is not the world
Em
You need to push yourself
F G C Em F G
Think of Ziggy, think of all the girls
Am G
I'm not flattered, and I'm not surprised
F G
That you roll this way
Am G
You stand back, fuck me, you're so on-track
F G
You gobble up the Gospel as they say
Am G
"You need to come a little closer"
F G Am
"No, you're wrong", you need to see the edge of the rails
G
Get both of your hands up
F
Locaste the chalkboard
G C
And scrape your nails
Em F
You need to push yourself
G C
This is not the world
Em
You need to push yourself
F G C
Think of Ziggy, think of all the girls
Em F
You need to push yourself
G C
This is not the world

You need to push yourself
