C Bm D G G D (x2)
[Verse 1]
Em Am
Picture yourself in the living room
G
your pipe and slippers set out for you
Bm
I know you think that it ain't too far
Em C
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
C D G
felt the need to get up for it
Am
Oh, you cut out the middleman
Bm
get free from the middleman
C G
You got no time for the messenger,
C D G
got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,
C Bm
you got no fear of the underdog,
D
that's why you will not survive
[Chorus]
G C G D D G C G
C Bm D G G D x2
[Verse 2]
Em C
I want to forget how conviction fits
D G
but can I get out from under it?
Bm
Can I gut it out of me?
C G
It can't all be wedding cake
Am
It can't all be boiled away
Bm
I try but I can't let go of it
B
I can't let go of it,
C G
'Cause you don't talk to the water boy
C D G
and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,
C Bm
You will not back up an inch ever,
D
that's why you will not survive
[Instrumental]

The thing that I tell you now
D G G D
It may not go over well
Em Am
And it may not be photo op
D G G D
in the way that I spell it out
C Bm
But you won't hear from the messenger,
C Bm G D
C
don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand,
Bm
You got no fear of the underdog,
D
that's why you will not survive
