Track 1: Is This Thing Cursed?
[Dan/Piano Chords]
E
Is this thing cursed?
G#
This goddamn thing's the worst
A E
Now one look in that direction
B
And everything starts to hurt
E
Is this thing cursed?
G#5
It's been around for years
A5 E5
And every time my boat's about tits up
B5
That goddamn thing is near
G#5 A5
I tried to throw it in the river
B C#
But it washed up in my sink
D
And now the city cut my water
A B
And it's all I have to drink
[Matt + Dan/Electric Guitar]
E
Is this thing cursed?
G#
If it is then I'm the jerk
A E
Who keeps on hanging around
B E
When I simply should just burn it to the ground
G#
Maybe it's some kind of spell
A E
That I've been living under
B G#
Collecting coins found near a nightmare wishing well
[Matt + Dan]
A B C#
Coldest regards signed my name and sealed the card
D A B
Tried to leave it all behind me and almost blew up in my car
E G A E B
Is this thing cursed?
E G A E B
Is this thing cursed?

E
Is this thing cursed?

My haunted head aches so much worse

Than those that can't remember

So I can’t sleep, but I’m feeling alright

And I’ve got nothing to do, so I’d rather go get high
[Verse 2]
E A E
Can anybody here buy this old fool a drink?
E A B
Can anybody here buy this old fool a drink?

See my old lady poured it all down the sink
E A
But then she left me and took everything
E B E
Now I’ve got nowhere to go and I sure could use a drink
[Chorus]
A E
It sure beats waiting on the next train
B E
Back to that old scene, I leave it behind
A C#m
It sure beats waiting on the next little girl

Who grabs my heart just to squeeze the blood
E
Right out
E A (x3)
B A

E A E
Can anybody here give this old fool a lift?
E A B
Can anybody here give this old fool a lift?

I couldn’t pay for it and they stripped it for parts
E
Now I just look at my shoes
B E
Oh I sure could use a lift
[Verse 4]
E A E
Does anybody here got a place where I could sleep?
E A B
Does anybody here got a place where I could sleep?

I rented me a place and it burned to the ground

I lit a cigarette then I passed the fuck out
E B E
Oh lord, what did I do, now I need a place to sleep
[Chorus]
A E
It sure beats waiting on the next train

Back to that old scene, I leave it behind

Right out

[Chorus 1]
A C#m
If we should live forever
B A
Like sweet vampires
E
When we can reign together
B G# A
Our own empire
E
Now we should try to sever
B
All our past ties
A
But it’s me and you
A
And the skies are blue
B
Both bleeding from our eyes

G C D
[Verse 1]
C G C G
Things have been getting pretty rough around here
C Em
No coffee cups flying 'round the room
F# G C
Just daggers born from tears
D
Let’s try to crawl out from under our breath
G F# Em
We can never break up, so I love you to death
C
The man I'd become was so comfortably dumb
D
I believe you could mean it, but you’re not having fun
G
And I’m sorry
G C D
[Verse 2]
C G C G
I learned to breathe I guess some time ago
C Em F# G Em
But just recently I learned what it means to take it slow
C D G F# Em
I’m lousy with excuses and you know I love to swear
C
So goddamnit, I swear to whatever’s out there
D
And I love you more now than I ever have, so
[Chorus]
G C D
Let’s pick another day to call it quits and walk away
G C D
Let’s find some other time to break down
G C
The storm has gone and blown on through
G D
Shake off the devils a dial or two
G C F
You might leave me still, but not today
D G C D
For now, can we just stay?
G C D
Can we just stay?
[Verse 3]
C G C G
You would think by now that I’d be fine
C Em F# G
Y'know, like really stretching out
C
But it would all be lies
D G
I'm no longer in control of my own shoes
F# Em
There they go
C
Quickly running out of booze
D
Drinking to kill myself to live without you
C D
Over there, where I’m still scared
G
Sometimes
[Chorus]
G C D
Let’s pick another day to call it quits and walk away
G C D
Let’s find some other time to break down
G C
The storm has gone and blown on through
G D
Shake off the devils a dial or two
G C F
You might leave me still, but not today
D G C D
For now, can we just stay?
G C D
Can we just stay?
D G C D
For now, can we just stay?
G C D
Can we just stay?

Track 10: Heart Attacks
[Intro]
F Ab Db C
F Db Eb
[Verse 1]
F Ab Db C
It’s time I should be leaving, it’s time for me to go
F Db Eb
A painting on my ceiling and your footprints in the snow
F Ab Db C
They found you Christmas morning beneath the tree in the front yard
F
The sound, the screams, the mourning
Eb Eb
As we send sympathy cards
[Chorus]
Ab
Hydrocodone acid-washed brain
Eb
A shame, a total loss
Db
They said that they did all they could
Db Eb
That boy's been dead since childhood
Ab
Leave me alone to analyze
Eb
The sour power of surprise
Db
A ticker out of time and whack
Eb E
Too young to die of heart attacks
[Verse 2]

Track 11: Worn So Thin
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
N.C.
I’ll start out fresh
C B A
A brand new beginning
D C B
It goes like this
Em A D
So I never finish anything
A C G
And all of this was totally worthless
G
If I get through or we got to
C B A
Or let’s just say a year or so
D C B Em A D
'Cause that’s the way these days seem to go and go
A C G
And I just feel so helpless
[Chorus]
C D
Don’t tell me to just calm down
G D/F# Em
Now there’s a shortcut right under my skin
C Em
And all I want is to freak out
A C D G
But my apologies are worn so thin
[Verse]
G
I’m sorry, friend
C B A
With all these fucking problems
D
I should pay you rent
C B Em A D
Doors are open in the cellblock of my filthy head
A C G
And these days I smoke less
[Chorus]
C D
Don’t tell me to just calm down
G D/F# Em
Now there’s a shortcut right under my skin
C Em
And all I want is to freak out
A C D G
But my apologies are worn so thin
A C D
Yeah, that’s a quality I’ve worn so thin

Craving double-feature love

From the gods of hocus pocus

To the goddesses above
A
I’m gonna have to slack that fever dream
F G
I’ve just awoken from
A
Live with these uneasy feelings
F G
Of the nightmare you’ve become
[Chorus]
F C G
So go throw me to the lions
F
Listen for the screams
C G
Show me how the scientists
F
Inside of you think
C G
Anything but silence
F
Feel like I can’t breathe
C G
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed

Track 13: Krystalline
[Intro]
Eb
[Verse 1]
Eb
Never said what I was thinking
Ab Bb
The night you turned up at my door
Eb
I could tell that you’d been drinking
Ab Bb
As we went crashing to the floor
Eb
You came from Santa Monica
Ab Bb
With teardrops in your eyes
Eb
We passed out in the shadows
Ab Bb
Of a lonely Thursday night
[Pre-Chorus]
C Ab
We kissed away our memories
Eb Bb
And fucked away the pain
C Ab
We went out for some coffee
Bb
And then we did it all again
[Chorus]
Eb F G
My Krystalline
C Ab Eb F G
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
C Ab Eb
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
[Verse 2]
Eb
Couldn’t tell what you were thinking
Ab Bb
The night I turned up at the bar
Eb
I told you I quit drinking
Ab Bb
And you laughed til you saw stars
Eb
I came to Santa Monica
Ab Bb
With flowers in my hand
Eb
I grabbed you by the lips with mine
Ab Bb
And slowly pulled you in
[Pre-Chorus]
C Ab
We kissed away our memories
Eb Bb
And fucked away the pain
C
You called in sick to work
Ab Bb
And then we did it all again
[Chorus]
Eb F G
My Krystalline
C Ab Eb F G
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
C Ab Eb F G
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
C Ab Eb F G
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
C Ab Eb
Ooh ooh I want you Krystalline
