(The E and F# are high barre chords at 7 and 9)
Intro: B E
[Verse 1]
B E B E A E B
I used to like walking with my eyes down, I'd sleep all day and fret away the night hours
E B E A E B
But then I saw the sun and felt its light's power, And I found out the planet ain't no private house
E B E A E B
Now I turn a brave bully to a shy coward, Make a loud lout silent as a quiet mouse
E E B A E B
Then I make them hand over the white cloud, And then they're leaving me with a polite bow
A E B A E B
And I've got plans I haven't time to write down, I'll incite a riot, fire flying all around
A E B
When I'm crying out I'm howling with the wild hounds
E B
Don't wanna buy an ounce,
E B E B
For me the right amount, is the entire pound
[Chorus]
A B E
I only like it when it's dimed out
A E B
I only like it when it's dimed out
A B E
I only like it when it's dimed out
B E B E B E
When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out
[Verse 2]
B E B E A E B
I don't chase after clocks or calendars, I bow down not to masters, gods, nor managers
E B E A E B
Cause all the greatest artists they were amateurs, Unembarrassed dressed in only bandages
E B E A E B
And I don't read rules or adhere to rituals, I'm an impatient underdog indivisible
E B E A E B
And my challengers are talentless imbeciles, When my chalice is full, I am invincible
A E B A B E
I don't listen to parents or priests or principals, Inconsiderate of little individuals
A E B
When they ration out their miniscule residuals
E B
Shit by the fistful
E B E B
As long as there's a law, I'll be a criminal
[Chorus]
A B E
I only like it when it's dimed out
A E B
I only like it when it's dimed out
A B E
I only like it when it's dimed out
B E B E B E
When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out
C# F# C# F#
When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out
C# F# C# F#
When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out
[Solo]
F# C# F# , B F# C# x4
[Bridge]
B F# C#
I turned it up to four and couldn't feel it
B F# C#
I turned it up to five, it wasn't real yet
B F# C#
Turning it up to six wouldn't reveal it
F# C#
Seven was a secret
F# C#
Eight was reaching
F# C#
Nine was decent, but
[Outro]
B C# F#
I really liked it when it dimed out
B F# C#
I only really like it when it's dimed out
B C# F#
I like, "like it" like it dimed out
B C# F#
I like it, like it, like it, like it dimed out.
B C# F#
I only like it when it's dimed out
B F# C#
I only like it when it's dimed out
B C# F#
I only like it when it's dimed out
F# C# F# C# F# C#
When it's dimed out, when it's dimed out, when it's dimed out
F# C# F# C#
Whatever's inside, let it climb out
F# C# F# C#
That was his plan ..............and it's mine now
