Intro
Gm7/C
Verse 1
GG/F#Em7Cadd9
Wiped out down the stairs
GG/F#Em7Cadd9
I'll bet you there's a song in there
GG/F#Em7Cadd9GCadd9
I'm not sure I'm prepared to write it down
GG/F#EmCadd9
That guy should be me
GG/F#Em7Cadd9
I'd look much better on t.v.
GG/F#Em7
Then the world would see
Cadd9
That I can do anything
Chorus
GG/A
I can be that
G/B
But soon you'll see that
C2
I will never do anything
Gm7/C (x7, palm mute after each one)
Verse 2
Let's play tic tac toe
I'll play X, you can be the O.
Thoughts of turning pro
Have crossed my mind
I could make a mint
Fill my pockets with more than lint
I'll give you a hint
It involves the "internet"
Chorus
(x2)
I can be that
But soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
Bridge 1
CG/BAmB7/F#Em/F#
Don't write me off as an also ran
CG/BAmB7G
Just mark me down as an angry man
G/F#Em7
Got a big chip, you want a fat lip?
C1
How 'bout a mouthful of Chiclets?
CG/BAmB7/F#EmEm/F#
Life passed me by, but it's not my fault
CG/BAmB7G
I'll lick my wounds, could you pass the salt?
Chorus
(x2)
I can be that, but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
Gm7/C (x7, palm mute after each one)
Instrumental
Gm7/CBridge 2
Gm7/C
Awwwwwww, If I were the king
All my subjects they would dance and sing
They could kiss my ring
GC2B
And kiss my ass
GD/F#EmCadd9
When I'm old and grey
GD/F#EmCadd9
I'll look back on my life and say
GD/F#Em
"Give me one more day,
Cadd9
And I'll still never do anything."
Chorus
(x4)
I can be that
but soon you'll see that
I will never do anything
End on G
