[Intro]
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo


[Verse 1]
                   G
I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling,
      D             Dsus4       C
She's living, she's golden, she lives for me

She says she lives for me
G           D       Dsus4
Ovation her own motivation
C                                     G
She comes around and she goes down on me
                D           Dsus4
And I make her smile like a drug for you
C
Do ever what you want to do
            G
Coming over you
           D               Dsus4
Keep on smiling what we go through
C
One stop to the rhythm that divides you


[Pre-Chorus]
G                  D        Dsus4         C
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
                                     G
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
               D          Dsus4     C
Come on like a freak show takes the stage

We give them the games we play she said


[Chorus 1]
G      D    Dsus4 C
I want something else
                       G
To get me through this
D              Dsus4 C
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
G      D   Dsus4 C
I want something else, I'm not listening
         G  D Dsus4 C
when you say good~~~bye


[Post-chorus]
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C       
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo


[Verse 2]
               G
The sky it was gold, it was rose
      D           Dsus4            C
I was taking sips of it through my nose

And I wish I could get back there
           G
Some place back there
               D                  Dsus4
Smiling in the pictures you would take
C
Doing crystal meth will lift

you up until you break
          G                D
It won't stop I won't come down
       Dsus4        C
I keep stock with a tick-tock

rhythm, a bump for the drop
           G
And then I bumped up
           D              Dsus4
I took the hit that I was given
       C
Then I bumped again
N.C.
Then I bumped again, said


[Pre-Chorus]
D               C
  How do I get back there to
      D
The place where I
        C
fell asleep inside you?
 D              C
How do I get myself back to
      D
The place where you said


[Chorus 1]
G      D    Dsus4 C
I want something else
                       G
To get me through this
D              Dsus4 C
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
G      D   Dsus4 C
I want something else, I'm not listening
         G  D Dsus4 C
when you say Good~~~bye


[Verse 3]
G                D
I believe in the sand
           C
beneath my toes
N.C.
The beach gives a feeling
          G
An earthy feeling
    D
I believe in the
           C
faith that grows
N.C.
And the four right
           G           D Dsus4
chords can make me cry
C
When I'm with you I
                  G
feel like I could die
N.C.
And that would be 
D   Dsus4    C
all right,   all right


[Bridge]
               D
and when the plane came in
     C                   D
She said she was crashing
               C
The velvet it rips in
              D
the city we tripped
                C
On the urge to feel alive
     G
But now I'm struggling

to survive
       D
Those days you were wearing
      C
That velvet dress
 D
You're the priestess
   C
I must confess
      D
Those little red panties
      C
They pass the test
      G (hold)
Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress
D      C
One...
D*                   C*
And you hold me, and we're broken.
            G
Still it's all that I wanna do, just a little now!


[Verse 4]
G           D
Feel myself head
      Dsus4 C
made of the ground
N.C.
I'm scared I'm not coming
G   D Dsus4  C
down, no     no, and I won't
        G      D  Dsus4
run for my life
C
She's got her jaws now
                  G
locked down in a smile
               D    Dsus4 C
But nothing is alright,   alright


[Chorus 2]
G      Dsus4     C
I want something else
          G             Dsus4
To get me through this
C
 life, baby
G      Dsus4     C
I want something else

I'm not listening
G        Dsus4  C     G/B Am
when you say goodbye
    C G/B Am
goodbye
    C G/B Am
goodbye
    G  D Dsus4 C G D Dsus4 C
goodbye


[Post-chorus]
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C       
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G            D       Dsus4     C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo


[Outro]
               G
The sky it was gold it was rose
      D           Dsus4            C
I was taking sips of it through my nose
N.C.
And I wish I could get back there
           G
Some place back there
       D         Dsus4   C
in the place you used to start
G            D       Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C       
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

G      D   Dsus4 C
I want something else

C G/B Am**
