Verse: (Note:don't do the "pinky thing" for the singing parts)

A5
Nobody knows everything 
       G5
We know this to be true 
F5
Everything is difficult 
            C5             G5
Except what's in front of you 
A5                                    G5
But it's complicated even under your nose 
F5
Bullshit math equations 
         C5               G5
And your highs and your lows 
         A5
And your manic depression 
    G5
It comes and it goes 
         F5
Your parasympathetic nervous system reacts 
        C5      G5
And you're in fight-or-flight mode 

A5 , C5 , G5 , F5 (Note: "pinky thing")
A5 , C5 , G5 , F5 (hold F5 for 4 measures second time) 

Verse: (same chords as 1st verse) 

 A5                                        G5
How's the world so small when the world is so large? 
 F5                                       C5                  G5
And what made the world, could I please speak to who's in charge?  
 A5                           G5                          
Everything is real but it's also just as fake 
  F5                                            C5          G5
From your daughter's birthday party to your grandmother's wake 
 A5                        G5
And your bi-polar illness, it comes and it goes 
            F5
Your parasympathetic nervous system reacts
     C5          G5
And you're in fight or flight 
   C5             F5
You're in fight or flight 
    C5            G5
You're in fight or flight mode

Verse: (same chords as 1st verse)

A5                                     G5
I've tried to know which words to sing so many times 
   F5
And I've tried to know which chords to play 
 C5                         G5
And I've tried to make it rhyme 
   A5                                G5
And I've tried to find the key that all good songs are in 
F5                                                     C5          G5
And I've tried to find the notes to make that great resounding din 
A5
But there's a bad man in everyone
 G5
No matter who we are 
F5                                  C5              G5
There's a rapist and a Nazi living in our tiny hearts 
  A5                                G5
Child pornographers and cannibals, and politicians too 
 F5                                        C5       G5
There's someone in your head waiting to fucking strangle you 

A5
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
 C5                             A5             G5
People love you more, oh never mind, oh never mind 
             A5
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson 
        C5                                A5           G5
The world won't care whether you live or die, live or die 
             A5
In fucking fact, Mrs. Robinson, 
          C5                           A5                G5
They probably hate to see your stupid face, your stupid face 
              A5
So here's to you, Mrs. Robinson, 
C5                          A5 , C5 , G5 , F5
You live in an unforgiving place.

A5 , C5 , G5 , F5 (hold F5 for 8 measures 2nd time)
