The first chord played is D
Verse 1:
D
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
                          Bm
Everything is average nowadays
                          D
Everything is average nowadays
                             Bm
Everyone would do it if they can
                                 G
And everything is going down the pan
                G/F#          A
And everyone is following the craze

And everything is average


Note: On the G/F# chord, just slide your first finger down to the F# note while keeping 

else in position for the G


Halfway through the verse, there is a quiet little riff which goes like this: e | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | B | -7---8-7-----7---8-7------------------------------------------------------- | G | ---------7-----------7----------------------------------------------------- | D | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | A | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | E | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | On the second verse, there is another guitar part which goes like this: e | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | B | -7-----------------------7------------------------------------------------- | G | ---(b9)-7---7--9b11----------(b9)7---7-(b9)-------------------------------------- | D | --------(b9)---------------------(b9)----(b9)------------------------------------ | A | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | E | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Chorus: G G/F# Not much to believe in A Left up on a shelf G G/F# So get your coats we're leaving A We'll just do something else
In the chorus, there is a synthesizer or something playing a riff which goes like this on guitar: e | -7-5-2-0-2---------7-5-2-0-2-5--------------------------------------------- | B | -----------0--------------------------------------------------------------- | G | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | D | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | A | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | E | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Verse 3: Ohhhh Everything is average nowadays Everything is average nowadays And everything is of no consequence Cos everyone is sitting on the fence And everything will always stay the same Cos everything is average Verse 4: Now you said you didn't mean it You threw away the book of rules You thought that we should read it I wouldn't even know how to Chorus: Not much to believe in Left up on the shelf So get your coats we're leaving We'll just do something else Middle 8: B E All I need is a ball and a wall A G A B Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather x2 At this point the chords go back to the verse, along with the first riff. Chorus: Not much to believe in Left up on the shelf So get your coats we're leaving We'll just do something else
