These chords were copied down verbatim from the recording, but if you 
transpose them downward by a half step, they should fit nicely into
guitar-friendly chords (i.E. C, Dm, Am, F, G, and so on).

Message me if you have requests for tabs of well-known songs that haven't been done yet.

  oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh


  VERSE
  C#                             Ebm
  Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table
  
  Bbm                   F#   Ab
      While I look outside
  
  C#                        Ebm
  So many things I'd say if only I were able, but I
  
  Bbm                           F#        Ab
  just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by

  C#                       Ebm
  You've got opinions man, we're all entitled to 'em
  
  Bbm                   F#   Ab
      But I never asked
  C#                                         Ebm
  So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste any more of mine
  
  Bbm                   F#   Ab
      Get out of here fast


  PRE-CHORUS
            Ebm7              F#                  Bbm
  I hate to break it to you babe, but I'm not drowning

  There's no one here to save


  CHORUS

  Who cares if you disagree, you are not me

               Ab
  Who made you king of anything, so

  Bbm               F#            C#/F
  You dare tell me who to be, who died

               Absus4  Ab
  And made you king of anything?


  INSTRUMENTAL
  C# Ebm Bbm F# Ab
  (oh oh oh oh)


  VERSE
  C#                   Ebm
  You sound so innocent, all full of good intent
  
  Bbm                 F#  Ab
  Swear you know best
  
  C#                   Ebm
  But you expect me to, jump up on board with you and ride
  
  Bbm             F#       Ab
  off into your delusional sunset

  C#                       Ebm
  I'm not the one who's lost, With no direction, oh
  
  Bbm                F# Ab
  But you'll never see, you're so
  
  C#                        Ebm
  Busy making maps, with my name on them in all caps
  
  Bbm                       F#           Ab
  You got the talking down, just not the listening


  CHORUS  
  Bbm              F#                C#
  Who cares if you disagree, you are not me

               Ab
  Who made you king of anything, so

  Bbm               F#            C#/F
  You dare tell me who to be, who died

               Absus4      (delayed)Ab
  And made you king of anything?

  
  BRIDGE
         Absus4      Ebm7
  All my life I've tried

          Bbm                   F#
  To make everybody happy while I

       Absus4   Ebm7
  Just hurt and hide, waiting for

  Ebm7       C#/F         F#      Absus4
  Someone to tell me it's my turn to decide


  INSTRUMENTAL
  C# Ebm Bbm F# Ab
  (oh oh oh oh)

  Who made you king of anything, so

  Bbm               F#            C#/F
  You dare tell me who to be, who died

               Absus4  Ab
  And made you king of anything, oh
 
  Bbm              F#                C#
  Who cares if you disagree, you are not me

               Ab
  Who made you king of anything, so

  Bbm               F#            C#/F
