Tom: G5

Intro: G5 - C5 - G5 - C5 - G5

                C5  G5
When I was in grade six
          C5                                    G5
I used to hold open the door for a girl and she called me a wimp
               C5              C5 - A5                     G5
She said there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
           C5           C5 - A5                       G5
I politely agreed with her           I think she was right
      A5                   G5
It just never entered my mind
       A5                                       G5    C5 - C5 - A5 - G5
That a twelve year old came down to choosing sides
(with fill 1)      C5 - G5
You said that I'd die if I had nothing to do
      C5                         G5
Put a drink in my hand and I'd talk to anything that moves
         C5            C5                  A5                        G5
I just refused to give you what you think would make things right
            C5    C5                A5               G5
And just to find hate when you've lost the will to fight

A5                                         G5
And would it be really in touch with the times 
   A5                                  G5            C5 - C5 - A5 - G5
To put somebody down by choosing sides

CHORUS
            C5                   D5
And she said show us them teeth give us them braces
C5                                   D5                  
Show us that dental work that puts fear in twelve year old 
      D5 - D5 - C5
faces
        G5           A5         C5       C5                   C5 - A5
I could make you feel even half worthwhile just please don't ask me 
      G5
to smile
 (with fill 2)            C5 - G5
And times when it still feels right
  C5                             G5
I hold open the door for a girl or back down from a fight
         C5              C5 - A5                     G5
If there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
   C5            C5         A5                   G5
At least it helps us sleep easier at night

A5                        G5
It just never enters my mind
     A5                                 G5
That ever should come down to choosing sides

REPEAT CHORUS
        G5           A5          C5           C5
I could prove to you that a doer don't get hurt
     C5      C5      A5   C5     G5
Just please don't ask  me to smile
