 F (133211@1)                     GMan (320003@1)I could have, had a, big sound
 F (133211@1)                     G (320003@1)        G#dim7
But I love to, let my, friends down

Fmaj7/c      C/g           Dm (xx0231@1) Em (022000@1) AmFmaj7/c (x02210@1)     C/g           Dm (xx0231@1) Em (022000@1) G (320003@1)VERSE 2:
Fmaj7/c      C/g         Dm (xx0231@1)  Em (022000@1)  AmFewer (x02210@1)moving parts means fewer broken pieces
     Fmaj7/c     C/g       Dm (xx0231@1)   Em (022000@1)     GWhen (320003@1)every other start requires a brand new theosis
Fmaj7/c         C/g              G#dim7
One good friend remarks with a rightfully angry:
 Am (x02210@1)  C/g   Fmaj7/c                  C/g
"Jesus dude! None of us know what to do with you"
         Dm (xx0231@1)           EmTo (022000@1)which I in my pride responded
           G"I've (320003@1)got news for you:
G#dim7
None of you have to, cause"

Back to the chorus
through the interlude, end on C/g.
