Intro: D G A

VERSE CHORDS
(D)
Well a teacher of mine once told me
That life was just a list of 
(G)
disappoints and defeats
And you could 
(A) 
only do your best,
And I said 
(D)
"That's a fucking cop-out, you're just washed up and your tired, and when 
(G)
 I get to your age I 
(A)
won't be such a coward"
But these 
(Em) 
days I sit at home, known to 
(G) 
shout at my TVAnd 
(Bm) 
Punk Rock didn't live up to what I 
(A) 
hoped that it could be
And all the 
(Em)
things that I believed with all my 
(G)
heart when I was young
Are just 
(Bm)
 coasters for beers and clean 
(A)
surfaces for drugs
And I 
(G)
packed all my 
(Em)
pamflets with my 
(G)
 bibles at the 
(A)
back of the 
(D)
shelf

CHORUS
Oh but 
(D) 
once we were 
(A) 
young, and we were 
(Bm)crass enough to 
(G) care
But I guess you 
(Em)
 live and learn
(A), 
we won't make that 
(Em) 
mistake again, 
(A)
no
Oh but 
(D)
surely just for one 
(A)
day, we could 
(Bm)
fight and we could
(G)
 win
And if only for a 
(Em)little while,
(A) 
we could insist on the 
(Em)
impossible 
(A)


BRIDGE

Well we've 

(Bm) 
been a good few hours drinking so I'm going to 
(A)
say what everyone's thinkng If we're
(G)
Stuck on this ship and it's 
(D)
sinking then we 
(Em) 
Might as well 
(A) 
Have A 
(D) 
Parade 

Cos if it's 
(Bm)
Still going to hurt in the morning and a 
(A) 
Better plan's yet to get forming Then 
(G)
Wheres the harm in spending an 
(D) 
Evening in 
(Em) 
Manning the 
(A)
Old barri-
(G)
Cades
