Kill the President Lyrics
Hi! This is my first Tab, so if I've made any mistakes let me know!
Cadd4 is just a C with an f on the high e string added. I'm not sure if it's
actually the correct name for the chord so correct me if I'm wrong.
Also, this is an acoustic version I made by listening to the original song as well
as an acoustic rendition of it, so it likely doesn't exactly match either. I use
almost all barre chords except the intro and very end.
Intro:
What's the bullshit for?
Verbal battlefield. Syllables of war.
I shut myself off. It happens again.
You're not my friend. You're not my friend.
You're not my friend.
switch to barre chords
The winter knocked down my door like a selfish bitch
I'm glad that you haven't got your wish
in the cold, all alone, I've been thinking of
everyone but you.
And it feels like seventh grade again
and none of this will ever end
I'm just your public malcontent
another extraneous trend.
Don't try to be like me
because I'm not one to compete
to obtain the status of a symbol of idolatry.
horus:
This time I'd really rather be alone.
Can we forget this? I can just go home.
This time I'd really rather be alone.
Acting unaffected by this hand of fate.
Saying "everything's ok!" with a straight face.
I remember when you said I could count on your for anything.
...and I still hold on.
You'll hold off and play another dumb charade again.
I'm driving my car home and never walking in the rain again.
I miss the smell of Taco Bell and places that we knew too well.
Driving me crazy. Driving me crazy. Driving me crazy.
Driving me crazy!
horus:
This time I'd really rather be alone.
Can we forget this mess and just go home?
This time I'd really rather be alone.
I'm bleeding profusely from my insides
While you're smiling 'cause you're stealing all of my best lines.
I'm doubled over and I'm taking my own side.
Over and over again. I'm so useless.
Now you're becoming everything.
(Well was I ever anything?)
Everyone I love always leaves me.
My judgment's been off every time.
(You're words will always still be mine)
horus:
This time I'd really rather be alone.
Can we forget this? I could just go home.
This time I'd really rather be alone.
I'm bleeding profusely from my insides
While you're smiling 'cause you're stealing all of my best lines.
I'm doubled over and I'm taking my own side.
Ska upstrokes pattern here
And how I'll be slapped on crowded streets.
And in some lame cry of defeat
I'll open up
I'll shout it loud:
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound!"
I'll be slapped on crowded streets.
And in some lame cry of defeat
I'll open up
I'll shout it loud:
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound! Fuck that!"
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound! Fuck that!"
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound!"
horus:
Over and over again. I'm so useless.
Now you're becoming everything.
(Well was I ever anything?)
Everyone I love always hates me.
My judgment's off this time (for the last time.)
No one in this world is ever listening.(What's left beside me now?)
Pay attention now. Pay attention now.
No one in this world is ever listening.(Pay attention. Pay attention.)
Pay attention now. Better, pay attention now.
Now. Now. Now.
or this part, I keep playing the chord, but change the bass note, like this
At home alone again all night.
(At home alone again all night...)
Expect the worst and you'll be right.
