F# Stuck in the jet wash B Bad trip I couldn't get off D#m And maybe I bit off more than I could chew B And overhead of the aqua blue F# Fall to your knees bring on the rapture B Blessed be the boys time can't capture D#m On film or between the sheets B I always fall from your window to the pitch black streets B And with the black banners raised D#m As the crooked smiles fade B D#m Former heroes who quit too late B D#m C# Just wanna fill up the trophy case again Chorus: F# B And in the end, I'd do it all again D#m I think you're my best friend B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright F# B I'll be yours, when it rains it pours D#m Stay thirsty like before B Don't you know that the kids aren't all, kids aren't alright I'm not passive but aggressive Take note, it's not impressive Empty your sadness like you're dumping your purse On my bedroom floor We put your curse in reverse And it's our time now if you want it to be Maul the world like the carnival bear set free And your love is anemic and I can't believe That you couldn't see it coming from me And I still feel that rush in my veins It twists my head just a bit to think All those people in those old photographs I've seen are dead Chorus D#m F# And sometimes I just want to sit around, B and gaze at my shoes yeah D#m F# And let your dirty sadness fill me up, B just like a balloon Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC#  D#m  Em  F#  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
