it's funny

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
 
C                     Am
I have nothing to say to you
G                  Em
So you hung up the phone
F                    A
Does it make me an optimist
Am                            C
Or just stupid for trying at all?
G                Em
Driving 60 thru inwood
F                   A
And your high as a kite
Am                                C
Plus your talk with your hands a lot
D                       Em
And you almost ran through the light
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                    Am
I was holding out for you
C                     Em
Every time you let me down
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C                    Am
Picked me up in your volvo
G                 Em
We just sat on my street
F                    A
Couldn’t get all the words out
Am                     C
So you started yelling at me
G                     Em
Broke my heart in the hallway
F                A
As my teacher walked by
Am                       C
Went to the stairwell to call my mom
Em                        D
Can you pick me up before I die?
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                    Am
I was holding out for you
C                     Em
Every time you let me down
 
 
[Bridge]
 
C                        Am
Getting too high in your mom’s office
G                          Bb
Walking the streets like nobody would notice
D                     Em
Fight in the pharmacy you’re buying us condoms
Am                               C
Someone you knew at the register saw us
D                          Am
I was a child and you were just damaged
F                            A
Brought me along, just to say that you managed
Em                          C
To love a nice girl, not end up like your parents
D                          Em
But really we all mirror them in the end
C                          Am
It’s funny, if it’s not then I’ll start crying
D                          Em
So it’s funny, if it’s not then I’ll start crying
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em                Am
I was holding out for you
 C                    Em
Every time you let me down
 
Em                Am
I was holding out for you
 C                    Em
Every time you let me down
