All Boy Band

[D]One more set, ba[A]by, you'll survive
[G]Just play guitar[D], don't look them in the eye
[D]They're all here[A] to see you tonight
[G]Such expectation[D]s, impress the writers
[D]All boy band, al[A]l boy attitude
[G]Break your bass,[D] we'll get them in the mood
[D]If you want I wi[A]ll sing for you
[G]Anything girl, a[D/A]nything girl

[D]  [G]  [A]

[D]When every mouth[A] that sings complains
[G]And honesty can [D]be replaced
[D]There are sadder[A] things to say
[G]I guess it's tru[D]e, I looked for it
[D]A tragedy that's[A] gonna fit
[G]The chorus that [D]I need
More than [A]anything

[D]Is it happiness [A]is so impossible
[G]That you can't touch it
[D]Even when it's close to you?
[D]Or is it emptine[A]ss is still so probable
[G]That you're too [D]scared to even reach for it?

[D]Is it happiness [A]is so impossible
[G]That you can't touch it
[D]Even when it's close to you?
[D]Or is it emptine[A]ss is still so probable
[G]That you're scar[D]ed to even reach for it?

[D]You can't pretend
[G]Is that what this is about?
[G]The feeling's go[A]ne but the album[D] just came out
[D]And even though there is[G] no meaning now
[A]I can't stop singing, can't stop singing

[D]Well, here's the[A] book I stole it from
[D]All repeated and[G] tired-tounged
[D]There's [A]still no[G]thing to say
[D]And I can say wi[A]th confidence
[D]There are a hund[G]red bands that sound like us
[D]But that[A]'s not i[G]mportant
And it [A]never was

It's the [A]feeling that creeps in when it is [D]late
And you [A]pull the van to the side of the interstate[D]
you [A]lay on the roof, the stars hang above
And you wonder what they'd look like if you were in [G]love

[D]Well tonight I am ecstat[A]ic with the soun[G]d of the amplifiers
[D]Filling up the e[A]mptiness[G] with distortion
[D]I can see the kid has be[A]en crying, he pu[G]ts his mouth on a pacifier
[D]A microphone, a [A]memory, [G]an emotion
[D]Are those people at the [A]bar, they look m[G]ore like statues
[D]Expressionless, [A]they lis[G]ten to the first band
[D]I'm looking for [A]a paypho[G]ne, a familiar voice
[D]I need someone w[G]ho understands
[D]I need someone w[G]ho understands
[D]I need someone w[G]ho understands
[D]That thi[A]s isn't how I wa[D]nted it to be.
