Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
They  say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6  percent of their brain
 97 percent use 3 percent and the rest  goes down the drain
 I'll never  know which one I am but I'll bet  you my last dime
 99  percent think with 3  percent 100 percent  of the time
 64 percent of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot
 82.4 percent of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not
 I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt
 I need another double shot of something 90 proof
 I got too much to think about
Too  much to think  about
Too  much to figure  out
Stuck  between hope  and doubt
 It's too  much to think  about
 They say 92 percent of everything you learned in school was just bullshit you'll never need
 84 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed
 Because 90 percent of the world's population links possessions to success
 Even though 80 percent of the wealthiest 1 percent of the population
 Drinks to an alarming excess
 More money, more stress
 It's too much to think about
 Too much to figure out
 Stuck between hope and doubt
 It's too much to think about
 Pick it now
 84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their jobs
 They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs
 There's this little bank not far from here I've been watching now for a while
 Lately all I can think about's how bad I wanna go out in style
 And it's too much to think about
 Too much to figure out
 Stuck between hope and doubt
 It's too much to think about
 That's right
 It's too much to think about
 Amen
 It's too much to think about
 Mmm hmmm

They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs
There's this little bank not far from here I've been watching now for a while
Lately all I can think about's how bad I wanna go out in style

And it's too much to think about
Too much to figure out
Stuck between hope and doubt
It's too much to think about
That's right
It's too much to think about
Amen
It's too much to think about
Mmm hmmm
