A                          E
  It's alright, David, I'm fucked up again,
    F#m
But I'm tired of waiting,
   A
Of being your friend,
              F#m                             Bm
Cause you're stuck on the first page and I'm close to the end
     E                       A
So, just shut your mouth and pretend
 
                                  E
You scream through your cellphone and you watch your TV
               F#m
Sometimes you look like a fool
               A
Sometimes you look right past me
    F#m                      Bm
But I'm the one singing you songs in the end
     E                         A
So goddamn, I guess we'll be friends
 
    F#m         Bm    F#m         G#dim      A
And oh, all the days pile up like used paper plates
    B                E
And you know but you still go
 
 
Piano Solo:  A  E  F#m  A  F#m Bm
A
 
                        E
Pictures and movies and books and cartoons
         F#m                           A
When I'm lookin' at them, sometimes I'm thinkin' bout you
    F#m                         Bm
And writing down things that I think you should do
          E                      A
You know, I might get sick of me, too
 
    F#m          Bm   F#m         G#dim       A
And oh, all the days pile up like used razor blades
    B                E
And you know but you still go
 
    A                     E
So, David I'm here and my fingers are sore
     F#m                       A
From writin' down words that I know you'll ignore
     F#m                         Bm
When each one comes out it feels more like before
    E                    A
So, David I've evened the score
 E                     A
David I've evened the score

So, in case you haven't realized, you don't really need the capo, but it helps a lot and
your hand a lot less achy at the end because it's just the other half of the song that
going to be baring frets.
 
You can try to use G#m instead of G#dim but I'm a theory freak and it bothers me to hear
wrong chord so decide for yourself.  I will admit G#dim is a hard chord esp. to hit as
as you have to, so mess it with some.
