Kill the President
Hi! This is my first Tab, so if I've made any mistakes let me know!
Cadd4 is just a C with an f on the high e string added. I'm not sure if it's
actually the correct name for the chord so correct me if I'm wrong.
Also, this is an acoustic version I made by listening to the original song as well
as an acoustic rendition of it, so it likely doesn't exactly match either. I use
almost all barre chords except the intro and very end.
[Intro:]
Cadd4 C (X6)
Cadd4 C
What's the bullshit for?
Cadd4 C
Verbal battlefield. Syllables of war.
C
I shut myself off. It happens again.
C G F#
You're not my friend. You're not my friend.
You're not my friend.
C G A F (X2)
[switch to barre chords]
C G A
The winter knocked down my door like a selfish bitch
F C
I'm glad that you haven't got your wish
G
in the cold, all alone, I've been thinking of
A F
everyone but you.
C
And it feels like seventh grade again
G
and none of this will ever end
A
I'm just your public malcontent
F
another extraneous trend.
C
Don't try to be like me
G
because I'm not one to compete
A F
to obtain the status of a symbol of idolatry.
[Chorus:]
A F C
This time I'd really rather be alone.
G
Can we forget this? I can just go home.
A F F G
This time I'd really rather be alone.
C G A
Acting unaffected by this hand of fate.
F C
Saying "everything's ok!" with a straight face.
G A F G
I remember when you said I could count on your for anything.
C
...and I still hold on.
G
You'll hold off and play another dumb charade again.
A F
I'm driving my car home and never walking in the rain again.
C G
I miss the smell of Taco Bell and places that we knew too well.
F
Driving me crazy. Driving me crazy. Driving me crazy.
F
Driving me crazy!
[Chorus:]
A F C
This time I'd really rather be alone.
A
Can we forget this mess and just go home?
A F G G#
This time I'd really rather be alone.
A G F A
I'm bleeding profusely from my insides
C Em G A
While you're smiling 'cause you're stealing all of my best lines.
G F G
I'm doubled over and I'm taking my own side.
C Em G
Over and over again. I'm so useless.
Em A G F Em
Now you're becoming everything.
Dm Em F
(Well was I ever anything?)
C Em G
Everyone I love always leaves me.
Em A G F Em
My judgment's been off every time.
Dm Em F
(You're words will always still be mine)
[Chorus:]
A F C
This time I'd really rather be alone.
G
Can we forget this? I could just go home.
A F G G#
This time I'd really rather be alone.
A G F A
I'm bleeding profusely from my insides
C Em G A
While you're smiling 'cause you're stealing all of my best lines.
G F G
I'm doubled over and I'm taking my own side.
[Ska upstrokes pattern here]
C G A
And how I'll be slapped on crowded streets.
Em Dm
And in some lame cry of defeat
Em
I'll open up
Dm
I'll shout it loud:
G C
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound!"
G A
I'll be slapped on crowded streets.
Em Dm
And in some lame cry of defeat
Em
I'll open up
Dm
I'll shout it loud:
Em F Dm
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound! Fuck that!"
Em C Dm
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound! Fuck that!"
Em F G
"Fuck that! Turn off the new sound!"
1234
[Chorus:]
C Em G
Over and over again. I'm so useless.
Em A G F Em
Now you're becoming everything.
Dm Em F
(Well was I ever anything?)
C Em G
Everyone I love always hates me.
Em A G F Em Dm
My judgment's off this time (for the last time.)
C Em G
No one in this world is ever listening.(What's left beside me now?)
A G F Em Dm Em F
Pay attention now. Pay attention now.
C Em G Em
No one in this world is ever listening.(Pay attention. Pay attention.)
A F G
Pay attention now. Better, pay attention now.
C
Now. Now. Now.
[For this part, I keep playing the C chord, but change the bass note, like this]
E|---------------------------------------------|
B|-1----------1-----1-----------------------1--|
G|---------------------------------------------|
D|-2----------2-----2-----------------------2--|
A|-3----3-3-3-2-2-2-0-0-0-------------------3--|
E|------------------------3-3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1----|
C C
At home alone again all night.
(At home alone again all night...)
C
Expect the worst and you'll be right.
