Capo 3
Courtney Love Intro
[Am]No thesis existed for
burning cities down at such a rampant rate
[C]No graphics and no
fucking powerpoint presentation
[Am]So they just DIY'd that
shit and built their own bombs
[C]She's his suicide blond, she's number than gold
Verse 1
[Am]Are you ready for another bad poem?
[Am]One more off key anthem
[Am]Let your teeth sink in[Dm]in
Remember me as I [F]was not as I am
[Am]And I said "I'll check in
tomorrow if I don't wake up dead,"
[Dm]I kept wishing she had blonde
ambition and she'd [F]let it go to my head
Pre-Chorus
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[Am]If my love is a weapon
[Am]There's no second guessing when I say
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[G]If my heart is a grenade
[G]You pull the pin and say:
Chorus
[C]We're all fighting growing old
[G]We're all fighting growing old
In [Am]the h[F]hopes
Of a [Am]few minutes [F]more
[C]To get on St. Peter's list
[G]But you need to lower your [Am]standards [F]
Cause it'[Am]it's never
[F]Getting any better than this
Courtney Love's Part
[Am]We are professional ashes of roses
This kerosene's live
You settled your score
[C]This is where you come to
beg, unborn and unshaven
[Am]Killing fields of fire to a congress of ravens
[C]This is what we do, we nightmare you
Verse 2
[Am]I'm about to make the sweat roll backwards
[Am]And your heart beat in reverse
[Am]Our guts can't be reworked
[Dm]As alone as a little white church
[F]In the middle of the desert getting burned
But I'll [Am]take your heart served up two ways
[Am]I sing a bitter song
[Dm]I'm the lonelier version of you
I just [F]don't know where it went wrong
Pre-Chorus
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[Am]If my love is a weapon
[Am]There's no second guessing when I say
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[G]If my heart is a grenade
[G]You pull the pin and say:
Chorus
[C]We're all fighting growing old
[G]We're all fighting growing old
In [Am]the h[F]hopes
Of a [Am]few minutes [F]more
[C]To get on St. Peter's list
[G]But you need to lower your [Am]standards [F]
Cause it'[Am]it's never
[F]Getting any better than this
Interlude x2
[Am]Rat a tat tat
[Am]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[Am]It's never
[Am]Getting any better than this
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[F]It's never
[F]Getting any better than this
Courtney Love Bridge
[C]She's sick and she's wrong
She's young dirty blonde
[G]And you sink inside her like a suicide bomb
[Am]He says "I've seen bigger"
She says "I've lit better"
[F]And they throw the matches down into the glitter
[C]Not a dry eye left in the house
[G]Go boy, go boy, run for your life
[Am]Go boy, go boy, run for your life
[F]Go boy, go boy, run for your life
Chorus
We're all fighting growing old
We're all fighting growing old
In [Am]the h[F]hopes
Of a [Am]few minutes [F]more
[C]To get on St. Peter's list
[G]But you need to lower your [Am]standards [F]
Cause it'[Am]it's never
[F]Getting any better than this
Interlude x2
[Am]Rat a tat tat
[Am]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[Am]It's never
[Am]Getting any better than this
[F]Rat a tat tat
[F]Rat a tat tat tat hey
[F]It's never
[F]Getting any better than this
