g[C]ive it a ch[G]ance before you d[D]ie
[C]just got one d[B]ay to get a l[E]ife
VERSE 2: same chords
everyday procrastinate you won't get very far
listen to religion try and tell you who you are
marionettes on tv sets parade across your screen
don't know what it all means
think there is no point in trying to get up each day
when problems that confound you only speed your slow decay
future's relegated to a bland pathetic waste
can't find a better way but you don't
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
E F#-Gii-D C B D (repeat)
[E]know you'll never make it you don't [F#]eve[-]n [Gii]want [-]to t[D]ry
[C]waiting for the day when you can cu[B]rl up and d[D]ie
[E]no one's gonna listen no one's o[F#]ut [-]to [Gii]get [-]yo[D]u
[C]blame anyone you want you g[B]et the li[D]fe you ch[E]oose
so wh[C]en're you gonna [D]get a clue
[E]the wo[C]rld's not gonna w[D]ait for you
[E]only y[C]ou can make it a[G]ll come tr[D]ue [C] [B]
VERSE 3: same chords
a never ending struggle but one day you see the light
may not think you'll make it but
won't give up without a fight
recline to aspirations of what you think is right
fight on with all your might but you don't
repeat CHORUS and that's it
