Fiona Apple - Fetch The Bolt Cutters Chords

[Verse 1]
C     Bb6    Gm
I've been thinking about when I was
Em
trying to be your friend
    Dm6
I thought it was then, but it wasn't, it wasn't genuine
C                Bb6
I was just so furious but I couldn't
Gm
show you
                        Em
'Cause I know you and I know what you can do
                  Dm6
And I don't wanna war with you, I won't afford it
 
You get sore even when you win
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                              Bb6
And you maim when you're on offense
                              Gm
But you kill when you're on defense
                            Em
And you've got them all convinced
                               Dm6
That you're the means and the end
 
All the VIPs and PYTs and wannabes
 
Afraid of not being your friend
 
 
[Verse 3]
C                         Bb6
And I've always been too smart for that
                       Gm
But you know what? My heart was not
                  Em
I took it like a kid, you see
                            Dm6
The cool kids voted to get rid of me
 
And I'm ashamed of what they did to me
 
What I let get done
 
It stole my fun, it stole my fun
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
 C   Bb6         Gm     Em
He sings so nice,   I guess he tries (I've been thinking about when I was trying to be your friend)
      Dm6
(I thought it was then, but it wasn't, it wasn't genuine)
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)
 C
Whatever happens, whatever happens (Whatever happens)
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters
 
 
[Verse 4]
C                Bb6
While I had not yet found my bearings
      Gm                 Em
Those it girls hit the ground
               Dm6
Comparing the way I was to the way she was
 
Sayin' I'm not stylish enough and I cry too much
                      C
And I listened because I hadn't found
   Bb6
my own voice yet
    Gm                       Em
So all I could hear was the noise that
Dm6
People make when they don't know sh*t
 
But I didn't know that yet
 
 
[Verse 5]
C                            Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill
Gm                              Em
When they came around I would stand real still
Dm6
A girl can roll her eyes at me and kill
Dm6
I got the idea I wasn’t real
C                 Bb6        Gm
I thought being blacklisted would be
               Em
grist for the mill
Dm6
Until I realized I'm still here (I'm still here)
C                            Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill
Gm                              Em
Shoes that were not made for running up that hill
Dm6
And I need to run up that hill, I need to run up that hill
 
I will, I will, I will, I will, I will
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
 
 
[Outro]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters (I will, I will)
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (Whatever happens, whatever happens), fetch the bolt cutters
