(ver. 1)
Matt The Electrician
Capo 3
[Intro]
F C G C (x2)


[Verse 1]
         F                          C
I owe thirty-five dollars to the library
       G               C
At Humboldt State University
         F                  C
But I dropped out fifteen years ago
        G                     Bb        C
And I never paid it and I'm still not gonna

    F             C
I never got my report card
         G                        C
But I didn't go to class and I didn't work hard
        F                   C             
So I didn't wanna know how bad I did
        G                     Bb     C
But I know I never made the dean's list


[Chorus]
       Am          E     
And college is a waste of time
         F                        C
If you wanna be a baker or a candlestick maker
 Am                 E
You still have to wait in line
         F                          G
At the bank drive through and the train tracks too
          F                 C 
Behind people like me with no degree
           G                     C
'Cause I know the conductor and he knows me
            F                            C
You might have a nicer car, but I've traveled pretty far
     G                Bb    C
And all I have is an old guitar


[Bridge]
F C G C (x2)


[Verse 2]
  F                C
Forty bucks for a bag of weed
          G               C
In the summer nineteen ninety three
  F               C
Forty dollars is all I have
         G               Bb            C
And it isn't mine, it belongs to my parents

      F                         C
Oh, five hundred points for a roll of cookie dough
           G                 C
In the cafeteria they got sloppy joes
           F               C
And the sloppy joes cost three points
         G                     Bb     C
I won't eat in the spring but hey, cookie dough


[Chrous]
       Am          E     
And college is a waste of time
         F                    C
If you wanna be a diver or a big rig driver
 Am                E
You still have to go to the store
      F                     G
And share the road with a wide load
         F            C 
Who's taking up all three lanes
          G                          C
And you can't get around him it's a big pain
           F                     C
And the driver hasn't slept in three whole days
         G                            C  
But he knows one thing and that's freeways
               F                  C
He's got a Gatorade bottle where he goes pee
       G                           Bb      C
And you're behind him with your college degree


[Verse 3/Outro]
         F                          C 
I owe thirty-five dollars to the library
       G               C
At Humboldt State University
         F                  C
But I dropped out fifteen years ago
       G                     Bb        C
So I never paid it and I'm still not gonna..
