Depression Acoustic Chords

(ver. 1)
The Homeless Gospel Choir
             G
They said to give up, and you grow up
     D
That my songs make them wanna throw up
             C
That I'm not original
   D           C          G
Or catchy, or clever, or smart

             G
They said my guitar would sound better
       D
At the bottom of the Ohio river
     C
That I should get a job
       D        G
At the Route 51 KMart

    G
And sometimes I think I might agree with
D                                  C
My old friends that don't call me anymore
                                    G
To hang out or catch up or go drink beer

    G
And maybe I am not the same
      D
Thank God that I am not the same
      C
And I hope to be weirder than this
D              G
This time next year

     C                 D
With friends like that who needs friends
              G            Em
When you have seasonal depression
   C              D
In Western Pennsylvania
      C
Or anywhere
          D      C           G
You're afraid to just be yourself

G
Sometimes I feel like I'm stuck here
D
Trapped in the wrong gear
        C
Like an empty pack of cigarettes
        D
Like an endless bill called college debt

    G                                 D
And I don't know when I first started feeling so alone
         C                         D
Like how everyone else has a place and I simply don't
G
And sometimes you wake up in your 30's
D
Take a look around
    C                                D
And realise that you're lucky not to be a ghost in a ghost town

      C                D
With friends like that who needs friends
              G          Em
When you have seasonal depression
   C              D
In Western Pennsylvania
     C
Or anywhere
         D       C           G
You're afraid to just be yourself

G
Sometimes I think that I'll die here
D
Sometimes that's alright
C
Sometimes those words haunt me
D
And cut me like a butterknife

    G
And if your friends are a**holes
            D
Then you're better off alone
   C                                  D
Or you can go make new friends at the retirement home

G                                D
Or you can move to Hazelwood and I will be your friend
C                               D
And we can make a record in our brand new punk rock band

     C                 D
With friends like that who needs friends
              G        Em
When you have seasonal depression
   C       D
In Western Pennsylvania

   G
Or anywhere...
C D  G
A-ny-where
