  B 
That was you up on the mountain  

All alone and all surrounded  
E 
Walking on the ground you're breaking  
  
Laughing at the life you're wasting  
B 
One, two tries won't do it  

You do it all your life and you 

Never get through it  
E 
Everything they had to say  

Had been erased in just one day  
  

B                  E 
Good try, we don't like it 
B                  E 
Good try, we won't take that shit 
G#m  C#m    F# 
I    can't  win 
  

B 
Things in bars that people do  

When no one wants to talk to you  
E 
Failing can be quite a breeze, he  

Told me that these girls were easy  
B 
Happy that you said you'd mount me  

Felt unlucky when you found me  
E 
Some nights come up empty handed  

Yes, I'll take it  
  

B                E 
Wait now, by the sidewalk  
B                  E 
Hold on, yes, I'll be right back  
G#m  C#m    F# 
I    can't  win 
  
      B          E 
Yeah, I wait for something 
B                 E 
Cool it, we won't take that shit  
B                  E 
Good try, we don't like it  
B                  E 
Hold on, yes, I'll be right back
