[Intro]
G#   G#   G#   G#  
G#   G#   G#   G#  
 
 
[Verse]
    A
She ordered me Newcastle
 
And handed me a Marlboro
 
Stuck a dove in my right hand
     G#
She took a quick picture
 
But even when we squinted
 
I didn't look so much like Robert Plant
 
 
[Verse]
             A
She flew a flag she made from a bedsheet
 
A sideways skull and a 
lopsided pentagram
     B
Said   asymmetrical's 
way more diabolical
     A                
You don't want to make 
E
it look too perfect, man
      B
The trick is not getting cynical
            A          
She had a hairbrush mic 
E
and a fantasy band
    A             
She opened up with 
E
We Are The Champions
      A                         E
Went right into Under my Wheels
        A                 
I was trying to figure out 
N.C.
how I feel
 
 
[Chorus]
E                         D
    Faded denim with the buttons and badges
     A
    Laminates and backstage passes
     E                     
    Jacket held together by 
D               A
the rock band patches
E                         
    They let her smoke but 
D
she can't have matches 
           B
    After last week's pyro disaster
E                           
    She'd like me better if 
D                  A
I didn't wear glasses
 
 
[Instrumental]
G#   G#   
G#   G#  
 
 
[Verse]
                A
She said we're gonna do a 
show at The Pyramids
 
She said she needs to take a 
call from her lawyers
     G#
Introduced me to the dudes that 
she's calling her crew
 
An assortment of 
sad self destroyers
         A
Sitting six to a table in 
the room off the kitchen
 
Telling stories about 
things they imagined
     B
Like after the show 
we got roofed on the Reeperbahn
 A                       E
Woke up in a video cabin
       B
I was rolling my eyes at
the ritual lies
  A                               E  A  N.C.
Okay, maybe half of that happened
 
 
[Chorus]
         E
    She bites down on the the caplet
              D
    And the blood comes from her mouth
               A
    But it's hard to fully 
rock in a halfway house
E                              
    The band would be better if 
D                     A
they weren't such burnouts
E                           
    The Beatle boots and the 
D
glam rock top hat
B
    Isn't gonna make any difference
E                      
    It never works when 
D             A
no one listens
 
 
[Instrumental]
E      E7   C   Bm A   G#  
E      E7   C   Bm A   G#  
Bm A   G#  
 
 
[Chorus]
E                         D
    Faded denim with the buttons and badges
     A
    Laminates and backstage passes
     E                     
    Jacket held together by     
D
the rock band patches
A
    They let her smoke but 
she can't have matches
     E
    Bites down on the capsule and
          D
    The blood comes from her mouth
              B
    But it's hard to really
rock in a halfway house
E                       
    The pesky problem of 
D            A
the tepid turnout
 
 
[Chorus]
                 E
    I said I've got a band too
               
    We're called 
D
The Price of Progress
           A
    We've got a reputation as 
New Hampshire's hardest
E                          
    Our singer's psycho and 
D
our fans are violent
    A
    Once they let me loose 
we're probably touring Europe
E                         
    Morning meetings in the 
D
room off the kitchen
B
    New medication for the 
same old depression
E                       
    It never works when
D            A
no one listens
                   E       
    But it's sure nice to 
D      A 
meet some fellow musicians
