[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
C
Mind is blown but her body's still in shock
G
Can't see nothing as she's staring at the kitchen clock
Am G
Feels so bland in the eye of the storm, it's a bedroom day
C
We should switch, we should pass ourselves around
G
Meet me at the corner, tear your dream home down
Am
It's a goddamn shit-show out here now
G
Something to tell you 'bout that someone told me 'bout
C
I know I'm weak and this weekend you'll find out
G
Yes, I sleep at that fucking whore's house now
Am
But it's cinematic, cinematic fades to black
G
Every day is a rodeo, man
[Chorus 1]
F G
No one's gonna change, nobody ever does
F G
No one's gonna change, nobody's changing for you
F G
No one's gonna change, nobody ever does
F G
And I'm never gonna do what you want me to
C G C G
[Verse 2]
C
Sitting here speaking Greek to a college blog
G
Every sentence is the same, it's just talk, talk, talk
Am
I'm one, I admit it, of a million
G
Who has it out for these soapbox idiots
C
The click clack of your high heels you're away
G
Downstairs on a tic-tac stripper's break
Am
Every dancer trying to sync to the beat
G
Every motherfucker in this place tells me the same shit
C
This whole world's got to buy you a drink, man
G Am
Got to take you to the edge and watch you throw it up
G
Every morning I could give a damn what you did last night
Just tell me how far to kick this
[Chorus 2]
F G
Can, no one's gonna change, nobody ever does
F G
No one's gonna change, no one is changing for you
F G
No one's gonna change, nobody ever does
F G
And I'm never gonna do what you want me to
[Bridge]
C Dm
I don't wanna feel so jaded
G
Getting on a plane to work things out
C G/D
When I'm alone, you're all I think about
G C G C G
But I'm never alone very long
[Verse 3]
C
They say you got to love yourself first, that's a trip
G
I've been hating myself since I was a little kid
Am
I know it's sad that the game's rained out and all the
G
Bleachers emptied out and the turnstiles spin
C
But all the good ones in the world they keep dropping dead
G
Everybody's got a bullet flying at their head
Am
I seen it coming, man, I seen it coming
G
I seen it coming, no
[Outro]
F G
No one's gonna change, hey and that's the truth
F G
No one's gonna change, oh baby not for you
F G
No one's gonna change, hey and that's the truth
F G
And I'm never gonna do what you want me to
